Do you have thinning hair? If your hair shows the following signs then you need to seek a quick remedy for thinning hair:
- Gradual thinning on top of head. This is the most common type of hair loss, affecting people as they age
- Circular or patchy bald spots
- Sudden loosening of hair
- Full-body hair loss
- Patches of scaling that spread over the scalp
The following treatments would help you have fuller hair on your head:
1. Minoxidil (Rogaine)
This medication is a foam or a liquid that you put on your scalp. You can buy it over the counter without a prescription. You may have to use it for several months before your hair starts to thicken. If you do regrow hair, you will lose it again if you stop taking minoxidil.
2.Finasteride (Propecia)
Thisprescription medication is a pill you take by mouth. You may have to take finasteride for months before you see results, and you’ll lose new hair if you stop taking it.
3. Microneedling
A device with hundreds of tiny needles that you use on your scalp may help hair grow, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. The site says research suggests that microneedling may work better if you use it along with another hair loss treatment. You can buy one of these devices without a prescription, but talk to a dermatologist first. They can let you know if it’s safe for you, and they can recommend a specific microneedling device.
4. Hair transplant
This type of surgery can give you lasting results. A surgeon removes individual hairs—or a strip of skin with hairs—from one part of your scalp and transplants them to thinning or balding areas. The surgery takes 4 to 8 hours, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. You need to talk with a dermatologist to find out if this treatment is right for you.
6. Platelet-rich plasma
A dermatologist takes a bit of your blood and puts it in a machine that separates the plasma from it. Then they inject the plasma into the parts of your scalp where you’re losing hair. The whole procedure takes around 10 minutes, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Most people get the treatment once a month for 3 months, with a follow-up treatment every 3 to 6 months.
