Hair loss

Hair loss can be temporary or chronic and may be related to hormonal or genetic factors, autoimmune conditions, nutritional deficiencies, stress, medications, or scalp disorders. That is why effective treatment starts with an accurate diagnosis rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.

Our dermatologists evaluate the type and pattern of hair loss, the condition of the scalp, how long the problem has been present, family history, hormonal and metabolic factors, previous treatments, and whether additional testing may be needed.

The goal is to identify the underlying cause and create a realistic treatment plan focused on stabilizing hair loss, promoting growth, and providing long-term follow-up.

Hair loss treatment at Dermique

Hair loss treatment is highly individualized and based on the diagnosis. There is no single treatment that works equally well for every type of hair loss. Regular follow-up allows us to adjust the treatment plan when needed and achieve optimal long-term results.

Depending on the underlying cause, your treatment plan may include:

  • topical treatments to stimulate hair growth
  • oral medication when appropriate
  • treatment of inflammatory scalp conditions
  • correction of nutritional deficiencies
  • therapies designed to improve the environment around the hair follicle
  • injectable or regenerative treatments for suitable patients
  • a maintenance plan and ongoing follow-up
Types of hair loss we treat

Diffuse hair loss

Telogen effluvium is a form of diffuse hair loss in which a large number of hairs prematurely enter the shedding phase of the hair growth cycle. It often develops after significant stress, surgery, infection, childbirth, rapid weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, or the use of certain medications.

Patients typically notice increased hair shedding while washing or brushing their hair or may find more hair than usual on their pillow.

Androgenetic alopecia

Androgenetic alopecia is the most common form of chronic hair loss in both men and women. In men, it typically presents as a receding hairline and thinning at the crown. In women, it more commonly causes gradual thinning through the central part of the scalp.

Early diagnosis is important because treatment is most effective while the hair follicles are still active. The goal is to slow progression, stabilize hair loss, and preserve as much hair density as possible.

Alopecia areata

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune form of hair loss that causes clearly defined patches of hair loss. It can affect the scalp, beard, eyebrows, or other hair-bearing areas of the body.

Treatment depends on the extent, duration, and activity of the condition. Our team evaluates the degree of hair loss and selects a treatment approach focused on controlling inflammation and promoting hair regrowth.

Types of hair loss we treat
Scalp conditions

Hair loss can sometimes be associated with scalp conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, folliculitis, inflammation, itching, excess oil, or flaking. In these cases, treatments aimed solely at stimulating hair growth are not enough. The first step is to bring the underlying scalp condition under control, as a healthy environment around the hair follicle is essential for consistent hair growth.

Frequently asked questions
How much hair loss per day is normal?
Losing approximately 50–100 hairs per day is generally considered normal. Hair loss may require evaluation when shedding becomes noticeably heavier, continues for an extended period, causes visible thinning, or results in areas of significant hair loss.
It depends on the cause. Some forms of hair loss are temporary and reversible. With others, such as androgenetic alopecia, the goal is to slow progression, stabilize hair loss, and preserve existing hair over the long term. Early diagnosis is key.
Hair grows slowly, so meaningful results take time. The first reliable assessment of progress is typically made after several months. Expecting significant results within two weeks is unrealistic.
Not always, but they can often be helpful. Laboratory testing may be recommended for diffuse hair loss, hair loss in women, postpartum hair loss, suspected nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or possible thyroid disorders.
Androgenetic alopecia is a chronic condition influenced by genetic and hormonal factors that causes progressive hair thinning in a characteristic pattern. Telogen effluvium typically causes more sudden, diffuse shedding and often develops after stress, illness, childbirth, surgery, or a nutritional deficiency.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune form of hair loss that causes round or oval patches of hair loss. It can affect the scalp, beard, eyebrows, or other hair-bearing areas. Treatment depends on the activity and extent of the condition.
Shampoos can help improve scalp health, but they rarely address true hair loss on their own. Conditions such as androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, or hair loss related to nutritional deficiencies require proper diagnosis and targeted treatment rather than simply switching shampoos.
Yes. Stress can trigger hair loss, particularly telogen effluvium. However, stress should not automatically be assumed to be the cause. If hair loss is significant, persistent, or causing visible thinning, it is important to evaluate whether another underlying factor may also be involved.

Atrophic scars

Atrophic scars are indented scars that most commonly appear following acne or other inflammatory conditions. They are caused by a loss of collagen and uneven skin regeneration.

At Dermique, we don’t treat acne scars using just one technique. Where necessary, we combine:
