Hair Loss: Causes and Treatment Options

Understanding Hair Loss

Hair loss, also known as alopecia, is a condition that can affect people of all ages and genders. It can be caused by genetics, hormonal changes, lifestyle factors, or medical conditions. At Rejuvenation Medical Spa, we understand how hair loss can affect your confidence and quality of life. That’s why we offer a variety of advanced, effective treatments to help you regain your hair and confidence.

Types of Hair Loss

Androgenetic Alopecia (Male/Female Pattern Baldness): The most common type of hair loss caused by genetics. Men often experience a receding hairline or balding at the crown, while women notice thinning hair, especially at the top of the head.
Alopecia Areata: Sudden hair loss in round patches, often related to an autoimmune response.
Telogen Effluvium: Temporary hair loss caused by stress, illness, or life changes that leads to excessive shedding.
Traction Alopecia: Hair loss caused by repeated tension on the hair due to tight hairstyles like braids or ponytails.
Scarring Alopecia: Hair loss caused by inflammation that damages the hair follicles, often resulting in permanent hair loss.

Causes of Hair Loss

Hair loss can result from a variety of factors, including:

Genetics: Family history plays a large role in hair loss.
Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy, menopause, thyroid disorders, and other hormonal fluctuations can lead to hair thinning.
Stress and Illness: Physical or emotional stress, as well as medical conditions like diabetes or lupus, may trigger hair loss.
Nutritional Deficiencies: Inadequate intake of vitamins, minerals, and protein can weaken hair growth.
Medications: Certain medications for cancer, heart disease, and high blood pressure can cause hair thinning.

Hair Loss Treatments at Rejuvenation Medical Spa

At Rejuvenation Medical Spa in Brookings, SD, we offer a range of advanced, non-invasive, and minimally invasive treatments to address hair loss. Our treatments are personalized to meet your unique needs, helping you achieve natural-looking results.

1. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy for Hair Restoration

PRP therapy is one of the most popular and effective treatments for hair loss. This procedure involves using your body’s own platelets, which are rich in growth factors, to stimulate hair follicles and promote hair regrowth. PRP therapy has been shown to improve hair thickness and overall hair health.

How it Works:

A small amount of your blood is drawn and processed to isolate the platelet-rich plasma.
The PRP is then injected into your scalp in the areas of thinning or hair loss.
Over time, the growth factors in the PRP stimulate hair follicles, encouraging new growth and improving hair density.

2. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

Low-level laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses laser light to stimulate hair follicles and promote hair regrowth. This painless procedure is ideal for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or early-stage hair loss.

Benefits of LLLT:

Improves hair strength and thickness.
Encourages regrowth of dormant hair follicles.
Painless and non-invasive with no downtime.

3. Hair Restoration Injections

In addition to PRP, we offer specialized hair restoration injections using customized formulas designed to nourish and rejuvenate the scalp. These injections are tailored to each patient’s specific needs and can improve hair health and promote new growth.

4. Nutritional Support and Supplementation

Healthy hair begins from within. At Rejuvenation Medical Spa, we offer consultations to assess your nutritional health and provide recommendations for supplements that support hair growth. Nutrients like biotin, zinc, and iron are essential for maintaining strong, healthy hair.
