In most cases, hair loss may not draw your attention until some sort of patch appears on your scalp. Nonetheless, you should request to see a hair doctor in Raipur if you are losing a substantial amount of hair on a daily basis, or in instances whereby you have other disease symptoms along with the hair loss. You should also note that hair loss could be triggered by conditions/events such as severe stress, pregnancy/childbirth, ringworm, and so on.

How is Hair Loss Diagnosed?

The first line of action that would be undertaken by the hair specialist, upon a patient’s initial appointment, will be to establish the root cause of the hair loss – the diagnosis phase. The specialist can attempt to perform a pull test, checking to see how frail your hairs are. Another means of diagnosing hair loss is through the scalp biopsy technique whereby the hair doctor scrapes the scalp to obtain some samples which would then be placed under the microscope for hair root examination. A blood test may also be used to check if there is an underlying condition responsible for hair loss. Again, you should be mindful that the doctor will ask to know about your medical history, and also whether there is a history of hair loss in your lineage, as well as other salient questions that would help make an accurate diagnosis.

Types of Hair Loss

There are different types of hair loss that can warrant treatment. In essence, human beings do not lose hair in the manner, and some of the types that people normally visit the best hair clinic in Raipur for treatment are hereby briefly discussed:

Alopecia Areata: This is about the most prevalent type of hair loss, and it is considered to be an autoimmune disorder. Alopecia areata is characterized by the appearance of patches on the scalp and other parts of the body – it is further subdivided on this basis. In the event where the loss of hair involves the whole scalp, it is known as alopecia totalis; if the hair loss extends to the other parts of the body like the beard, eyelashes, eyebrows, and pubic hair, we have alopecia universalis.

Androgenetic Alopecia: This form of hair loss is attributed to a combination of hormonal and genetic factors, meaning that it can be transmitted from one generation to other. Androgenetic alopecia can either as male pattern baldness (in men) or female pattern baldness (in women) – its effect is, however, more apparent in men. The male pattern baldness is reflected right from the hairline of the forehead while the female pattern baldness starts around the crown of the scalp.

Traction Alopecia: Traction alopecia results due to the exertion of a pulling force on the hair follicles, and it can be triggered when making tight hairdos like cornrows, (tight) ponytails, and braids. Traction alopecia may evolve with symptoms such as short broken hair, itching, and folliculitis, and leaving it unaddressed may eventually cause permanent hair loss.

Trichotillomania: This describes a condition whereby a person pulls out his or her hair – whether intentionally or unintentionally – and it is attributed to psychological factors. Hair loss treatment in Raipur for this condition will go beyond administering the regular medication or routine as the patient may also have to undergo cognitive behavioural therapy.

Tinea Capitis: Also known as scalp ringworm, tinea capitis is the fallout of a fungal infection and it is characterized by the appearance of round spots all around the scalp. This particular type of hair loss is most prevalent in children.

Telogen Effluvium: Telogen effluvium describes the premature entry of the hair follicles into the resting phase (that is, telogen), and it usually leads to hair thinning on the scalp. This premature entry can be triggered by childbirth, severe stress, infection, childbirth, as well as certain medications [like antidepressants, retinoids, calcium channel blockers, etc.]. Hair loss due to telogen effluvium is temporary and may not necessarily need to be treated.

Hair Loss Treatment at The Esthetic Clinics

In some cases, the need to undergo hair loss treatment in Raipur may be informed by the desire for improvement in appearance, and in other instances, it could be based on addressing specific underlying medical conditions. Irrespective of what the objective may be, at The Esthetic Clinics, we have one of the best hair doctors in Raipur – and even India as a whole – in Dr. Rinky Kapoor. She has guided numerous patients through several hair loss treatments with impressive outcomes to show for it. Depending on your condition, she will be on hand to provide you with any of the following hair loss treatments in Raipur:

Hair Transplant

Hair transplant is used in addressing permanent hair loss, and it is vastly recommended for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia. It involves the transfer of graft from one spot – where hair is found – to another part where the loss of hair is obvious. This surgical protocol is normally done under local anaesthesia, and you are not expected to be hospitalized to have it performed on you. The two approaches to hair transplant surgery are:

• Follicular Unit Extraction: This has to do with transferring the hair follicles that have been directly removed from an area of the scalp to the area reflecting hair loss.
• Follicular Unit Transplantation: In this instance, the cosmetic surgeon will remove some strip of skin at the back of the scalp having abundant hair, remove the hair follicles and then transfer them (that is, the hair follicles) to the part of the scalp where hair has been lost.

As with every other surgery, hair transplantation also has potential complications – like swelling, infection, and bleeding – so, it is of utmost importance to ensure that you have this procedure performed on you by a certified and experienced dermatologist/cosmetic surgeon – this is exactly what both Dr. Rinky Kapoor and Dr. Debraj Shome bring to the fore at The Esthetic Clinics.

Laser Hair Loss Treatment

Laser hair loss treatment concerns the delivery of low-dose laser beams to the area reflecting hair loss; this is done with the aid of hand-held devices like brushes, combs, caps, and hoods. The mechanism of action for this treatment type is hinged on the stimulation of hair follicles to the point of hair regrowth. This is also effective for treating hair loss that is triggered by hereditary/genetic factors.

Medications

There are also some medications available for hair loss treatment in Raipur. Some of these medications include:

• Minoxidil (Rogaine): This medication, which is available in liquid, and shampoo forms, can be topically applied to the scalp – the part affected by the hair loss to be more precise. Though this medication is reported to be effective, the outcome may not show until after six months. More so, one will need to continually use it to sustain a positive outcome – hair regrowth.
• Finasteride (Propecia): This is an oral medication that is particularly recommended for the treatment of hair loss in men. It works by slowing down the rate at which hair is lost, and even stimulates the regrowth of hair in some instances.

Hair loss treatment can also be achieved by using medications such as oral dutasteride, spironolactone, as well as medications containing anti-oxidants, amino acids, dihydrotestosterone blockers, and vasodilators.

Nutritional Supplements

The dermatologist may also recommend that you take certain nutritional supplements to aid in restoring your hair. Supplements enriched with vitamins (A, B complex, C, D, and E), as well as zinc, iron, and calcium are known to be effective for this cause.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment

This hair loss treatment involves the use of platelet rich plasma obtained from the patient to stimulate the growth of new hair. The growth factors and healing compounds of this highly concentrated blood plasma are the reasons for its potency.
