Introducing Nutrafol – The Newest Option for Thicker, Healthier Hair

Hair loss is one of the most common concerns we see at Midwest Dermatology—and we know it’s more than cosmetic. It affects confidence, self-image, and everyday life. That’s why we’re excited to introduce a new option to support patients dealing with thinning hair: Nutrafol.
Why Nutrafol?
Thinning hair rarely has just one cause. Stress, hormones, inflammation, and even nutrient deficiencies can all play a role in how strong—or how fragile—your hair grows. Nutrafol takes a “whole-body” approach by addressing these underlying factors with a carefully chosen blend of ingredients:
- Supports healthy hormones – Saw palmetto helps reduce the effects of DHT, the hormone linked to follicle shrinkage and thinning.
- Manages stress – Adaptogens like ashwagandha help balance cortisol, the stress hormone often tied to excess shedding.
- Calms inflammation – Turmeric (curcumin) and other antioxidants soothe irritated follicles and protect against damage.
- Nourishes growth – Marine collagen peptides, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids provide the building blocks for strong, resilient strands.
- Backed by science – Clinical studies have shown Nutrafol users experience improvements in thickness, coverage, and hair quality within three to six months.
At Midwest Dermatology, we often remind patients that hair health is an inside-out process. Nutrafol isn’t a quick fix, but it’s one of the most advanced, drug-free options available to support fuller, healthier hair over time.
Our doctors recommend Nutrafol as a way to complement in-office hair loss treatments you may already be receiving at Midwest Dermatology—or as a proactive first step in your fight against hair loss. Nutrafol is now available in all our offices and online, making it easy to start your regimen right away. And when you purchase directly through us, you’ll save a little compared to ordering from Nutrafol’s website—another simple way to support your hair health while keeping a few extra dollars in your pocket.
Nutrafol and Viviscal: Two Strong Choices
Nutrafol vs. Viviscal Pro: Which Supplement is Right for You?
When it comes to hair supplements, two names stand out: Nutrafol and Viviscal Pro. Both are backed by research, both have loyal followings, but they take very different paths to stronger, fuller hair.
Viviscal Pro has been around for decades and focuses on feeding your follicles directly. Its star ingredient is a marine protein complex called AminoMar™, combined with biotin, vitamin C, iron, and plant extracts. The result? A nutrient-dense formula that supports hair from the inside out. Many patients notice their hair feels stronger and looks fuller within a few months—and, for some, Viviscal is a great choice.
Nutrafol, on the other hand, takes a more holistic approach. Instead of focusing only on nutrition, it tackles the root causes of thinning—stress, hormones, inflammation, and nutrient gaps. With ingredients like saw palmetto (to block DHT), ashwagandha (to balance stress hormones), and turmeric (to calm inflammation), Nutrafol is designed for people whose hair loss may be tied to systemic factors.
Ready to Take Action?
At Midwest Dermatology, we often remind patients there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Both Viviscal Pro and Nutrafol can play an important role in restoring confidence and supporting healthy hair—what matters is finding the right fit for your needs.
Nutrafol supplements – and Nutrafol award-winning shampoo and lightweight, moisturizing conditioner – can be purchased at any Midwest Dermatology location and are all coming soon to our online shop! Or call to purchase at (402) 933-0800.
We are proud to bring you another option for treating hair loss—because healthier hair starts here.
