Hair Loss

Hair Loss Solutions

Once Midwest Dermatology physicians have determined the cause of your thinning, they put together a recommended plan to help you achieve your best outcome including:

• Hair Restoration Using Your Body’s Own Plasma – not a drug but your body’s own blood, filled with growth factors, the latest advance in medicine used to treat a range of health issues. Simply put, these microinjections promote hair growth by prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle. Patients are flocking for this all natural treatment because it is non-surgical, has no down time and best of all looks completely natural.
• Prescription drugs including Finasteride for men. Taken in pill form, Finasteride slows hair loss and, for many men, stimulates growth of new hair.
• Corticosteroids, often used to treat alopecia areata, an auto-immune disease that attacks hair follicles and causes patchy to total hair loss. Physicians use corticosteroids to help decrease inflammation and may choose to treat with pills, ointments or foams that are applied to the skin’s surface or by tiny injections directly into the scalp. While results vary, hair may gradually regrow once the inflammation is controlled.
• Topical medications such as Rogaine, the clinically effective, safe to use topical medication that is scientifically proven to increase your hair count. Affordable and easily applied by massaging into your scalp, Rogaine is a popular over the counter treatment.
• Viviscal Professional drug free dietary supplement available exclusively in physician offices, clinics and salons. Studies show Viviscal Professional, taken twice daily, prevents hair from shedding and results in hair that looks and feels fuller and thicker.
