Suggest Treatment For Hair Loss

default
Posted on Mon, 19 May 2014
Question: Hello Sir,
I have been facing hair loss problems for the past 8 years.[Dandruff].
I dont want to be bald as my Father and Grandfather.
I consulted a dermatalogist in India after losing lots of hair strands during my travel to UK last year.
I have taken Hair Injections for the first 3 months with Medications.
As there was not much improvement I was routed to Laser Hair comb.
Is really Laser Comb used For Hair Regrowth?
I donot see Dandruff or hair loss being reduced.
I am still continuing the treatment.Any suggestions ?

Brief Answer:
use androanagen tablets

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the follow up.
You are mainly loosing hair from the front and center of scalp.
This is seen in androgenic alopecia. It is a condition where testosterone destroys the hair follicle.
This overactivity can be controlled by using saw palmetto tablet. These are safe and are easily available over the counter.
For dandruff use ketoconazole shampoo daily.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
