Hair Loss: Diagnosis & Treatment

Finding the Cause Before Choosing the Treatment

Losing some hair daily is normal. What’s worth addressing is ongoing thinning, a widening parting, a receding hairline, or a sudden increase in shedding that doesn’t settle down. The cause determines everything; what works for genetic pattern baldness is quite different from what works for hair fall triggered by thyroid imbalance or iron deficiency.

Starting treatment without that distinction is why many patients spend money on PRP or supplements that don’t move the needle. Assessment at Sure Skin Clinic includes scalp examination, dermoscopy where needed, and blood tests if nutritional or hormonal causes are suspected. Some patients need medical treatment. Some benefit from PRP or mesotherapy. Some only need nutritional correction. The plan depends on what the assessment actually shows.

Diagnosis Before Treatment

We identify the cause of hair loss before recommending anything. Hormonal, nutritional, genetic, and scalp causes each need a different approach.

PRP With Growth Factor Concentration

Blood is processed to concentrate platelets and growth factors, then injected into the scalp to stimulate active follicles.

Mesotherapy for Scalp Health

Vitamins, minerals, and peptides are delivered directly into the scalp layer, making treatment more targeted than oral supplementation.

Transplant Guidance When Relevant

For advanced hair loss where follicles are inactive, transplant options are discussed honestly, including whether improvement is possible.

Treatment Options Available

Treatment is selected based on cause, stage of hair loss, and how the scalp responds over time. Most plans involve a combination rather than a single intervention.

Topical Minoxidil

Oral Medication

PRP and Mesotherapy – What Each One Does

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) draws a small amount of your blood, processes it to concentrate the growth factors, and injects that plasma into the scalp. The growth factors stimulate follicle activity, reducing active shedding, improving hair thickness, and supporting follicles that are weakening but still functional. It works on follicles that are still alive. In areas where follicles have been inactive for a long time, PRP won’t regrow hair — and patients at Sure Skin Clinic are told this clearly before any treatment begins.

Mesotherapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and peptides directly into the scalp layer where they’re needed, bypassing the absorption variability of oral supplementation. It’s used alongside PRP or as part of a combined protocol, particularly for patients who need additional scalp support. Most PRP courses involve 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every few months. Hair biology doesn’t respond to one-time treatment and realistic expectations from the outset make the process significantly less frustrating.

Female Hair Thinning

Diffuse thinning, hormonal causes: Thinning along the parting, reduced ponytail volume, and increased shedding are commonly seen. Hormonal evaluation remains standard. Treatment includes hormonal management, nutritional correction, PRP therapy, and scalp-focused protocols depending entirely on the findings.

Male Pattern Hair Loss

Receding hairline, crown thinning: Gradual loss following a predictable pattern. Early-stage responds to medication, PRP, and mesotherapy. Advanced loss where follicles are inactive is managed with transplant guidance rather than continued PRP.

Post-Pregnancy & Stress-Related Shedding

Telogen effluvium - often reversible: Sudden diffuse shedding follows pregnancy, illness, weight loss, or stress. The condition is reversible once triggers are corrected. Correction alongside PRP helps recovery and regrowth.

Scalp Condition-Related Hair Loss

Dandruff, psoriasis, fungal infections: Scalp inflammation and infections worsen hair loss considerably. Treating underlying scalp condition directly is considered an essential part of the management plan, rather than being treated as secondary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Discover personalied care & expertise at our clinic, where we blend artistry and pervision to enhance you confidence.

Will PRP regrow hair that's completely gone?

No. PRP works on follicles that are still active. Where follicles have been inactive for a long time, a transplant is the more appropriate option. Dr. Suresh will assess what applies at consultation.

Is PRP uncomfortable?

Most patients tolerate it without much difficulty. Mild discomfort during injection is short-lived. The scalp may feel tender for a day or two after.

How long do results last?

Depends on the cause. For genetic or hormonal causes that are ongoing, maintenance sessions sustain the improvement. Dr. Suresh gives a realistic maintenance schedule at consultations.

Do I need PRP or could medication be enough?

Some patients improve significantly with medical treatment and nutritional correction alone, without any procedural treatment. That's the preferred outcome where it's possible.
