Treatments for hair growth in the salon and at home: a review of procedures to accelerate hair growth

Top 7 effective salon hair treatments

Hair is the most important decoration for women that needs to be protected.
But, often, external factors worsen the condition of the hair. They become brittle, lose moisture, grow slowly, and can also fall out and split. In this case, it's time to turn to salon procedures. So, let's get acquainted with the most effective procedures to date, which are aimed not only at improving the aesthetic appearance of hair, but also at making it healthier.

1. Happiness for hair

One of the most popular salon procedures, which is recommended primarily for those with colored hair. The procedure is aimed at restoring and treating hair that has been damaged by dye, straighteners and hair dryers. To achieve a visible effect, it is necessary to undergo a complex consisting of 5 - 6 procedures. Treatment is carried out in 3 stages, which are carried out once every two weeks. The first stage is aimed at treating the hair from the inside, the second stage restores the lipid layer of the hair, and the third stage is devoted to scalp care to strengthen the hair follicle, prevent hair loss and stimulate the rapid growth of healthy hair.

Average cost: 3000-7000 rub.

2. Biolamination

The second most popular salon procedure. Biolamination will be appreciated by those girls who want to grow long hair, but their growth is overshadowed by the presence of dry and brittle hair. During the procedure, the hair is covered with a cellulose film, for example, dandelion or zucchini juice. This allows you to fill the existing keratin voids in the hair structure. The gel-like mixture contains pigments, proteins, and keratins.

Biolamination helps protect hair from damage. Usually transparent or tint substances are applied to the strands. There are more than 20 types of them in the salons. After the film, hair becomes silky, smooth and well-groomed. Biolamination can also be used on colored hair. The effect lasts about a month. Biolamination is useful for hair restoration and is a therapeutic and health procedure.

The procedure takes two to three hours.

Cost of the procedure: from 2000 rub. and higher.

3. Kerating

The hair is treated with a substance enriched with keratin. This is a protein substance that allows you to smooth out and get rid of electricity. It also strengthens and compacts damaged areas. In addition, a protective layer is created that smoothes the hair cuticle. As a result, they become more obedient, smooth and lively. Makes combing hair much easier. Hair becomes much more manageable and resistant to negative influences.

This procedure takes approximately two hours.

Price for keratation: from 1500 rub.

4. Cryomassage

This procedure is aimed at stopping hair loss, stimulating hair growth by activating dormant hair follicles, and improving fat metabolism. This is a head massage using liquid nitrogen. Exposure to the substance awakens the follicles and affects metabolism, which promotes hair growth. Using point movements, distribute the substance over the head. The result is visible immediately. The patient feels a rush of warmth to the head. Hair loss slows down significantly; after a few weeks, the hair acquires a rich color. Cryomassage is best done by a cosmetologist, a course of 10-15 sessions two to three times a week.

The procedure takes 4 – 10 minutes.

Cost of service: from 800 rub.

5. Shielding

This is another hair health procedure that is sometimes confused with lamination. But this is not true, since lamination affects the outer structure of the hair, and shielding nourishes its inner side. Special components affect the hair structure from the inside. A special glossy-shiny film restores damaged strands, thereby increasing their diameter and volume. Shielding improves the structure and provides treatment for split ends of hair. The hair structure immediately becomes more resistant to external factors. The therapeutic effect is achieved due to the presence of components such as amino acids and soy protein, which moisturize and nourish the hair.

Causes of damage

Women carefully monitor the beauty of their hair.
They color them, curl them, straighten them, create all sorts of styling and intricate hairstyles. In this case, various styling products are used - gels, varnishes, mousses, and also devices such as a hair dryer, curling iron, iron, brushing are used. Frequent styling has a negative impact on the condition of the hair. In addition, they suffer from poor quality water, dry air, frost, and ultraviolet rays.

Sick and damaged curls look dull, weakened, and lacking volume. They become brittle, their ends begin to split and flake.

The strands lose their elasticity and smoothness, begin to fall out, and their natural shine disappears. Such hair needs treatment and restoration.

Some women periodically carry out various restorative and caring procedures in the salon, while others prefer to treat their hair exclusively with home methods.

Procedures that are time to forget

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is an injection of a cocktail of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients that promote active hair growth. At the same time, it is important to nourish the hair follicles, only then will you see a positive effect. The procedure is quite easily tolerated; on average, it is performed once a week, and the minimum course is 10 procedures.

