When it comes to hair loss, there can be a variety of factors that result in this condition. Heredity, diet, changing hormones, medical conditions and medications, even stress or some hairstyles and treatments can leave you with hair loss. For this reason, our dermatologists will be asking questions that can help diagnose the cause so it can be effectively treated.
In addition, your scalp and hair will be evaluated and a biopsy or blood test may be done. Once the cause has been determined, Dr. Kraig K. Jenson, Byron Edwards or Dr. Devin Burr can make a more accurate diagnosis and recommend treatment.
Our Dermatology Center in Orem, Utah offers the following treatments for hair loss:
-Hair transplantation: Transplanting skin on the scalp with normal hair growth onto those areas of the scalp that are deficient.
-Scalp reduction: Removing the bald areas of the scalp and closing the gaps on the scalp with healthy hair growth.
-Scalp expansion: Inserting expanders beneath the scalp to stretch the scalp for three to four weeks so hair-growing areas can be used.
