Medical Solutions for Hair Loss

There's many an option of medical hair loss solutions that can be administered by doctors and nurse practitioners, and in this list we will share a few with you. Here they are listed in order of least invasive to most.

Topical minoxidil - also known as rogaine, can increase the follicle size to be more robust and encourage girthier growth

Alma TED - needle free frequencies to increase hair growth and density

Oral minoxidil - increases follicle size to be more robust and encourages growth. Can make peach-fuzz into more permanent, terminal hair. (Also can cause hair growth in other areas)

Spironolactone - blocks androgens (male hormones) that can cause female pattern baldness, does not cause hair growth in other areas outside of the top of head.

PRP injections - plasma from your own body is transfused and injected into your scalp, encouraging new growth.

Hair transplant - hair is taken from one part of your body and surgically installed into another spot needing hair. This is the most invasive and is a long process.

As always, it is best to consult with your primary care doctor for potential underlying causes before proceeding with any medical hair interventions. Please note this is a nonexhaustive list that can be modified and added to at any time.
