What Is Hair Loss?
Hair plays a major role in personal appearance and confidence, which is why losing it can be emotionally challenging for both men and women. While it may seem like a small detail, hair often leaves a lasting first impression. When thinning or shedding begins, it can impact not only appearance but self-esteem. Fortunately, today's advances in hair loss treatment offer real solutions to help slow, stop, or even reverse the process. At Westover Hills Dermatology in San Antonio, TX, our team works with patients to address hair loss causes and develop customized plans using proven technologies and therapies. Whether you are noticing early signs of hair loss or are dealing with advanced thinning, we are here to help.
How Is Hair Loss Treated?
Thanks to medical and scientific advancements, individuals experiencing hair loss have more options than ever before. At Westover Hills Dermatology, we provide nonsurgical hair treatment for hair loss that includes therapeutic scalp products, physician-prescribed medications for hair regrowth, nutritional support, and lifestyle recommendations. In addition, we offer low-level laser therapy and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections enhanced with placenta-derived extracellular matrix therapy to help stimulate follicle regeneration. For those requiring a surgical solution, we also offer modern transplant procedures, such as follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular unit transplantation (FUT), which are considered the most advanced and least invasive methods available. While hair loss treatment for women may differ from that for men due to varying underlying causes, our team often recommends a multi-therapy approach to preserve existing hair, improve follicle strength, and restore growth where possible.
What Are the Types of Hair Loss Conditions?
Hair loss can result from a variety of medical, genetic, or behavioral causes. Some conditions are reversible with noninvasive treatments while others may require surgical correction. The most common hair loss conditions include:
- Female and male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia)
- Alopecia areata
- Telogen effluvium
- Anagen effluvium
- Trichotillomania
- Traction alopecia
Understanding the specific type of hair loss is essential for selecting the right course of action.
