Female Hair Restoration Overview

Female Hair Restoration 

Many women suffer from hair loss due to stress, hormonal changes, medication, nutrition, and other factors. Hair loss can be particularly difficult for women, causing embarrassment, a lack of self-esteem, or a reduction in the quality of life. Dr. Alizadeh offers cutting-edge hair restoration treatments for women in NYC and Long Island so that they can achieve a thick, full head of hair again.

What causes female hair loss?

While many people think that hair loss is predominantly a male concern, hair loss actually affects about 50% of women. There are a number of possible causes for hair loss, including the following:

  • menopause 
  • autoimmune disease
  • natural changes that come with age
  • genetic predisposition
  • stress
  • hormonal changes 
  • thyroid concerns
  • deficiency in iron 
  • other nutritional deficiencies

Female Hair Restoration Techniques with Dr. Alizadeh


Dr. Alizadeh will consult with you to understand which hair restoration treatment is best for you. He will examine your hair and scalp and discuss your concerns, medical history, and aesthetic goals. Dr. Alizadeh offers the following female hair restoration treatments in NYC:

Hair Transplantation


Hair transplantation is a minimally-invasive surgical procedure that effectively restores your hair using your own hair follicles. Healthy hair follicles are removed from the donor area at the back or sides of your scalp, where the hair growth is thick and full. These hair follicles are moved to the front of your scalp or wherever the hair is thinning. Once the hair is transplanted, the new hair growth begins to restore a thick, healthy head of hair in about six months. This type of hair restoration is extremely effective, resulting in no or very minimal scarring. 

Finasteride


Finasteride is an oral prescription product that helps to slow hair loss and restore a healthy, thick head of hair. Finasteride prevents the body from producing DHT. DHT inhibits the function of an important chemical that triggers healthy hair growth and new cell generation. The results of Finasteride may take up to a year to become visible but can be a very highly effective treatment once the effects are fully apparent. 

PRF, Platinum PRP 2.0 and ExoBoost Hair Restoration


PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) and Platinum PRP 2.0 are effective injectable treatments that achieve hair restoration for women. These treatments are non-surgical alternatives to reverse hair loss causing thinning, a wider part, or a receding hairline.

PRF and Platinum PRP 2.0 hair restoration uses a purified form of your body’s own plasma to achieve stronger, healthier hair growth. PRF and Platinum PRP 2.0 contain platelets, which contain natural growth factors. While PRF and Platinum PRP 2.0 are both highly effective, Platinum PRP 2.0 and has more growth factors and healing factors than traditional PRP.

During a PRF or Platinum PRP 2.0 treatment, a small amount of blood is drawn from your arm. The plasma with the growth factors is then separated from the rest of the blood. This plasma is injected into the scalp in the area where the hair is thinning, helping regenerate and reactivate the hair follicles. This results in stronger, thicker hair growth. 

With ExoBoost Hair Restoration, Dr. Alizadeh harvests regenerative cells from adipose tissue (fat). Fat is the body's largest source of regenerative cells and Dr. Alizadeh has pioneered this procedure to isolate 15 times the regenerative cells as those seen in traditional PRP for the most effective result.
