Hair Loss Treatment

Do You Suffer From Hair Loss?

Millions of men and women in Canada—including Barrie, Orillia, and Collingwood—have hair loss concerns. However, 95% of these cases can be treated successfully, and it can be reversed in many cases. Men and women suffer hair loss for many different reasons. In most men, hair loss appears as a receding hairline or balding on the top of the head or the crown. This is known as male pattern baldness, but for women this type of hair loss typically doesn’t follow any pattern, but the hair will noticeably thin out over time.

At Spa Lumina, we have the latest technology in TransEpidermal Delivery (TED) for hair restoration that doesn’t involve any pain, needles, surgery, or downtime.

How Does it Work?

We use the TED to leverage acoustic sound waves to drive a vegan, hypoallergenic hair restoration serum deep into the scalp which results in thicker, fuller, and more hair. Three to four treatments are recommended and are spaced at 4 weeks apart.

Common Causes For Hair Loss The TED Can Treat:

Androgenic Alopecia

Both male and female pattern baldness is genetic. Males tend to lose hair from the temples and crown of the head. In females, hair usually becomes thinner all over the head.

Pregnancy

Some women may experience excessive hair loss shortly after giving birth. This is due to a decrease in estrogen levels.

Medications

Certain medications have side effects that can cause hair to fall out. Consult with Dr. Gandhi to learn more.

Telogen Effluvium

A condition where the hair remains in the telogen (natural shedding) phase of the growth cycle. This causes more hair to fall out, sometimes in handfuls.

Anagen Effluvium

Anagen effluvium causes large amounts of hair to fall out rapidly during the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle.

Alopecia Areata

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition that causes hair to fall out suddenly. The immune system attacks hair follicles, along with other healthy parts of the body.

Traction alopecia

Traction alopecia is hair loss due to pulling hair into tight hairstyles, which causes it to break and come loose.

Poor Nutrition

Nutritional deficiencies can cause hair to fall out. Extreme diets that are too low in protein and certain vitamins, such as iron, can sometimes cause excessive hair shedding.

Birth Control

If people are taking birth control pills, they can choose one that has a low androgen index. This may help to lower the risk of hair loss.
