Hair loss can be a deeply personal and often distressing experience that can affect our confidence levels and emotional wellbeing. If you’re experiencing hair thinning, male pattern hair loss, or the unique challenges of hair loss in women, there are tried and tested treatments available that can help you restore your hair to its former glory.
At The Grove Skin & Laser Clinic we offer a range of innovative treatments designed to restore not only your hair, but also your sense of self.
What causes hair loss?
Hair loss can occur for many reasons, from hormonal imbalances and genetics, to stress or underlying medical conditions. No matter the cause, effective treatment requires addressing the root cause of the issue.
It is important to try and narrow down what could be causing your hair to thin, this way we can identify if it is something that can be fixed, for example, by managing stress levels; or if it’s something outside of your control, such as losing hair due to the ageing process.
At The Grove Skin & Laser Clinic in Swansea we work with our patients who are suffering with hair loss not only to provide the relevant treatment, but also to help them to identify the cause of the problem.
What hair loss treatments are available?
We provide a number of different options for patients suffering with hair thinning. We work with patients to identify which treatment will work best for them, while taking into account their unique concerns, lifestyle and budget.
Here are some of the options we provide along with their benefits and considerations.
Calecim Hair Loss Treatment
Calecim Professional Serum is a revolutionary product derived from stem cell technology. Applied directly to the scalp, it promotes the regeneration of hair follicles, helping to improve hair density and thickness. This treatment works by harnessing growth factors and proteins to stimulate dormant hair follicles and encourage healthier growth cycles.
The pros of Calecim include its ability to rejuvenate the scalp and improve the quality of existing hair. The treatment is pain free and non-invasive, making it suitable for most patients. However, results can take several months to become noticeable, and consistent sessions may be required for optimal outcomes.
PRP for hair thinning
PRP, also known as platelet rich plasma treatment, is another highly effective option for combating hair loss. This treatment involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and injecting the PRP solution into the scalp. Platelets are rich in growth factors that stimulate hair follicles, improve blood supply, and support healthy hair growth.
PRP is particularly effective for patients with early stage hair thinning and can be used in combination with other treatments. One of its key benefits is that it’s entirely natural, using your body’s own platelets to encourage hair growth.
Some patients experience mild discomfort during the procedure, but the pros are that there is no need for any down time after the treatment. The main point to consider is that several sessions are typically required to achieve and maintain results.
Polynucleotide treatment for hair loss
You may already be aware of how polynucleotides are being used to improve skin quality, but did you know that this innovative treatment can also be used in the fight against hair loss as well?
Polynucleotide treatment works by repairing and rejuvenating the scalp at a cellular level and this promotes better scalp health by improving blood flow to the hair follicles, and this creates an environment that supports thicker, healthier hair growth.
This treatment is particularly effective for individuals with damaged or thinning hair, as it strengthens the scalp’s foundation. The main advantage is its dual action on both the scalp and hair follicles, offering comprehensive benefits. However, as with PRP, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve long term improvement.
Which hair loss treatment is the best?
Choosing the best hair loss treatment depends on the cause of your hair loss and your individual goals. Calecim and polynucleotides are excellent for improving scalp health and hair quality, while PRP is ideal for stimulating regrowth in thinning areas.
In some cases, combining treatments can deliver even more dramatic results!
