Our hair care and diet can have a significant impact on the body’s ability to grow and sustain healthy, beautiful hair. With a few adjustments, many people can minimize their risk for hair loss.
Our top tips for improving your daily routine to benefit hair health are:
· Develop a gentle hair care plan – Find a good shampoo and conditioner that are hydrating and don’t contain a lot of harsh ingredients. This will help to keep your scalp healthy.
· You should also address dandruff and other scalp health issues right away. When styling your hair, take care to choose options that don’t pull at the hair follicle.
· Adjust your diet – Add extra protein to your daily meals. Low protein is one of the main dietary causes of hair loss or thinning. Additionally, foods common in a Mediterranean diet (greens, basil, parsley) have been shown to reduce the risk for male and female-pattern baldness.
· Take vitamins – Research indicates that vitamins A, B, C, and D, as well as zinc, iron, and selenium are beneficial in promoting hair growth. A good multivitamin should contain these ingredients and support your hair growth goals.
Treatments to Stop Hair Loss
In addition to the lifestyle changes, you can also consider a number of treatments to halt the progress of hair loss. There are numerous hair restoration treatments that may improve the appearance, thickness, and health of hair and stop further hair loss.
PRP or PRF – Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) or Platelet Rich Fibrin therapy is a common treatment used to slow hair loss. It involves removing plasma from your own blood cells, then injecting the plasma into the scalp. This injection stimulates healing, encourages damaged hair follicles to convert to the growing phase, and promotes general scalp health. In most cases,we recommend monthly treatments for several months, followed by regular retreatment every 6 to 12 months.
Microneedling – Microneedling on its own has been proven to stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss, but it’s even more beneficial when combined with topical minoxidil.
Ozone treatments for overall health benefits that not only treat the hair loss but oxygenate the blood to ensure that the plasma is full of oxygen.
SMP Scalp tattooing is another way of "hair restoration" where tiny micro dots are tattooed directly onto the scalp giving the illusion of a full head of hair.
