MEDICATIONS for hair loss:

Some medications are given in seemingly increasing hair loss cases. This helps accentuate growth of the hair if possible and also provides nutritional supplements to the body. Although, just like all medications, side effects may occur when using them.

Propecia

Vitamin A

When it comes to hair, the best supplements to give it is simple hair vitamins. All cells need vitamin A for growth. This includes hair, the fastest growing tissue in the human body. An oily substance called Sebum, which moisturizes the scalp, comes from the skin glands, aided by vitamin A.  Sweet potatoes, carrots, pumpkins, spinach and kale are all high in beta-carotene, which is turned into vitamin A. It can also be found in animal products such as milk, eggs and yogurt. Cod liver oil is a particularly good source.

Perhaps reading more about the causes of hair loss, can give you a better sense of why this might be an essential treatment.

APPLIED MEDICATION for hair loss:

For those who prefer not consuming any medications, there is also an option to treating severe hair loss without it. However, these too can cause skin irritations and may have adverse side effects.

  • Vitamin D and E

Most of our vitamin D should be from the sun. Instead of putting on heavy hats and covering up, try to let your hair down to breath and for it to catch some vitamin D as well. For those of you who cover with a hijab, then your perfect vitamin D collection would be from opening your windows in the morning to let in as much light, and for you to sit for a while in the sun in your yard without shade.

We all know that vitamin E is essential, why else would we obsess over avocados? Vitamin E Helps prevent oxidative stress and boosts hair growth. In one study, people with hair loss experienced a 34.5% increase in hair growth after supplementing with vitamin E for 8 months.

There are many different brands of vitamin D and E creams and serums that you can use, as well as some in shampoos and organic hair treatments.

SURGICAL TREATMENT for hair loss

A few rigorous hair treatments come to mind when we think of overly thinned out hair or receding hair lines, or even baldness. Here are some of the most searched surgical treatments:

  • Stem cell/ PRP restoration

This involves the use of the patient’s own tissue to isolate and concentrate the growth factors. Later re-injecting those factors back into the affected area under local anesthesia and sedation. Stem cell treatment is considered the ultimatum procedure offering ultimate growth factors where a small amount of fat is collected from an area of your body. This ideally would take 3-6 months to see the full results.