When to use: dandruff, itchy scalp, graying at a young age, brittle hair, split ends, slight baldness.

Why you should refuse: in the case of inflammation, thinning and severe hair diseases, genetic forms of thinning and hormonal pathology, mesotherapy with vitamin cocktails will be powerless.

Darsonvalization

Darsonvalization is a method of physiotherapy based on the influence of alternating pulsed high-frequency current. To take advantage of the therapeutic effect of Darsonval, you don’t have to go to a salon: the procedure does not require any special skills; if you have the device, you can do it yourself.

When used: skin diseases, dandruff, increased production of sebum.

Why you should refuse: darsonvalization is an outdated method that does not in any way affect hair loss or growth. The maximum that it can do is improve the condition of the scalp with increased oiliness (seborrhea), the presence of pustules or folliculitis.

Cryomassage

Cryomassage is a physical procedure with a cooling effect, during which a cosmetologist lowers an applicator into liquid nitrogen and then performs acupressure on the scalp with quick movements.

When used: oily seborrhea, itching and impaired blood supply to the scalp, dandruff, weakening and hair loss due to a strict diet.

Why you should refuse: the method was actively used in trichology about 20 years ago, when there were no other treatment options for hair loss. Studies have shown that this method only leads to a short-term improvement in skin microcirculation, but this is not enough to speed up hair growth.

Ozone therapy

Ozone therapy is a method of introducing an ozone-oxygen mixture into the scalp, which is used to improve oxygen supply to tissues.

When used: stress hair loss, chronic forms of alopecia areata, as well as temporary forms of hair loss - after illnesses, seasonal hair loss or against the background of seborrheic dermatitis.

When to apply

Procedures to stimulate hair growth are an opportunity to simultaneously improve health and grow long, thick locks. To achieve the desired result, special devices, injections, and massage techniques are used.

It is recommended to use the procedures in the following cases:

• hair grows poorly;
• with vitamin deficiency and obvious signs of unhealthy hair (dullness, fragility and increased dryness of curls, split ends);
• there is severe hair loss;
• for the treatment of dandruff, dermatological diseases of the scalp.

There are two types of procedures:

• salon - more effective, performed only under the guidance of an experienced specialist;
• homemade - an affordable and harmless way to quickly grow hair, as a rule, does not require special skills. Another advantage of such actions is the minimum of contraindications.

Advice. To grow long and healthy curls, procedures alone are not enough. In this case, experts additionally focus on proper nutrition, the use of vitamin complexes, and the use of growth activators.

What to do instead

Laser therapy with fractional erbium laser

Fractional erbium laser therapy is one of the most effective methods of stimulating hair growth. By heating the scalp with a laser, its microcirculation improves, and dormant and idle follicles gradually become excited and begin to divide.

When used: androgenic, cicatricial and focal alopecia, especially with thinning hair in the frontoparietal zone. Find out more about the procedure

Plasma therapy

Plasma therapy, or PRP therapy, is a method of stimulating hair growth based on the introduction of one’s own plasma and growth factors into the scalp. Due to its high platelet content, plasma stimulates hair growth and promotes thickening. The procedure is technically complex, but a qualified specialist is able to perform it with maximum efficiency. Convenient for treatment - 3 procedures are carried out with an interval of 1 month.

When to use: weak, thin hair, thinning in men and women, including androgenetic alopecia.

Phototherapy of the head with red and infrared light

Phototherapy of the head refers to one of the variants of LLLT - low level light therapy, or light therapy using low-intensity wavelengths. The method is based on the stimulation of hair follicles with light energy and is quite effective, but to see the long-awaited effect, you will need 1-2 courses of 15 procedures.

When used: hair loss and thinning, sore scalp, scalp diseases.

Hair loss is caused by many factors, so the Center conducts extensive hair diagnostics - from biochemical analysis and phototrichogram to biopsy - and only then selects treatment. The procedures are carried out using the best European, American and Korean equipment, which allows you to successfully and safely combat hair loss, as well as carry out modern anti-age procedures. By the way, you can sign up for ultrasonic or atraumatic facial cleansing, biorevitalization, laser facial resurfacing, Dysport rejuvenation or chemical peeling.

For those who are generally concerned about health and want to know more about the capabilities and needs of their body, the Center offers a series of DNA tests.

Choice of funds: how not to buy a fake?

