No one wants to shed their hair but it is especially heart breaking for women. Men can have bald heads and still look great while women has this stigma associated with baldness and hence don’t ever want to go bald. While baldness is common in men, it is not so common in women but women do experience extreme hair thinning. The right thing to do is get hold of a doctor in a reputed hair clinic Dubai. Follow the steps mentioned below to treat hair fall in the right way.
If you are experiencing extreme thinning, it is advisable to visit a hair specialist or trichologist from a reputed hair clinic Dubai. Despite the underlying cause, the earlier the problem is addressed, better the results are. A hair specialist will usually determine medical history, perform blood tests and may do a biopsy. A scalp biopsy is critical to detect underlying problems behind hair loss. A biopsy will examine the hair follicles and will determine the type of hair loss. The hair specialist will be able to detect if hair loss is genetic, infectious, inflammatory or due to stress.
If your blood tests show low iron levels, the doctor will ensure to put you on an iron supplement. If it’s due to menopause, a doctor will most likely device a hormone replacement therapy. Low estrogen levels are also responsible for hair fall. A well equipped hair clinic Dubai will pin point the underlying cause and ill treat the hair fall accordingly.
If no trigger is detected by the doctor, you might probably be suffering from androgenetic alopecia. It is a hereditary condition which causes hair to thin gradually and eventually leads to baldness. Most effective solution in this regard is minoxidil. Minoxidil is often prescribed by doctors but it requires patience to see visible results from minoxidil but it is proven to stimulate hair growth.
Laser combs are another non surgical solution to hair loss and can be used at home. However, most specialists don’t recommend laser comb treatment. Light can help in thickening of hair follicles but there are no specific studies that show improvement in hair growth.
If treatments are not working, then one might consider hair transplantation. For hair transplant, you want to make sure that you are choosing the right specialist and a reputed hair clinic Dubai which is equipped with stat of art technology.
Gazillion over the counter products are available for curing hair loss. Amongst over the counter products, only minoxidil seems to work. Shampoos, conditioners and hair masks can make your hair look and feel amazing but they won’t promote hair growth. Vitamins and minerals can certainly improve the health of your hair but cannot cure extreme hair thinning. Fads and gimmicks if not worsen the condition of your hair; will definitely waste your time and money. So, beware of them and invest your energy and money in a good hair specialist.
