For many, a full head of hair is synonymous with youth and vitality. So, when we start to notice hair thinning or significant hair loss, it can be a deeply personal and often distressing experience. At Advanced Cosmetic Medicine in Adelaide, we understand the emotional impact of these changes and offer a range of advanced, non-surgical approaches to help you address your concerns and regain your confidence.
How it works
Understanding Hair Thinning and Hair Loss
Hair loss, medically known as alopecia, can manifest in various ways, from a general thinning across the scalp to more defined receding hairlines or bald patches. It's a complex issue influenced by a multitude of factors, including:
- Genetics: Often, a family history of hair loss plays a significant role.
- Hormonal Changes: Fluctuations in hormones due to conditions like pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, or thyroid problems can trigger hair loss.
- Stress: Prolonged or severe stress can push hair follicles into a resting phase, leading to shedding.
- Nutritional Deficiencies: Lack of essential vitamins and minerals can impact hair health.
- Medical Conditions: Certain autoimmune diseases or scalp infections can contribute to hair loss.
- Medications: Some medications can have hair loss as a side effect.
Identifying the root cause is a crucial first step in determining the most effective treatment path.
