Understanding Hair Loss: Common Causes and Treatment Options at Elevate Wellness and Medspa
Hair loss can be a distressing experience for both men and women, affecting self-esteem and overall confidence. Understanding the underlying reasons for hair loss and the physiological changes that occur can be crucial in addressing this common issue. At Elevate Wellness and Medspa, we provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatments to help you regain your confidence.
The Hair Shedding Cycle
Hair undergoes a natural shedding cycle that includes three main phases:
Anagen Phase
This is the growth phase where hair actively grows for several years.
Catagen Phase
This transitional phase lasts a few weeks. Hair growth slows down, and the hair follicle shrinks.
Telogen Phase
During this resting phase, which lasts about three months, hair does not grow but remains attached to the follicle until it is eventually shed. Hair loss occurs when more hairs enter the telogen phase than the anagen phase.
As we age, or due to various other factors, the balance of this cycle can be disrupted, leading to thinning and excessive shedding.
Common Hair Loss Diagnoses
The following are the top five hair loss diagnoses commonly encountered:
Comprehensive Assessment
At Elevate Wellness and Medspa, we begin with a thorough assessment that includes **trichoscopy** performed by our licensed cosmetologist. This specialized examination allows us to visualize the scalp and hair follicles in detail, identifying any abnormalities such as miniaturization of hair follicles, inflammation, or scalp conditions that may contribute to hair loss. This information is invaluable in developing a targeted treatment plan.
