Your Ultimate Guide to Hair Loss Solutions

We often say that hair defines our face and that it is our “crowning glory”. We groom it every day, we use hundreds of products including shampoos, conditioners, treatments, dyes, sun protection sprays, styling foams, curlers, straighteners and all kinds of serums. And we are moaning whenever we wake up to a “bad hair day”!

But what happens when we start losing our hair? Its psychological impact can be devastating for both men and women as it results in a “change in self-esteem and is associated with images of reduced worth” (Rushton et al. 2002: 17). Our hair also needs vitamins, minerals and other nutrients to be strong, smooth and healthy, but sometimes all that isn’t enough because the problem is a little more serious. No need to panic or feel depressed because regardless of what causes it, there are so many great ways to improve the look of your hair and help promote growth. How do you find a treatment that suits you? Is there a special clinic nearby?

The Real Causes Behind Hair Loss

Did you know that the human scalp has approximately 100,000 hairs and that we normally shed 50 to 100 of them every day? But what causes excessive hair loss and what can we do about it? The most common causes include androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata, traumatic alopecia and telogen effluvium (Patel, 2015: 13).

Androgenic alopecia is also known as genetic hair loss and it is a disorder mediated by dihydrotestosterone (Adil, 2017: 136). When testosterone is converted by an enzyme (5-alpha reductase) it turns into an even more potent hormone known as dihydrotestosterone (DHT) which kick starts the process of follicular miniaturisation in which the follicle starts to weaken.

Alopecia Areata is a dermatologic condition that manifests in bald patches on the scalp, face or body which sometimes manifests in severe forms such as alopecia totalis – total loss of hair on the scalp) or alopecia universalis – complete loss of hair on the scalp and body (Islam et al. 2015: 81). It is believed to be caused the  immune system and triggered by psychological problems or stress.

Telogen effluvium is a condition which can be caused by a major illness, childbirth, emotional stress, rapid weight loss or a surgery. Other common causes include nutritional deficiencies, various fungal infections, hormonal dysfunction, lack of vitamins or minerals in the body, pulling of the hair and even a bad shampoo.


At Bioscor, our doctors have had the opportunity to assist many clients suffering from these conditions. On your first consultation, our experts will have your condition assessed to understand the causes of your hair loss and then tailor a treatment plan especially for you.


Causes of Hair Loss in Women: Medical Reasons and More

Experts say that unlike men, women don’t often suffer from a patterned hair loss. If they do, they usually experience “diffuse thinning of the entire scalp” and baldness is a very rare phenomenon (less than 5 % of women!). However, females are prone to hormonal disorders caused by pregnancy and childbirth or polycystic ovarian syndrome. There is even a disorder called postmenopausal alopecia which is sometimes accompanied by hypertension and osteoarthritis (Goldberg, 2017). Other medical reasons include thyroid disease, anaemia, autoimmune conditions, acute stress or trauma and serious health conditions such as cancer or kidney or liver failure.

But sometimes the cause can be a constant obsession with good looks! Women are using a lot of styling products, so the culprit can be a new shampoo, a curling iron, straightener, a hair spray or a salon nearby. Keep in mind that even a very tight bun or a ponytail can cause damage. Not to mention severe diets which cause rapid and sudden changes in weight and poor nutrition in women! Your hair especially needs proteins which is why you should never cut them out completely.

Causes of Hair Loss in Men

We all know that most men lose hair gradually as it is a part of the ageing process. Androgenic alopecia is the most common reason. It is also known as genetic hair loss and even though it can affect both men and women of various ages, this condition is more common with men. For some it is obvious, but for others, hair loss is barely visible. Androgenic alopecia is characterised by a specific pattern: on the crown, in the temple or over the mid-frontal scalp.

There are various patterns of baldness and when the condition is really severe or when it occurs at a young age, it can cause distress and low self-esteem. But we have good news! Bioscor clinic can treat all forms of non-scarring alopecia! Additionally, it can also help you battle problems caused by other factors such as:

  • Telogen effluvium
  • Alopecia areata
  • Nutritional deficiency
  • Bacterial and fungal infections
  • Hormonal disorder
  • Pressure and traction alopecia
  • Adverse drug reaction

Step by Step Guide to Hair Loss Treatment and Solutions

1.  Establish Causes

Before you even start with any treatment, you should determine the causes of your problem. Go to a nearby clinic or consult experts who will help you assess what caused hair loss. You will need to do a physical examination and a blood test in order to properly understand the underlying reason.

2.  Choose a Treatment

After your first consultation with experts, you can choose a treatment, be it a specific therapy which can only be done at a clinic or a product which you can use at home such as a shampoo, serum or any other remedy.

3.  Clean the Scalp

Before you apply a treatment to your tresses, you should remove any dirt or excess sebum. Pick a shampoo that thoroughly cleanses your scalp and opens up your pores to allow optimal absorption of the product into the delicate hair follicles.

4.  Apply the Product

The product that stimulates follicular activity can then be put into the pores. A massage and laser diode should be used to stimulate blood circulation which will bring oxygen and nutrients into the scalp to promote healthy hair growth.

5.  Assess Results

For most treatments, beneficial results should be noticeable within a couple of months. The type of treatment and its duration depends on the causes of hair loss. And while many conditions don’t require repeated treatments, androgenic alopecia which usually affects men normally requires ongoing maintenance.

Hair Care Tips and The Best Shampoos

If you have thin hair or are battling hair loss, you need to take extra care! Our key tips: avoid using too much styling product, let it air-dry, eat healthy and nutritious food, keep it warm during winter months, protect it from the sun in the summer and use only quality products prescribed to you by qualified experts or a renowned clinic near you.

When it comes to choosing a shampoo, you should be picky. Don’t just go to the first store near you, but make an effort to find quality products. The best shampoos are formulated to promote hair growth and contain vitamins which will prevent your locks from being brittle and easily breakable. A good shampoo will also be able to remove any impurities which can clog your pores.

Organic shampoo is a good alternative to any other product that contains chemicals and one of the current favourites in the Australian market is Pura D’or Original Gold Label Anti Thinning Shampoo. Nioxin System 3 cleanser amplifies hair texture, Kerastase Bain Prevention shampoo is designed for hair loss prevention, while Klorane Quinine shampoo is formulated for thinning hair. If you want a more powerful impact, you can use Bioscor daily hair care products. They remove excess sebum and dead skin cells and are designed to be used in combination with Bioscor’s other products to battle hair loss and boost the growth process.

Top Vitamins for Hair Loss & Thinning Hair

But it isn’t enough to treat your hair with only a good shampoo and conditioner. You also need to nourish it from within and feed it with proteins, vitamins and minerals. Make sure to consume all the nutrients your hair needs to be strong and healthy! Vitamins are incredibly important and the first one on your list should be Vitamin C because it is an antioxidant and fights against free radicals. The second one is Vitamin E which is commonly believed to boost hair growth, B-complex Vitamins which are great for skin and hair, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, Zinc and Iodine are good too. However, before you decide to take any food supplements, make sure to talk to your doctor because it can be dangerous to consume too many vitamins and minerals or mix them with certain medicines.

How Does It Work?

Our Results

Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia usually achieve visible results within the first 3-4 months of treatment. The process of follicular miniaturisation occurs over the course of many years, thus rejuvenation of the follicles is not a quick process. How quickly you attain results will depend on a few factors such as age, severity, genetic predisposition to hair loss, treatment dosage, scalp condition and other external factors. Generally speaking, the earlier treatment is begun, the faster and more effective the results are.
