Increased hair shedding, thinning, loss of density or visible bald patches can be signs of different forms of alopecia. The most common are androgenetic alopecia (hereditary and hormone-related), telogen effluvium (reactive shedding after stress, illness or hormonal changes), alopecia areata (autoimmune hair loss in patches), and diffuse shedding after childbirth, infections, surgery or rapid weight loss. A quick response and correct diagnosis significantly increase the success of therapy and prevent further thinning.
What do diagnosis and therapy at Menssana look like?
Our approach includes a detailed dermatological examination of the scalp, trichoscopy (a digitally magnified view of the hair and scalp) and laboratory tests when needed – hormonal status, iron parameters, vitamins and thyroid function. Based on the findings, the exact type of alopecia and the right treatment plan are determined. Therapy may include topical products to stimulate hair growth, scalp mesotherapy, PRP treatments (platelet-rich plasma) and, if needed, medication.
Why shouldn't you ignore hair loss?
Hair loss affects not only appearance and self-confidence but is often also a sign of internal hormonal or health imbalances. That is why it is important not to treat the problem on your own but to seek an expert assessment by a dermatologist.
At Menssana Hospital you receive comprehensive diagnostics, modern treatment protocols and expert support throughout the entire treatment – with the clear goal of restoring the density, health and quality of your hair.
