For early-stage hair thinning or patchy loss, topical or prescription treatments may be recommended as a first step or alongside other therapies:
Minoxidil (Topical)
A proven solution to stimulate hair growth and slow down loss. Often used for male and female pattern baldness.
Prescription-Only Solutions
Medications like Finasteride (for men) help address hormonal causes of hair loss by reducing DHT levels.
Dermatology-Led Diagnosis
Accurate scalp and root analysis helps identify whether your hair loss is due to inflammation, hormonal imbalance, stress, or autoimmune conditions like alopecia areata.
These treatments are tailored to your pattern, cause, and stage of hair loss — not one-size-fits-all.
When visible thinning or patches progress, our in-clinic solutions offer effective, minimally invasive intervention:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)
Uses your own blood plasma, rich in growth factors, to stimulate dormant hair follicles and encourage regrowth. Ideal for early to moderate hair thinning.
Microneedling + Growth Serums
Boosts circulation and creates micro-channels for deeper absorption of regenerative serums, supporting follicle repair.
Targeted Scalp Injections
Corticosteroid injections may be used for alopecia areata or inflammatory scalp conditions, reducing immune attack on hair follicles.
These procedures are designed to strengthen existing follicles, reawaken dormant ones, and slow further loss.
Hair loss is often linked to underlying health or lifestyle factors. We investigate these through:
Blood Tests & Hormonal Screening
Identifies imbalances in iron, thyroid, or hormones that may be contributing to your hair loss.
Stress-Linked Hair Loss Care
For cases triggered by trauma, childbirth, illness, or stress (e.g. telogen effluvium), we support recovery with both treatment and time-sensitive reassurance.
Dermatology-Coordinated Referrals
When needed, we coordinate with GPs or endocrinologists for comprehensive care.
Each treatment plan is built around your specific hair loss pattern, medical history, and long-term goals — whether it’s stopping the loss, regrowing hair, or boosting scalp health.
