Modern and Permanent Solutions Against Hair Loss

Hair loss can be a significant aesthetic and psychological concern for both men and women. At Este Effect Hair Transplant Center, we provide medical treatments and hair transplant solutions to prevent hair loss and protect the health of existing hair.

Slowing Hair Loss with Medical Treatment

In the early stages of hair loss, genetic hair thinning can be slowed down or prevented with FDA-approved medical treatments. Medications such as DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) Blockers and Minoxidil are particularly effective in strengthening hair follicles and reducing shedding.

DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) Blockers

DHT is one of the main causes of hair loss. It converts testosterone into a form that weakens the follicles. DHT blockers stop this process, preventing hair loss and strengthening follicles.

Effectiveness: A daily dose of 1 mg provides benefits for 90% of men over the age of 18, though 10% may continue to experience loss. It is especially effective on the crown area.

Side Effects: Only 2% of users may experience temporary side effects, which disappear once the medication is discontinued.

Use in Women: At higher doses (5 mg), it has been shown effective in treating post-menopausal female hair loss. However, it must never be used by women who are or may be pregnant.

Minoxidil

Minoxidil was the first FDA-approved treatment for hair loss. Applied topically to the scalp, it stimulates follicles, stops shedding, and thickens thinning hair.

Usage & Effectiveness: Applied twice daily. Effective results can be seen with 6–12 months of regular use. If discontinued, hair returns to its genetic shedding cycle.

Side Effects: Rare and may include mild body hair growth, redness, or dizziness.

Supportive Treatments

Spironolactone: With anti-androgenic properties, it helps stop hair loss in women and alleviates symptoms linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Ketoconazole Shampoos: Reduce seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff, preventing conditions that contribute to hair loss.

Nutritional Supplements: Biotin, zinc, iron, and herbal extracts such as saw palmetto support hair and nail health.

Permanent Solutions with Hair Transplant

When medical treatments are ineffective in advanced hair loss, hair transplant surgery offers the most permanent solution. Particularly for genetic hair loss, transplantation restores hair density naturally.

FUE Hair Transplant Technique

The FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method involves harvesting follicles from the donor area (nape) and implanting them into areas of need.

  • Hair is implanted at natural angles to ensure realistic results.
  • Sterile and advanced technology environments support healthy graft survival.
  • Leaves no visible scars and delivers natural outcomes.

Hair Loss in Women

Hair loss in women is usually linked to genetic predisposition, hormonal changes, or stress. In female pattern hair loss, Minoxidil is the primary recommended treatment. Accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan are crucial.
