5 Key Questions About Hair Loss Are Answered By Our Trichologist.

18.11.2023 in COMBAT HAIR LOSS

Can I regrow lost hair?

Effective treatments for some types of hair loss are available. You might be able to reverse hair loss, or at least slow it. With some conditions, such as patchy hair loss (alopecia areata), hair may regrow without treatment within a year. Treatments for hair loss include medications and surgery.

Can hair grow back after balding naturally?

Not really. Here’s the thing: complete hair loss from male pattern balding is often permanent hair loss, given enough time. Men may see limited hair regrowth from using medications to treat their balding, but generally speaking, once a hair follicle has been made dormant and unproductive for long enough, it’s dead.

What is a trichologist specialist?

A trichologist is a specialist who focuses on trichology — the study of diseases or problems related to the hair and scalp, as well as their treatments.

Trichology takes its name from the Greek word Trikhos, which means hair. Though trichologists are not doctors, they can advise people who are having hair-related problems, such as hair loss or scalp conditions.

Why would you go to a trichologist?

A trichologist is someone who specialises in hair and scalp health. They are experts in trichology, which is the science and structure of all hair types, as well as hair and scalp conditions. Trichologists can help clients with everything from female and male pattern hair loss to symptoms of alopecia areata.

Is it worth going to a trichologist?

Let us assure you, that in matters of your hair and scalp, there is no one who knows your hair better than your trichologist. There is just no second thought on this. So, do not hesitate or question the need for a visit. If you care for your hair, well then, about time you start showing it the care it deserves.

COMBAT HAIR LOSS: How To Grow Your Hair Back (Part 11)

03.12.2012 in COMBAT HAIR LOSS

THE CHECK LIST

(1) Hormone System

 Make sure that your hormone levels and the whole endocrine system is correct and functioning normally.  Any hormone irregularities should be checked immediately.   Women will experience several major hormone changes and correct functioning should be ensured.  Seek advice from an endocrinologist.

(2) Anaemia

 Check body iron levels carefully together with ferritin levels.  Even small falls in level lower the red blood count and will adversely affect hair growth.  This is a very common condition and women are particularly susceptible.  A blood test will easily enable you to check this.

(3) Thyroid Gland

 A simple blood test will also check the thyroxin (an Iodine compound) levels in the blood.  Over activity or under activity of the thyroid gland, which produces thyroxin, have a marked adverse effect on hair growth.  The condition is easily controlled by medication.

(4) Systemic Illnesses

 Almost all systemic illnesses adversely affect hair and skin growth, in fact many serious illnesses first appear in dermatological guise .  The autoimmune system is triggered and hair growth is affected.  Make sure you have a full, regular health check.

(5) Health

 You must not only be free of any systemic illnesses.  You must be in really good health, completely fit and well to obtain optimum hair growth.  Have the mineral (elements) levels of the body checked; a simple hair analysis will give you this information.  Diet is the key.  Traces of almost all mineral (elements) are required for correct body functioning, but hair growth will be seriously affected by shortages of calcium, iron and iodine.

(6) Diet

 It is really important to eat well, a good omnivore diet in the correct quantities.  Fresh fruit and fresh vegetables are essential.  Vitamin A, B group vitamins, vitamin C and vitamin H are vital for hair growth.  People whose diet may not be balanced (vegetarians for instance) must have the appropriate supplementation.  If you are not sure consult a qualified nutritionalist.  Extreme slimming regimes will not give the best hair growth.

(7) Toxins

 Try to ensure that toxins are not present in the blood or body tissue, smoking, excess alcohol and other agents will all have an adverse effect.

(8) Alopecia Areata

 Patchy loss of hair and baldness caused by partial failure of the autoimmune system.  Seek expert help from a dermatologist or trichologist.  The condition  almost invariably reverses but help will be required.  Work to remove the causes if they can be identified; stress is very often involved.

(9) Stress

 Control of stress (elimination is doubtful) and stress management is required.  Yoga, deep breathing, counselling – there are techniques available.  High stress levels will adversely affect hair growth as they will increase the hormone levels, particularly adrenalin.

(10) Medical Conditions of the Hair and Scalp

 These can usually be treated or controlled and help from a qualified dermatologist or trichologist should be sought.  A GP is usually overworked, often with life threatening cases and may not be the best person to consult.  These distressing scalp conditions (psoriasis, eczema, etc.) will require treatment before the best hair growth can be achieved.

(11) Damage to the Hair Shaft and Breakage

 Seek expert help as No. (10).  Most conditions will correct themselves once the cause of the damage has been removed.  Check to ensure that permanent scarring and loss of the hair follicles has not occurred.

(12) Exercise

 You must quite simply be fit and well and this has to include some form of regular exercise to increase the heart rate, stimulate the blood flow and top-up the autoimmune system. A healthy life-style will give you optimum hair growth.

(13) The Growth Agents

 Try them; many of them work quite well, sometimes when used in combination.  Find one that suits you but make sure you retain a realistic expectation.  None of these products produce dramatic results; you should aim to stabilise the position and obtain a little re-growth.  It is quite simply not possible in cases of Androgenic Alopecia to re-grow a full head of hair.  Set yourself a realistic budget for this help.  Remember you are only “buying time”.

(14) Check the Cause

 Make sure that the cause of hair loss or poor growth is correctly diagnosed.  The remedy could be quite simple but you must get the diagnosis right.  Consult an expert, a dermatologist or a trichologist.

COMBAT HAIR LOSS: How To Grow Your Hair Back (Part 10)

02.12.2012 in COMBAT HAIR LOSS

CONCLUSION

A fine head of hair is a joy to behold and probably one of our most important social and secondary sexual characteristics.  Everybody wants to have a good head of hair and the upset and trauma when problems arise with the hair and hair growth are simply enormous.  Loss of hair or hair condition is viewed by most people as far more serious than even the worst imaginable systemic illness because it is clearly visible, and part of our persona, our style, the way we want people to see us has been changed or permanently lost.

This book sets out the deciding factors; it contains all you need to know to improve your hair growth and to improve your hair condition.  It is a do-it-yourself guide for good hair growth.  Detailed explanations and pictures of some of the many dreadful hair and scalp ailments have been avoided.  These require specialist treatment from a Dermatologist or Trichologist.

Here we try to “accentuate the positive” to show that it is possible for people with average or poor hair growth or condition to improve their position to get to the optimum hair growth.  Everything you ever wanted to know about your hair, and were afraid to ask is set out here.  This book will ensure that you always have a good hair day.
