My hair looks too thin. Should I consider hair restoration?

Hair thinning and hair loss are common and affect many people. Though there are many causes of hair loss, the sooner you seek hair restoration help, the more success you may have with treatment.

In order to provide the most effective treatment, the team at Stone Creek Family Medicine needs to understand the root cause of your hair loss. Common causes of hair loss include:

• Hereditary
• Age
• Autoimmune disorders
• Medical treatment
• Hair products
• Poor nutrition
• Stress
• Hormones

The team conducts a thorough evaluation when you come in for a hair restoration consultation. 

The family medicine team practices precision medicine and uses your medical and family history to better understand the cause of your hair thinning to provide more effective care.

What are some of the available hair restoration treatments?

Stone Creek Family Medicine takes an integrative approach to care, using a combination of traditional medical interventions and complementary therapies for hair restoration. 

Some of the hair restoration treatments include:

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

PRP is a form of precision medicine that uses the platelets from your own blood to reactivate dormant hair follicles to improve hair growth. PRP contains a high concentration of platelets, which are the cells in your blood that stimulate the repair process. 

For hair restoration, your provider injects PRP into the areas of your scalp where the hair is thinning. They recommend monthly injections for the first three months and then follow-up injections every 3-6 months. 

Over-the-counter (OTC) topical agents

The team at Stone Creek Family Medicine may recommend adding OTC topical hair loss treatments such as minoxidil. These OTC topical agents work best when combined with other therapies like PRP.

Prescription medications

Depending on the cause of your hair loss, the medical professionals at Stone Creek Family Medicine may suggest prescription medications to help with hair restoration. These types of medications are usually prescribed for hereditary hair loss.

When can I expect to see results from hair restoration?

Results from hair restoration depend on the cause of your hair loss and the treatments you need, but it may take up to four months for you to see progress.
