Hair Loss: What Causes It, What Types Exist, and the Most Advanced Treatments We Offer at Dr Alexa Clinic

Hair loss affects millions of people each year and can be emotionally challenging, whether it appears as thinning at the crown, sudden shedding or persistent patches. At Dr Alexa Clinic we take a holistic, scientific approach that addresses both the causes and the long-term solutions using regenerative and aesthetic medicine.

Common causes include genetic predisposition, hormonal imbalances (pregnancy, menopause, thyroid), nutritional deficiencies, stress, medical conditions such as alopecia areata, and traction from tight hairstyles. Because each cause produces a different pattern, a personalised approach is essential, beginning with a thorough consultation and scalp analysis.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy uses growth factors from a small sample of your own blood, injected into the scalp to stimulate follicles, improve blood flow and support healthier regrowth over time.

Microneedling with exosomes creates controlled micro-injuries that prompt natural repair, while exosomes rich in regenerative molecules help signal new growth — making it one of the more advanced options for thinning or damaged hair.

Polynucleotides, derived from purified DNA fragments, enhance tissue repair, improve circulation and reduce inflammation, creating a healthier environment for follicles. Where appropriate we may also recommend pharmaceutical support such as topical minoxidil or, for hormone-related loss, oral medication, alongside nutritional advice.

Red light therapy is included free of charge with all hair-loss treatments. This non-invasive therapy stimulates follicles, enhances circulation and improves cellular energy, helping to extend the growth phase of the hair cycle and complementing the other treatments.
