Who qualifies for hair loss treatment
Our EU-licensed doctors carefully evaluate each case to ensure hair loss treatment is safe and effective for you. They will look for key indicators of common hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness) and assess your overall health. Contraindications may include certain medical conditions, allergies to active ingredients (like finasteride or minoxidil), or specific medications you are currently taking. The doctor will determine if treatment is appropriate based on your medical history and the information provided in your questionnaire.
What hair loss treatment actually does (and doesn't do)
Common hair loss treatments like finasteride and minoxidil work in different ways. Finasteride (for men) inhibits the hormone DHT, which is a major contributor to male pattern baldness. This helps to slow down hair loss and can encourage regrowth of finer hairs. Minoxidil, available for both men and women, works by increasing blood flow to hair follicles, stimulating them to grow and prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle. Neither treatment offers immediate results; visible improvements typically take 3-6 months, with maximum benefits seen after 12 months of consistent use. These treatments are most effective for slowing progression and stimulating regrowth in areas where follicles are still active, but they cannot restore hair in completely bald areas.

Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, hair loss treatments can have side effects. Finasteride may cause sexual side effects in a small percentage of men, such as decreased libido or erectile dysfunction, which usually resolve upon stopping the medication. Minoxidil can cause scalp irritation, itching, or unwanted facial hair growth. It's crucial to be aware of these potential effects and discuss them with your doctor. If you experience severe side effects, allergic reactions, or any concerning symptoms, stop the treatment immediately and consult your doctor. Medical honesty is key to safe and effective treatment.
