Hair treatments in Lucknow

Hair loss is a common phenomenon to both males and females, and it is not always hard to tell when it occurs – the signs are there for all to see. While some hair loss incidences happen naturally as a result of ageing, others may be induced by specific conditions or disorders that need to be expressly addressed. Again, the reality is that it is not everyone with some patches around the scalp or even the minutest of hair that is pleased with his/her outlook – hair loss is seen as a taint on aesthetic. It is to this end people may visit the best cosmetic surgeon in Lucknow to see if there can be a way to remedy the situation. So, if you are looking for a place to have a hair loss treatment in Lucknow, you should consider visiting The Esthetic Clinics with Dr. Debraj Shome and Dr. Rinky Kapoor, two of India’s best brains in different fields – the former being a cosmetic surgeon and the latter, a cosmetic dermatologist – waiting to carefully study your case and present you with the best hair loss treatment in Lucknow. 

Why Does My Hair Fall?

There are various factors that could be responsible for the loss of your hair. For one, hair loss may arise with increasing age – the most prevalent reason. It could be that you have been going through a lot of stress recently, and this might have caused heightened anxiety that eventually leads to hair loss. So, you may need to review your stress management goals. Again, changes in hormonal levels/concentrations are another factor that can bring about the loss of hair; this is quite obvious in pregnant women, or those breastfeeding babies, as well as the ones at the menopausal phase of life. Stress and eating disorders are another set of factors that can lead to hormonal imbalances – and this does not exempt males. 

It is yet possible that the condition that is driving you to seek hair loss treatment in Lucknow is caused by certain medications you have been placed under. Drugs like warfarin, valproic, allopurinol, nadolol, voriconazole, and so on have been implicated in cases of hair loss. In light of this, it is vital that you come with the medications you are currently using when visiting the hair doctor on your first appointment. That said, you should also be mindful of the fact that a high dose of Vitamin A and even the lack of protein and essential minerals like iron and zinc may also be the reason for your hair loss.

Medical conditions such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, psoriasis, poor diet/chronic malnutrition, and some types of cancer can also cause you to lose your hair a great deal. It has also been found that the development and/or health of the hair follicles can be compromised by renal failure, inflammatory bowel disorders, and liver diseases, and this eventually leads to significant loss of hair. Patients undergoing chemotherapy will, also most likely, have their hair growth mechanism greatly disturbed thus the reason for hair loss. Whatever the cause of your hair loss may be, the best hair treatment clinic in Lucknow should have the right medical equipment to effectively diagnose the problem and provide you with the most suitable restorative routine.   

Are all hair losses similar?

Well, hair loss may generally be reflected as a patch on the scalp, but it is widely understood within the medical field that hair loss varied in different ways, and this is what informs the need for a classification scheme. In essence, your hair loss treatment in Lucknow can be directed addressing any of the following types of hair loss:

• Androgenetic alopecia: This type of hair loss is associated with family history so it can be passed down through different generations. It occurs mostly in men, among whom the effect is even more prominent. That said, there are both male-pattern hair loss and female-pattern hair loss as far as androgenetic alopecia is concerned. In men, androgenetic alopecia is reflected by the thinning of hair at the core center of the scalp, as well as around the front and crown aspects [of the scalp]. Likewise, the male-pattern androgenetic alopecia can also show as total hair loss, with only a residual left at the lower back aspect of the scalp. For women, diffused thinning of hair is observed around the crown while the frontal hairline fades out; the thinning of hair may also appear around the side of the scalp.
• Alopecia areata: This condition has autoimmune pathogenesis and the hair loss is usually patchy – with different patterns of hair loss. Alopecia areata has a high tendency to recur even after treatment. The patch, so created by this condition, has an oval shape and is normally confined to a particular spot around the body. There are two other types of alopecia areata: alopecia totalis, which is characterized by the complete loss of hair on the scalp, and alopecia universalis which involves the loss of hair from the entire body. Plus, black or yellow dots and light-colored, thin hair may also be seen on the scalp.
• Trichorrhexis nodosa: This form of hair loss is associated with trauma emanating from the application of heat, excessive hair brushing, skintight hairdos, and some underlying conditions that cause one to itch the scalp excessively. Trichorrhexis nodosa may also develop as a result of brittle hair and typically affects both the distal and proximal hair shafts. White nodes do appear on the hairs affected by this condition, and they may also be seen to exhibit other abnormal structural features.
• Trichotillomania: This is about the most difficult type of hair loss to treat as the success of any corrective measure will be equally dependent on the patient desisting from the habitual act of pulling out his/her own hair. It is caused by psychological factors and leads to the emergence of irregularly patterned hair on the scalp. It is most prevalent among children.
• Tinea capitis: This hair loss is common among children of black African descent, and it is caused by a fungal infection. Patchy hair loss is normally evident in patients suffering from this condition – although the hair loss may also affect the whole scalp. Furthermore, scaly spots may be interspersed around the scalp, and there are also a couple of other disease manifestations that usually accompany tinea capitis.

Which Treatment Options are Available to Address Hair Loss?

The forms of treatment available for hair loss treatment in Lucknow are quite expansive, and the good news is that you do not even have to look far away from here as Dr. Rinky Kapoor has a vast knowledge of the latest treatment options, and she has undertaken hundreds of cases that have left many patients highly satisfied with the outcome – improved cosmetics, with hair being restored to give an attractive natural outlook.

Apart from hair transplant procedures, medications such as minoxidil and finasteride can also be prescribed to treat hair loss. Minoxidil works for both men and women and it acts by stimulating the enlargement of the hair follicles. This action leads to the solidification of hair strands, setting the stage for considerable hair regrowth. Finasteride is, however, normally recommended for men, and it is known to be highly effective in treating androgenetic alopecia. Finasteride tunes down [and/or out] the activity of the dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hormone which is responsible for the collapse of hair follicles. By the way, DHT hormone plays a significant role in the development of male characteristics.

Another form of hair loss treatment in Lucknow is laser therapy; this is achieved by administering low-level laser through some specially made combs, hoods, caps, or some other hand-held devices. Hair doctors have, time and again, utilized this treatment in taking care of patients with androgenetic alopecia, and the results have been quite promising. Nutritional supplements enriched with essential minerals [like zinc, iron, calcium, and selenium] and vitamins [such as A, B, C, D, and E] are also suitable for treating hair loss as they can help the hair to regrow.

Platelet-rich plasma treatment is also a good hair loss treatment Lucknow residents can look to get from hair loss treatment clinics in Lucknow. In actualizing treatment objective through platelet-rich plasma treatment, the specialist dwells on the growth factors that the blood plasma is enriched with, and hair regenerative potential of this hair loss treatment is quite impressive. Lastly, the intensive hair root treatment, which is aimed at supply nutrients – through the use of microinjection – to the hair, right from the root, is also a notable hair growth booster.