Baldness is insidious because it is difficult to detect at an early stage, because the gaps between the hairs and their thinning are almost invisible. For this reason, treatment often begins later than necessary, and results also take longer. Therapy is prescribed only after determining the cause of hair loss and includes the following methods:

1. Ointments and creams for external use. The products are applied directly to the areas of hair loss, so they go directly to the hair follicles. Most often, such drugs include corticosteroids - artificial analogues of hormones that are produced by the adrenal glands. Ointments with them help relieve irritation, itching, and slow down the growth of connective tissue.
2. Taking vitamins. In case of hair loss, vitamin A strengthens the roots, reduces stress affecting the strands - B1, soothes the skin - B2, makes them stable - B3, increases the stability of hair follicles - B5.
3. Taking sedatives. They relax the nervous system and are effective in stress-related alopecia.
4. Physiotherapeutic procedures such as cryomassage, Darsonval currents, ultraviolet irradiation or cosmetic: mesotherapy, ozone therapy, cryotherapy.
5. Folk, including masks, decoctions and ointments based on medicinal herbs that help strengthen or grow hair.

Today, baldness is no longer considered a purely male disease. Women began to suffer from it more often, because there are already about 2000 reasons that can cause the disease. Among them are stress, excessive styling, endocrine pathologies, an unbalanced diet, adverse environmental influences and cancerous tumors.

The most common types of hair loss in women are:

1. Diffuse, when hair falls out evenly over the entire surface of the head and the parting becomes wider.
2. Clustered, characterized by uneven hair loss, resulting in isolated reddened and itchy patches on the head.
3. Androgenic, which develops as a result of hormonal imbalance when the female body produces a lot of testosterone, which inhibits the growth of the bulbs.

Among the features of female pattern baldness, the following facts can be noted:

1. Hair loss in women is detected later than in men, and this process occurs more quickly during periods of hormonal changes.
2. Female alopecia does not affect the temples, does not move the hairline, and the weak point is the crown.
3. Baldness in women occurs selectively in combination with thinning hair, while in men it is more localized.

There are many products for treating hair loss, but not a single manufacturer provides 100% results. According to patient reviews, the drug Minoxidil for women turned out to be the most effective; it is applied to the lesions. The result of using the product is to stimulate the hair follicles, which leads to renewed growth and thickening of the shaft of the strands. The principle of action of the drug is to increase blood flow to dormant follicles. Various ointments or creams lead to the same result.

Therapy with tablets is prescribed even if there is no result from treating hair loss with local medications. If a large part of the head is already affected and the disease continues to progress, the patient is immediately prescribed either hormonal or strong sedatives, or other medications, depending on the nature of the disease. Hormones provide the fastest results, but these drugs, along with their benefits, can also cause harm to the body:

• weight gain;
• metabolic failures;
• skin rashes.

For androgenic alopecia, only treatment with antiandrogens brings effective results. Such drugs for hair loss in women are based on the action of inhibiting the effect of dihydrotestosterone on the follicles. Treatment with this method in medicine is nonspecific and has its drawbacks.

Contraceptives provide effective results by reducing the amount of androgens produced by the ovaries. Only here is an important nuance: you can only use those tablets in which the content of these hormones is low. Otherwise, such drugs, on the contrary, contribute to the development of baldness even in those who have not suffered from this disease.

In case of baldness, proper care of the scalp is also important. It is carried out using cosmetics from a pharmacy or a special store. It can be either just a medicated shampoo or a hair growth activator. Balms, sprays, oils, and serums are effective. Brands such as Golden Silk, Revivor, Vichy Dercos, Alerana and Fitoval enjoy positive reviews.

Folk remedies

The effect of traditional medicine recipes is only in the early stages of baldness or with concomitant drug treatment - with total, i.e. They will not help complete baldness. Their action is based on increased blood circulation in the scalp, which leads to the awakening of dormant hair follicles and hair growth.

Treatment for baldness should be started without delay. Otherwise, after 3–4 years the follicles will not be functional. There are plenty of medications to stimulate hair growth. Ointments, creams, tablets, drops, sprays and lotions are used to solve the problem of complete or partial baldness.

But during treatment, you need to take into account that many drugs are suitable only for women, so they will not help men with hair growth. Especially if baldness begins due to hormonal imbalance. Incorrect selection of medications will aggravate the problem in a man.

