Premature balding, thinning and excessive hair loss are becoming increasingly common. It is no longer a problem associated with middle-aged men. With stressful lifestyles being the norm, young men and women now experience excessive hair fall and thinning scalps.
As a result, many trichology centres are booming, with variable results, often at great cost.
Doctors used to offer mesotherapy to stimulate hair growth, but some countries, such as Singapore, have banned this practice because of lack of published scientific evidence.
Although the standard medical treatment for hair loss is the use of topical Minoxidil coupled with oral Propecia. the results of these medicines are often unsatisfactory. Hence many will start the treatment only to give up after 3-6 months when little change is seen.
Occasionally, non-prescription treatments can provide a pleasant surprise! One such product is XL Hair from Aesthetic Dermal. This serum comprises 47 active components, including 10 vitamins, 17 amino acids, 7 minerals and other natural ingredients known to nourish the hair follicle and reduce hair loss.
The treatment involves using a jet a compressed air to push the hair serum into the thinning areas of the scalp. The solution is then massaged in. This process is repeated weekly for 8 weeks, in combination with a hair tonic spray for home use. Obvious hair thickening is visible within a month of treatment and no side effects are experienced.
