Hair Loss Treatments Sydney

Hair loss, thinning hair, male and female pattern baldness, and receding hairlines are common in people of all ages. However, the options to address these issues are often not widely discussed.

At Ashbrooke Cosmetic Surgery, we offer a range of evidence-based hair loss and regrowth treatments, both surgical and non-surgical. Our team of doctors and medical staff has extensive training to ensure quality care throughout the treatment process, from consultation to aftercare.

Causes of Hair Loss and Thinning Hair

Hair loss can be triggered by various factors, including chronic stress, hormonal changes, restrictive diets, medications, chemotherapy, environmental exposure, hair products and chemicals, or genetics. Many people who experience hair thinning or baldness have a combination of these contributing factors.

Before deciding on a treatment plan, we recommend an initial consultation with a licensed medical professional to discuss the most suitable treatment options.

Hair Loss Treatments Sydney

Hair loss treatments can include both surgical and non-surgical options. During your consultation, we’ll discuss the treatments available and which options align best with your needs.

 

Non-Surgical Hair Loss Treatment

At Ashbrooke, we often start with non-surgical treatment options where suitable. This approach offers patients flexibility before considering surgical procedures.
Non-surgical options include:

  • Minoxidil – A topical solution applied to the scalp, shown to support hair growth.
  • Propecia – An oral medication that may help maintain hair density. This treatment requires ongoing medical supervision.
  • Traditional hairpieces and wigs – These can be an option to cover areas of hair loss, though they may require regular maintenance.
  • Herbal shampoos and tonics – Some products contain ingredients that may promote scalp health and support hair follicle function.

 

Surgical Hair Loss Treatment

If non-surgical treatments do not align with patient expectations, surgical options, such as hair transplant procedures, may be considered. At Ashbrooke, we offer established hair transplantation techniques including micrografting and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).

Hair Transplant Sydney

Hair transplant procedures involve moving hair from one area of the scalp to another to support hair density in areas affected by thinning. This approach has evolved, and our clinic offers techniques that focus on patient comfort and outcome consistency.

 

Micrograft Hair Transplant

Micrografting is a technique in which hair follicles are transplanted from a donor area to an area with reduced hair density. This procedure involves smaller incisions and can allow for a potentially shorter recovery period.

 

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

In an FUE procedure, individual hair follicles are transplanted to areas of hair thinning. This approach may require more time than other methods, and patients may need multiple sessions.

Recovery times vary, and your practitioner will provide guidance on managing recovery based on your treatment plan.

Risks and Complications

As with any medical treatment, hair restoration procedures carry potential risks and complications. These may include infection, scarring, prolonged swelling, discomfort at the treatment site, and, in some cases, the possibility of the desired outcomes not being achieved. Each patient’s experience and healing process may vary, and it is essential to discuss all possible risks with your practitioner before undergoing any treatment. Our team is committed to providing detailed information on what to expect, ensuring you are well-informed at every stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much hair loss is typical?

Hair loss is a common concern, and understanding what constitutes a typical amount of hair loss can be reassuring. Generally, losing between 50 and 100 strands of hair per day is considered a standard part of the natural hair growth cycle, as these strands are often replaced by the growth of new hair.

Can you recover lost hair?

Hair regrowth may be possible, depending on individual factors and underlying causes. However, certain types of hair thinning, particularly those with a genetic component, may require consultation with a professional. Addressing hair thinning involves exploring various management options, which can be determined through professional advice and treatment.

How long does hair loss last?

Telogen Phase: This is a natural resting phase where hair is neither growing nor shedding, usually lasting 2 to 3 months.

Exogen Phase: This is the natural shedding phase, with hair falling out over 2 to 5 months.
