Losing Hair?

A wide variety of factors play a role in why we start to lose our hair, including:

• Ageing
• Medical conditions
• Hormone imbalance
• Genetic disorder
• Malnutrition or weight loss
• Chemotherapy

Types of Hair Loss
Hair loss is either temporary or permanent. Permanent loss is usually referred to as male or female pattern baldness. Treatments are different to those for temporary and can involve options like plugging (hair transplant).

Temporary hair loss is usually one of the numerous forms of alopecia, the most common being:

• Androgenetic alopecia
• Telogen alopecia

Alopecia areata
Each form of alopecia can be treated most effectively in a medical dermatology clinic in London with the goal of slowing the hair loss, while also providing cosmetic solutions that can help give our patient’s back more self-assurance in their daily lives.

Treating Hair Loss
At Eudelo, the first step is for our medical aestheticians to identify the form of alopecia and ensure the correct treatment can be recommended and a treatment path created.

Treating androgenetic alopecia
We use prescription-strength topical preparations specially formulated with highly effective active ingredients by our dermatologists.

Treating telogen alopecia
Telogen effluvium is a temporary condition caused by a shock to the system that interrupts the natural growth (anagen) phase and the resting phase (telogen). The norm for healthy hair follicles is a balance of 85% anagen and 15% telogen. With telogen effluvium, the balance shifts in favour of the resting phase by up to 70% with more hair falling out. The issue should spontaneously rebalance after a few months but our special scalp tincture may prove effective in stimulating growth.

Treating alopecia areata
Arising spontaneously or in reaction to a stressful event, alopecia areata is patchy hair loss experience by adults and children. Like telogen effluvium, it is an interruption in the follicle growth cycle and similarly, will reset in time. Eudelo's systemic or topical treatments can help slow the process of hair loss with this aggressive form of alopecia. If you are concerned about alopecia, schedule a discovery call with our team and get seen by one of our medical dermatologists and access Eudelo’s experienced team of skincare professionals.
