Hair Loss

Hair loss

Alopecia, the medical term for hair loss, happens in a large percentage of the UK population and does not discriminate based upon gender, age or nationality.  Our consultant dermatologist will work with you to determine what the cause is of your hair loss and the best form of treatment.

After a full medical history, some additional diagnostic aids may be employed, such as blood tests, skin biopsies, serial photographs and Trichoscopy where a piece of hair is examined under a microscope.  There is also the ability for Videodermoscopy although an addiitional appointment will need to be booked as it cannot be done at initial consultation.

The right treatment for you will depend upon your diagnosis and the root cause of the hair loss, and many other factors including your diet, profession and commitment to treatment. Hair loss treatments we are able to offer include: 

• Lotions
• Injections
• Oral medication
• Nutritional supplementation
