Temporary hair loss — hair restoration clinic
Home / Hair Transplant / Temporary hair loss — hair restoration clinicThe medical reasons behind hair loss are such a variant — it’s not something you can just Google for an answer. Genetic hair loss is one variant, but it’s not the only reason behind hair loss. Temporary hair loss, also called tefflum effluvium, occurs for several reasons and is one of the main reasons for female hair loss. Some of our female patients at our Los Angeles hair restoration clinic think their hair loss is genetic — when it’s actually temporary. There are a few options for this cause of hair loss, but sometimes the hair loss can become permanent and hair restoration is the only option.
One cause of temporary female hair loss is wearing the hair pulled back too tight. Another cause could be over-processing of the hair or nutritional deficiencies. Once you visit your doctor to find the cause of your hair loss, the next step is the treatment.
Treatment options for female hair loss:
- Minoxidil — Rogaine for Women is one option to help with hair regrowth. It has been shown to help stop androgenetic alopecia and even possibly regrow hair.
- Laser Therapy — Another option for hair loss is a laser comb, such as the HairMax Laser Comb by Lexington. It is the only lasercomb approved by the FDA to help with hair regrowth. The results vary from person to person.
- Hair Transplant — When temporary hair loss turns into permanent hair loss, a hair transplant is a more likely option and one of the only available.
