Hair-loss medication

About the Treatment

What is hair-loss medication?

It is a personalised medical regimen that combines clinically-validated active compounds: oral finasteride and dutasteride as 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, plus topical or oral minoxidil as a vasodilator, to address androgenetic alopecia and other forms of chronic hair loss. The protocol is built after a scalp assessment, a detailed medical history and, when needed, hormone blood tests. The goal is not only to stop the loss but also to maintain the result long-term and, in many cases, recover part of the density that was lost.

How is the treatment prescribed?

In the first consultation the doctor reviews your clinical history, evaluates the pattern and progression of the loss and, if relevant, requests bloodwork to rule out deficits or hormonal imbalances. From there a personalised regimen is designed, possibly combining oral and topical medication, with adjusted doses and duration. The medication is reassessed periodically to confirm tolerance and response, and is synchronised with other hair treatments such as PRP, mesotherapy and exosomes when a combined protocol is the right fit.

Treatment benefits

Slows the progression of androgenetic alopecia from the first months
Strong synergy with PRP, mesotherapy and exosomes in combined protocols
Doctor-supervised regimen with continuous monitoring and adjustment

Indications and follow-up

The treatment is long-term: improvement is usually visible between months 3 and 6 of consistent use. Consistency and follow-up are key. We review the response periodically and adjust the regimen if any unwanted effects appear or if the loss pattern changes. The medication is paired with healthy habits (sleep, nutrition, stress management) and with in-clinic treatments to amplify the results.

Essential Guidelines

Take the medication at the same time every day to keep stable levels
Attend the scheduled reviews and report any side effect immediately
Combine with healthy habits and, if your doctor advises, with PRP or mesotherapy

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to see effects?

Initial changes usually appear between months 3 and 6. The maximum benefit is reached around month 12 of consistent use, which is why we evaluate the response periodically.

Is it safe to take finasteride or dutasteride long-term?

Yes, they have a well-studied safety profile when prescribed and monitored medically. We assess your clinical history and possible contraindications in consultation before starting them.

Can I combine the medication with PRP or mesotherapy?

Yes, in fact this is the standard approach in our most complete protocols. The medication slows the loss while in-clinic treatments boost hair quality and density.

What happens if I stop the treatment?

If you stop the medication the effect is gradually lost over the following months. That is why the regimen is designed for sustainability and reviewed periodically.
