Hair loss in women: the best remedies and effective treatments

Hair transplantation is a technique that aims to remove hair and relocate it to a more open area. Hair transplants are successful in women who have lost their hair. Previously, surgeons transplanted whole strips of the scalp but transplanting individual hair follicles from the back of the scalp yields better results. Because the back of the head is more resistant to hair loss, there is usually more hair. “It is tedious and expensive, but this approach represents the possibility of good results in women,”

Minoxidil is a vasodilator drug that lowers blood pressure and can also slow hair loss and even promote regrowth, says Nick Dimakos. Dr. Robert Jones, who has recommended this treatment to several of his patients, maintains that it is effective in most cases.
Hair loss can be treated with Minoxidil. Y PHOTO STUDIO/SHUTTERSTOCKThere are topical or oral herbal remedies for both men and women. They contain natural extracts of fenugreek or saw palmetto seeds, but there is no certainty about their effectiveness. The first treatment option is Minoxidil. It is a liquid to be applied to the scalp which slows the loss, even accelerates the regrowth of part of the hair, and which is sometimes effective in alopecia areata.

Several drugs with hormonal effects (birth control pill) help prevent female alopecia, since this hair loss is linked to testosterone, or oral contraceptives block testosterone. But these oral medications have an increased risk of side effects compared to topical treatments. Discuss this with your doctor.  In the case of chronic telogen effluvium, the alopecia is usually short-term, sometimes accompanied by exacerbations, says Dr. Durosier. "There may be temporary improvement with a short course of topical steroids," he says. Topical steroids may be advised for hair loss such as alopecia areata and other cases of autoimmune origin, but these treatments will not work for alopecia of genetic origin.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment presents a different approach. It stimulates regrowth rather than fighting alopecia. "we use the patient's own blood and her growth factors to stimulate hair growth", to stimulate regrowth. mentions Dr. Donovan. The blood is collected and centrifuged to isolate the plasma which is reinjected into the scalp to stimulate regrowth.

Apply this serum every evening to rebalance the hair cycle. This will wake up the resting follicles so that more hair is in its growth stage.

Night hair care

 Try the Overnight Hair Mask which will provide the scalp with comparable care. Its antioxidant formula reduces the damage caused to the hair by free radicals. In addition, it creates an environment conducive to hair growth.

Anti-hair loss regenerating serum

Use a regenerative treatment that works thanks to the adenosine triphosphate molecule. This molecule is known to triple the life cycle of hair. It improves the rooting of hair and the survival of hair bulbs: it, therefore, reduces the risk of hair loss.

Female Hair Loss: When Should You Be Worried?

The Canadian Dermatology Association (CDA) estimates that we lose about 100 of our 100,000 hairs every day while specifying that this is a completely normal activity and that most grow back. This is because our follicles go through continuous cycles of growing, resting, and shedding.

What can become worrying is the appearance of bald patches or the widening of your parting. “women more than 45% of postmenopausal women suffer from alopecia,” explains Dr. Vincent Durosier, medical director of Ducray Dermatological Laboratories in Toulouse, France. Our hair grows about 3 cm per month. But Dr. Durosier points out that this is not a continuous process, which means that the 100,000 hair follicles that we have spoken of do not grow at the same rate. Thus, every hair on our head will stay there for three to six years before falling out.
