• Androgenetic Alopecia: This is the most common form of hair loss, often referred to as male or female pattern baldness. It occurs gradually and is influenced by genetics and hormones. We focus on treatments that can slow down this process and encourage new hair growth.
• Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to patchy hair loss. We offer specialized treatments aimed at reducing inflammation and stimulating hair growth to help you regain your hair in the affected areas.
• Telogen Effluvium: A temporary condition where stress, illness, or hormonal changes push hair into the shedding phase prematurely. Our approach is to identify the underlying cause and provide treatments that promote quicker recovery and support hair growth as your body returns to balance.
• Traction Alopecia: Caused by tight hairstyles or constant pulling on the hair, this type of hair loss is often preventable and treatable. We focus on gentle care routines and treatments to restore hair growth and protect your hair from further damage.

• Laboratory Tests

Laboratory tests are an essential part of diagnosing hair loss because they help identify underlying health issues that could be contributing to your condition. Blood tests can reveal hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, thyroid dysfunction, or autoimmune diseases, all of which may impact hair health.

• Scalp Biopsies

Scalp biopsies involve taking a small sample of scalp tissue to examine under a microscope, providing valuable insights into the cause of hair loss. During the procedure, a small, circular section of the scalp is numbed, and a tiny piece of tissue is removed. This sample is then analyzed to identify conditions like alopecia areata, scarring alopecia, or other dermatological issues affecting the hair follicles.

The duration of results from our hair loss treatments can vary depending on the treatment used and how well you maintain your hair health afterward. Some treatments like topical medications may require ongoing use to sustain results, while others can offer longer-lasting effects. Dr. Ip will guide you on maintaining your results and discuss any follow-up care needed to keep your hair looking its best after a balding treatment or treatment for thinning hair.

Preventing further hair loss involves adopting gentle hair care practices and nourishing your body from within. Avoid harsh brushing, tight hairstyles, and excessive heat styling to reduce breakage, and opt for a wide-tooth comb and air drying when possible.

A balanced diet rich in vitamins like biotin, zinc, and iron, along with a daily supplement, supports healthy hair growth. Managing stress can also help prevent hair loss. Use hair care products designed to strengthen hair and improve scalp health, along with regular scalp massages to boost circulation and promote stronger, healthier hair.
