How does a hair loss treatment work?

by Manya Verma Health care and lifestyle


Hair loss can be the result of heredity, certain medical conditions, hormonal changes, medications, etc. Even though it's more common in men, women experience hair loss too. When you start to lose excessive hair from your scalp, it will eventually lead to baldness. The most common cause of baldness is losing hair due to heredity with age. While some people choose to leave this condition untreated, others often opt for a suitable treatment option to stop hair loss and restore growth.

 

When should you see a doctor?

The medications available for the treatment of pattern baldness at one of the leading best hospitals in Gurgaon include:

 

Minoxidil - This is an over-the-counter medication suitable for both men and women. It is in the form of a liquid or foam that needs to be applied on the scalp daily where the hair has fallen out. However, you may not see the results until the first six months. You must keep using it consistently to see the results and then retain the benefits.

Hair transplant surgery


The top of the head is usually affected in the most common kind of permanent hair loss. Hair transplant becomes an effective way to make the most of your head. During the procedure at our top hospital in Gurgaon, patches of skin containing hair are removed. These hair are then implanted into the bald sections follicle by follicle. However, more than one surgery may be needed to get the desired result.

Laser therapy


Laser therapy is also used to treat hereditary hair loss in men and women. Some studies have shown that hair growth is stimulated when hair follicles absorb laser light at a certain level.