The best treatments for hair loss and slow growth are medications from specialized stores. Such cosmetics are more expensive, but more effective. The products saturate the scalp with useful substances, activate blood circulation and can even disguise small bald patches.

The innovative hair thickener consists of cotton fibers, the composition of which is similar to human hair. Fully quickly makes hair thicker, so it can eliminate small bald spots. The drug can easily withstand windy weather and downpours, but is easily washed out with regular shampoo.

Rogaine

For men, it is best to use a product containing 5% minoxidil. The most effective form is foam, which should be used twice a day. Rogaine saturates the follicles with oxygen and is used to treat hormone concentration disturbances.

Alerana

The main component of the spray is minoxidil, which increases blood circulation and stimulates hair follicles. Alerana is sold at the pharmacy and used twice a day. 7 pumps are needed for the entire scalp.

Kirkland

A lotion containing 5% minoxidil is recommended for male pattern baldness. 1 ml of the product should be applied morning and evening to the scalp for a month to a year. In the first two weeks, increased hair loss may begin, the follicle of which has already been destroyed.

Pills do not always help prevent slow hair growth, so men should use such medications. The spray contains aminophylline, L-Cartinine. It is sprayed onto dried roots every time after washing.

Kera-Nova

The mask contains extracts of medicinal herbs, red pepper, clay, amino acids, vitamins, keratin, panthenol. The product accelerates blood microcirculation and prevents hair loss. It is rubbed into wet roots for 15 minutes, then washed off.

Homemade masks made from onions, mustard, herbal infusions, and vegetable oils work effectively. They quickly reduce hair loss, strengthen hair, and stimulate growth. To prepare the product, take:

• 3 tbsp. l. onion juice;
• 1 tsp. honey;
• 1 tbsp. l. oils

Preparation of the product.

1. Mix the ingredients and rub into the roots.

Pros and cons of procedures

The use of various techniques to accelerate the growth rate of the hay has the following advantages :

• scalp becomes moisturized;
• hair follicles “wake up”;
• hair structure becomes smoother and more elastic;
• the hair becomes healthier , the loss of curls stops;
• hair becomes thick, strong, shiny.

So, modern techniques :

• “awaken” dormant bulbs;
• improve blood circulation;
• nourish both the scalp and hair, improving their structure and appearance.

Principle of operation

Ointment is the first medicine that our ancestors used for hair care. Their base is an oil structure and additional nutritional ingredients. Modern ointments add substances that help penetrate deeper into the skin and hair tissue, for example: nitroglycerin.

But even without it, the oil base forms a film, creating a thermal, “greenhouse” effect on the skin, which helps to act at the cellular level, and not just from the outside, unlike cream. Therefore, this form of cosmetic products is therapeutic and more effective.

In what cases are they used?

Since this is a dosage form, it is advisable to use it to solve such hair problems as:

• intense hair loss and thinning of the structure, increased fragility;
• the presence of wounds and ulcers on the surface of the head;
• disruption of the sebaceous glands, seborrhea;
• alopecia of all forms;
• Previous graying of hair.

It is worth considering that the ointment is a greasy base that requires time to carry out procedures and course application to obtain a positive result.

Contraindications

Ointments have a deeper effect than cream. But this is a local impact. Therefore, contraindications apply to the skin.

You should not use ointment if:

• there are allergic manifestations to the components;
• there is intolerance to the components;
• children's age, without consulting a doctor.

If itching, redness, or burning occurs, it is recommended to rinse the site of exposure to the drug and apply an antihistamine.

Home treatments

You can carry out hair growth stimulating procedures at home yourself. Simple methods will help speed up the growth of curls up to 1.5-1.7 cm per month, if done regularly and according to the rules.

Head massage should be done daily , each procedure should last 10-15 minutes .

They begin to massage the head from the forehead, gradually moving to the temples.

In this case, the movements should be quite confident, but you should not put excessive pressure on the skin.

The scalp is massaged as follows:

1. stroke from the top of the head down , pressing the fingers tightly;
2. press, pat, pinch the skin;
3. They end the massage with stroking , just as they started.

Using an electric comb helps stimulate hair growth . The device is used in the same way as a regular comb. The differences between most models and ordinary massage brushes are the presence of:

• compartments for oils and other active ingredients;
• ozone therapy functions;
• massage balls.

The advantage of the device is that it additionally cleanses the skin and improves the hair structure , “awakens” the follicles and strengthens the roots.

