Hair Loss Treatment & Alopecia Specialists

Effective Hair Loss Treatment Solutions from Trichology Toronto Centre

Hair Tattoo Clinic and Hair Loss Clinic Toronto are divisions of TRICHOLOGY CENTRE in Toronto and Richmond Hill. Our trichologist can help you develop a specialized hair loss treatment plan for your hair loss issues. We are a hair loss specialist in Toronto.

Trichology investigates the anatomy, physiology, nutrition, and chemistry/physics of hair/skin. A trichologist inquires about nutrition, medical history, genetics, lifestyle, and hygiene to identify hair/scalp issues.

Trichologists are highly trained professionals specializing in the intricate science behind the structure, function, and various conditions affecting the hair and scalp. They possess extensive knowledge that enables them to accurately diagnose hair and scalp issues, empowering individuals to embark on a journey of recovery.

PRP Hair Treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia

PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma, is a safe, non-invasive treatment for androgenetic alopecia. It uses your blood to harvest the platelet-rich plasma, which has many growth factors to stimulate hair regrowth.

Clinical studies have shown that PRP can promote hair regrowth by prolonging the growth phase of the hair cycle. During the PRP treatment, your blood is taken and spun in a centrifuge machine to separate the platelets and plasma.

The PRP is injected into the scalp using a microneedling device or injection gun (seen in the video). It takes a minimum of 3 months post-treatment to see a visible improvement in your hair loss.

If you notice persistent hair loss or thinning, it may be a sign to seek guidance from a trichologist

Hair loss can be attributed to a combination of factors. One significant factor is genetic predisposition, which can lead to male-pattern baldness in men and female-pattern baldness in women. Hormonal imbalances, particularly involving androgens, can also contribute to hair loss. Additionally, hair loss may be connected to autoimmune disorders like alopecia areata, characterized by the immune system mistakenly attacking the hair follicles.

Stress is another factor that can impact hair health. Both sudden and chronic stress can result in a condition known as telogen effluvium, characterized by sudden shedding of hair a few months after a stressful event or prolonged stress. Furthermore, specific medications, including chemotherapy drugs, can result in hair loss during the anagen phase, which is referred to as anagen effluvium.

The role of nutrition in maintaining healthy hair cannot be understated, and deficiencies in protein or specific vitamins and minerals can contribute to hair loss. In addition, excessive cosmetic procedures like bleaching, straightening, dyeing, and over-shampooing can damage the hair shaft and lead to hair loss. Underlying medical conditions, including thyroid disease, lupus, eating disorders, anemia, and others, can also be associated with hair loss.

Hair loss can occur due to various circumstances, such as illness, injury, or childbirth. Conditions like ringworm, caused by a fungal infection, can lead to temporary hair loss. Additionally, hormonal changes during pregnancy can affect hair growth. Lastly, trichotillomania, a mental disorder characterized by an irresistible urge to pull out one’s hair, can also contribute to hair loss.

Understanding the potential causes of hair loss is essential in seeking appropriate treatment and addressing the underlying factors contributing to the condition. Consulting with a trichologist or hair loss specialist can provide a detailed evaluation and personalized hair loss treatment plan based on individual needs.

A Trichologist Can Identify the Source of Your Hair Loss. Some of These Include

Hereditary factors – Genetic factors, such as male pattern baldness in men and female pattern baldness in women, can influence hair loss. These conditions are often inherited from family members.
Hormones – Hair loss can be triggered by hormonal imbalances, particularly those involving abnormal levels of androgens. Hair loss can be influenced by hormonal imbalances, vital for regulating growth.
Autoimmune disease – Alopecia areata is characterized by an autoimmune response where the body’s immune system mistakenly targets the hair follicles. This can result in patchy hair loss or complete baldness in some cases.
Stress – Stressful events or chronic stress can disrupt the hair growth cycle, leading to a condition known as telogen effluvium. Hair loss of this nature is marked by the abrupt shedding of hair a few months following a stressful event or prolonged stress.
Drugs – Certain medications, such as chemotherapy drugs, can cause hair loss as a side effect. The temporary damage to the hair follicles caused by drugs leads to hair loss, referred to as anagen effluvium.
Diet and nutrition – Poor nutrition, particularly a diet lacking adequate protein and essential vitamins and minerals, can contribute to hair loss. Nutritional deficiencies can weaken the hair follicles and impair proper hair growth.
Cosmetic procedures – Hair loss can be triggered by excessive use of certain cosmetic procedures, including frequent bleaching, straightening, dyeing, and over-shampooing, which can damage the hair shaft.
Medical conditions – Various medical conditions, including thyroid disease, lupus, eating disorders, anemia, and others, can cause hair loss as a symptom of the underlying condition. Treating the underlying condition is essential for addressing hair loss in these cases.
Illness, injury, and childbirth – Certain illnesses, injuries, and hormonal changes during pregnancy and childbirth can result in temporary hair loss. For example, a fungal infection like ringworm can cause hair loss in affected areas.
Mental disorder – Trichotillomania is a psychological condition characterized by an uncontrollable urge to pluck out one’s hair. This condition requires professional psychological support and treatment to address the underlying cause.

Hair Loss Treatments That Are Available From a Trichologist

Some treatments for hair loss that may be available from a trichologist include topical therapies such as AAPE, PRP, low-level laser, ultraviolet, massage, and aromatherapy, as well as diet and nutrition advice.

Referral to a Medical Specialist

A trichologist can refer you to other specialists for diagnosis. Blood work may be necessary to check for nutritional deficiencies. A scalp biopsy can reveal cicatricial alopecia. An endocrinologist can determine if hormones are a factor. A psychologist could be consulted if hair loss was due to trauma or stress. If you're having hair or scalp issues, call a certified trichologist at the Trichology Centre. You can call the Trichology Centre in Toronto or Richmond Hill at 647-492-9093.
