Who qualifies for hair loss treatment
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case for suitability. They look for specific criteria to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for you. This includes understanding the type and cause of your hair loss, your medical history, and any existing conditions or medications. Common treatments like Finasteride and Minoxidil have specific indications and contraindications, which the doctor will consider during your online consultation. The goal is to provide a personalized and safe treatment plan.
What hair loss treatment actually does (and doesn't do)
Hair loss treatments like Finasteride and Minoxidil work through different mechanisms. Finasteride, an oral medication, primarily tackles male pattern baldness by blocking the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that shrinks hair follicles. Minoxidil, a topical solution, works by widening blood vessels and opening potassium channels, which helps deliver more oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles, stimulating growth. Both require consistent use, and results are not immediate. You can expect to see initial improvements after 3-6 months, with full effects potentially taking 12 months or more. Treatments aim to slow down hair loss and stimulate new growth, but they do not guarantee a full restoration of hair density or stop future hair loss entirely if underlying conditions persist.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, hair loss treatments can have side effects. Minoxidil can cause scalp irritation, itching, or unwanted hair growth on other parts of the body if not applied carefully. Finasteride may lead to side effects such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, or ejaculation disorders, though these are rare. It's crucial to be aware of these potential issues. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, or if your hair loss worsens, you should stop the medication and consult with your doctor immediately. Our EU-licensed doctors will discuss potential side effects with you during your online consultation and monitor your progress.
