Treating Female Hair Loss

This insightful article was written by  Dr. Michael Meshkin  of Newport Beach, CA who is one of our recommended hair restoration physicians.

Hair loss can be devastating in men and women. When I started in hair restoration 20 years ago I rarely had female patients, however in the past few years, I have noticed that the number of patients with female  hair loss has increased tremendously.

Following evaluation and examination if  female pattern baldness is due to hyper androgenic conditions she can benefit from anti-androgen therapy. We consider hair transplant surgery if the patient is a good candidate. I have had many female patients that had great results with anti-androgen therapy and also I have treated women that had success with hair replacement. In either case the results had tremendous effect on the clients self esteem.
