Understanding Female Alopecia
Female alopecia manifests as a loss of hair density that can significantly affect quality of life. Unlike male pattern baldness, it rarely leads to total baldness, but rather to diffuse or localized thinning. A precise medical diagnosis is essential to determine the underlying cause and choose the most appropriate treatment.
Common Causes of Alopecia in Women
Various factors can contribute to hair loss in women. Among the most frequent are hormonal imbalances, such as those associated with menopause or polycystic ovary syndrome. Genetics, nutritional deficiencies, stress, or certain autoimmune diseases also play a role.
Identifying the cause is the first step towards an effective solution. A detailed medical history and specific tests guide this process. At Santé, our doctors conduct a comprehensive evaluation before proposing any intervention.
Medical Diagnosis of Female Alopecia
The diagnosis of female alopecia requires a rigorous medical approach. Our specialists conduct a free hair consultation where they evaluate the pattern of loss, scalp health, and clinical history. Additionally, blood tests may be requested to rule out deficiencies or hormonal imbalances.
Diagnostic accuracy is key to successful treatment. In cases where additional diagnostic tests not available at our clinic are required, our doctors will guide you on the next steps.
Treatment Options at Santé Clínica Estética
At Santé Clínica Estética, we address female alopecia with advanced and personalized medical treatments. Our goal is to stimulate hair growth and improve density, always under the supervision of our doctors. We prioritize natural results and long-term hair health.
Hair Mesotherapy
Hair mesotherapy consists of microinjections of a combination of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids directly into the scalp. This treatment nourishes hair follicles, improves blood circulation, and stimulates hair growth. A cycle of several sessions is recommended to observe optimal results.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Treatment
Hair PRP uses the patient's own growth factors to revitalize the scalp. A small blood sample is drawn, centrifuged to obtain platelet-rich plasma, and injected into the affected areas. This process promotes cell regeneration and strengthens existing hair, with results varying individually.
Hair Exosome Therapy
Exosome therapy represents an advanced option for hair regeneration. Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that contain growth factors and reparative signals. They are applied to the scalp to stimulate inactive follicles and promote denser, healthier hair growth. This treatment aims for progressive and natural results.
