Female Hair Thinning & Hair Loss Treatments
Hair loss is a common concern for women, and it can be emotionally distressing. Whether you’re experiencing hair thinning, a receding hairline, or overall hair loss, you’re not alone. At Revivify Medical Spa in Beaumont, Texas, we understand the impact hair loss can have on your self-confidence and well-being. In this blog post, we’ll explore female hair loss statistics, explain female alopecia, delve into its causes, and introduce our advanced hair restoration treatments tailored to your needs.
It’s Much More Common Than You Imagine
Female hair loss is more prevalent than you might think. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, approximately 40% of women experience visible hair loss by the age of 40. By the age of 65, this number increases to around 80%. These statistics emphasize the importance of addressing hair thinning and loss in women.
Understanding Female Alopecia
Female alopecia refers to hair loss or hair thinning in women and can be classified into different types:
- Androgenetic Alopecia: Also known as female pattern baldness, this is the most common type of hair loss in women. It is characterized by a gradual thinning of hair on the top of the head while maintaining the hairline.
- Telogen Effluvium: This type of hair loss occurs when a significant number of hair follicles enter the resting phase (telogen) prematurely, leading to hair shedding.
- Alopecia Areata: It is an autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system attacks hair follicles, causing hair loss in small, round patches on the scalp.
Causes of Female Hair Thinning & Hair Loss
Numerous factors contribute to hair loss in women, including:
- Hormonal Changes: Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during pregnancy, menopause, or thyroid disorders, can trigger hair loss.
- Genetics: Family history plays a significant role in female pattern baldness, making it more likely for some women to experience hair loss.
- Stress & Illness: Physical or emotional stress and certain illnesses can lead to temporary hair loss due to disruptions in the hair growth cycle.
- Hairstyles & Treatments: Excessive use of harsh hair treatments, tight hairstyles (like ponytails or braids), and extensions can damage hair and lead to hair loss.
- Nutritional Deficiencies: Inadequate intake of essential nutrients, such as iron, zinc, and biotin, can contribute to hair thinning.
Innovative Treatments that Work!
While women in the past had no recourse but to wear wigs or accept their baldness with as much courage as possible, today, we are lucky enough to have minimally invasive treatments that can help regrow hair naturally and offer long-term results.
Alma TED Hair Restoration
Alma TED (Targeted Epidermal Dermabrasion) is a cutting-edge hair restoration treatment offered at Revivify Medical Spa in Beaumont, Texas. This innovative procedure utilizes microdermabrasion to stimulate hair follicles and promote natural hair growth. During the treatment, a specialized device gently exfoliates the scalp, enhancing blood circulation to the hair follicles and encouraging the regrowth of healthy hair. Alma TED is a non-invasive and painless procedure, with most patients describing the experience as, “pleasant and relaxing”. There is no downtime, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities immediately.
You will start noticing improvements as early as 2-weeks after your first treatment, and most patients see noticeable improvements one month after the initial treatment, including decreased shedding, increased hair growth, improved scalp health, and hair texture. For optimal results, several sessions may be recommended, spaced three weeks apart. Over time, patients can expect visible improvements in hair density and thickness, helping them regain their confidence and achieve the luscious locks they desire.
Hair Restoration with Exosomes Treatment
Exosomes are mediators of cell-to-cell communication; they are in charge of delivering essential lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
All cell types produce exosomes; however, the ones released by regenerative cells like stem cells have an extraordinary capacity to induce healing and repair in other cells.
Our exosome hair restoration treatment uses purified stem cell-derived exosomes. The exosomes are small and nimble enough to travel through the bloodstream to deliver essential proteins to damaged follicles restoring them and triggering new hair growth.
The treatment involves carefully injecting the exosomes into the scalp; there is very little pain or discomfort associated with this procedure and no downtime. Best of all, you will start seeing new hair growth in as little as
PRP Hair Regrowth and Restoration Treatment
PRP in hair restoration is also known as “Liquid Gold” due to the yellow serum derived from platelets extracted from your blood.
This Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) contains vital growth factors that work to reactivate and regenerate damaged follicles when injected into your scalp.
Because the experts at Revivify Medical Spa use your blood to make the powerful PRP, no adverse side effects are associated with this treatment. Additionally, since this is a non-surgical hair restoration therapy, there is no downtime.
Most patients require one treatment a month for four months to see long-lasting results. However, patients with severe or advanced female alopecia may require additional treatments.
If you are experiencing hair loss or thinning hair, know that solutions are available. We can help you regain the lustrous hair of your dreams quickly and painlessly.