In addition, you can carry out the Darsonval salon procedure at home if you purchase a special device. You can accelerate hair growth on your own only if you use the device in a course of 15-20 procedures and without violating the rules for using the device.

Various procedures can speed up hair growth, the implementation of which can be entrusted to professionals working in the salon, or you can do them yourself. Whatever method you choose, it is important to further stimulate hair growth by applying masks, oils and other products.

How effective is treatment for androgenetic alopecia in men?

Anti-baldness medications should be prescribed by a trichologist who knows what is best in a particular situation. The dosage and duration of administration must be selected individually. The course depends on the stage of alopecia, the reasons for slower hair growth and the characteristics of the man’s body.

First you need to undergo tests to identify the cause of the disease. And only after that start using remedies for severe hair loss. But to achieve lasting results, even the most effective drug must be used systematically.

Finasteride

The medicine is indicated for androgenetic alopecia, and immediately after taking it, it blocks the action of dihydrotestosterone, which causes hair loss in men. To achieve sustainable results, you need to take one tablet a day for at least six months. The drug stops baldness, but does not promote new hair growth.

Minoxidil

The strands begin to grow rapidly 4 months after starting to use the product. 1 ml of 2% Minoxidil is rubbed into the scalp twice a day, and if there is no result, a 5% lotion is applied. After stopping the procedures, the man may again develop foci of alopecia and stop hair growth.

Esvitsin

The medicine is used to treat and prevent baldness. It contains biostimulants, useful microelements that stimulate hair growth in men. Esvicin is taken on an empty stomach, 1 tbsp. l. and rub into the roots daily. The duration of treatment depends on the degree of baldness and in men is about a year.

Generolon

The product includes minoxidil and is indicated for androgenetic alopecia, slowing hair growth in men. The spray must be used in courses, otherwise 3 months after discontinuation the strands will return to their previous state. Generalol is applied to the scalp twice a day.

Selentsin

This is a homeopathic medicine that reduces the number of dormant hair follicles, nourishes them and stimulates hair growth in men. Selecin is especially useful for diffuse alopecia. The drug is taken for 14 days, three times a day, one tablet at a time, with a break of a week.

Pantovigar

The complex consists of medical yeast, cystine, vitamins, treats damaged hair and stimulates its growth in men. Pantovigar promotes keratin synthesis, strand regeneration, and prevents dehydration. The product is taken depending on the state of health, the reasons for the slowdown in hair growth over a period of 3 to 6 months.

Propecia

The main component of the medicine for men is finasteride. It has a gentle effect, slows down hair loss, accelerates growth. The product should be taken once a day, one tablet for a year. A course of therapy will restore the hair follicle and completely eliminate baldness.

Vitrum Beauty

The product for hair growth for men contains vitamins B, D, C and other elements that stimulate collagen synthesis. Vitrum Beauty prevents hair loss, improves metabolism and improves immunity. Vitamins are taken twice a day with meals, one tablet.

Perfectile

An effective product that includes a complex of beneficial acids, zinc, iron, calcium and other substances that accelerate hair growth and prevent hair loss. The action of Perfectil is to stimulate blood circulation, which strengthens the bulbs. Vitamins for hair growth are taken once a day, one capsule after meals for a month.

Revalid

The tablets contain vitamin B, which prevents hair from strengthening and improves the functioning of the nervous system. Revalid's composition also contains wheat germ extract and keratin, which stimulates hair growth in men. Vitamins are taken three times a day, one capsule before meals, for at least two months.

Alopecia must be eliminated comprehensively. Treatment should be supplemented with mesotherapy, but this should only be done by a trichologist. If it was not possible to stimulate hair growth, and hair loss continues, transplantation will help.

This procedure is combined with hair loss remedies. Injections are made into the scalp with a drug that improves blood circulation and stimulates hair growth. It is necessary to complete a course of at least 10 procedures costing about 2 thousand rubles for each.

If a man is bald due to hormonal disorders, and medication cannot solve this problem, he should consider surgery. During transplantation, hair follicles are transferred from one site to another. The result is natural, the direction of growth of the strands is observed.

The procedures are performed on an outpatient basis. Local anesthesia and mild sedatives are used. There are several transplant methods:

• strip;
• non-surgical;
• combined.

The price depends on the city and the complexity of the operation. In Moscow the cost is from 55 thousand rubles. In some cases, the price can be three times higher.

Clinics offer seamless transplantation. Doctors use single or group follicles. The procedure is performed with a micro-instrument that does not leave even small incisions.

After manipulation for several days, dots are visible on the head. They form in places where the bulbs were removed and introduced. If baldness continues, the procedure can be performed several times.

ATTENTION: Drug treatment with hormonal hair growth agents is a serious intervention in the functioning of the entire body.

It should be started only in serious cases of alopecia, after passing all the necessary tests and the conclusion of a gynecologist or endocrinologist. Hormone-containing drugs have a number of contraindications and side effects; their uncontrolled use can lead to serious consequences.

Contraindications

Taking hormone-containing drugs is prohibited:

• in the presence of serious cardiovascular diseases;
• blood clotting disorders;
• serious liver diseases;
• varicose veins;
• in the presence of obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes;
• pregnancy and lactation;
• bleeding from the genital tract not caused by menstruation;
• when tumors of the genital organs and breasts (untreated or malignant) are detected.

IMPORTANT: Hormone-containing drugs increase the risk of thrombosis in women who smoke.

For less serious contraindications, such as uterine fibroids, epilepsy, superficial vein thrombosis, the decision to take or refuse hormonal medications is made by the doctor, depending on the health status of the individual patient.

On our website you can find a huge number of recipes for homemade masks for hair growth: with nicotinic acid, from coffee grounds, with vodka or cognac, with mustard and honey, with aloe, with gelatin, with ginger, with henna, with bread, with kefir, cinnamon, egg and onion.

Taking herbal medicines that act by analogy with sex hormones. To increase progesterone levels, plant hormones similar to female estrogens are used. They are found in some herbs and foods (soybeans, red grapes, legumes, nuts, hops, clover, alfalfa).

Many experts recommend maintaining a work and rest schedule, eliminating stressful situations, and adhering to proper nutrition and a balanced diet.

To normalize the production of thyroid hormones, it is necessary to eat seafood more often, such as dried fruits such as prunes and dates, currants, spinach and persimmons.

If there are disturbances in the production of estradiol in the ovaries, a woman should increase the amount of protein foods she consumes (meat, fish, eggs). In addition, it is necessary to exclude fiber, baked goods and all flour products from the diet (they remove estradiol).

To eliminate progesterone deficiency, you need to consume black currant berries, rose hips and all citrus fruits more often.

To stabilize melatonin production, it is recommended to eat more foods high in coarse fiber (fiber). It is also better to reduce or completely eliminate the consumption of caffeine-containing and alcoholic drinks, which have a negative effect on the body.

Did you know that some procedures can speed up the growth of strands, such as mesotherapy and scalp massage. It is also very important to comb properly.

Traditional methods and recipes can also eliminate hormonal imbalance.

The most commonly used herbal infusions are nettle leaves, sage, chamomile, calendula petals or St. John's wort.

It is necessary to keep under control the level of sex hormones that affect hair growth. They are responsible not only for the health and optimal growth of hair, but also affect all processes of the body.

To restore and maintain hormonal levels, you should lead a healthy lifestyle and get good sleep.

Androgenic

The problem of hair loss is associated in this case with a large amount of testosterone produced in a woman’s body.

This is a hormonal disorder that directly affects the condition of the hair follicles.

Therefore, first of all, you need to consult an endocrinologist.

The doctor will prescribe an examination and tests, after which the necessary drug will be selected that will prevent the negative effect of testosterone on the hair follicles.

Let's look at the main medications for hair loss for women:

1. Dutasteride, which helps slow down the active production of the hormone and will help stop hair loss.
2. Cimetidine has an antiandrogenic effect, beneficially affecting the hair structure.
3. Cyproterone helps suppress the production of hormones, which has a beneficial effect on hair growth.

The results of treatment for this type of alopecia are quite long-lasting. Taking medications can last up to several months. Treatment must be regular, and only in this case there will be a positive result.

IMPORTANT: Take these medications only as prescribed by your doctor.

Focal

This type of baldness is most often encountered by girls under 25 years of age. The problem of baldness occurs due to the active development of the immune system, resulting in damage to the hair follicles. Therefore, the doctor prescribes a type of medication that will help suppress immune surges.

This may include:

1. Prednisolone, which reduces immune aggression. The course of treatment is up to 2 months.
2. Betamethasone is an ointment that must be rubbed into the scalp for 2 months.
3. Beclomethasone is used as an injection, injecting the solution directly into the skin where the bald area is located.
