Hair Loss Treatment For Women
Choosing the best hair loss treatment for women in Australia isn’t always easy. With so many products online claiming to stop hair loss and boost hair regrowth for men, it’s hard to know what really works. The truth is, many women waste time and money on female hair loss products that don’t deliver – and by the time they realise it, their hair has thinned even more. Getting the right treatment early can make all the difference.
This ‘Hair Loss Treatment For Women’ section is aimed to provide you with everything you need to know about hair regrowth for women – from medications, to regenerative therapies and non-pharmaceutical products that can be used together to promote extra hair regrowth results.
Key Hair Loss Treatments For Female Hair Loss
Minoxidil
Minoxidil is one medication approved for the treatment of female hair loss and is effective for both men and women. It is medically proven for androgenetic alopecia in women (female pattern hair loss) but is also known to be effective for various other hair loss conditions. Minoxidil is a topical liquid that can be applied once or twice a day depending on the formulation prescribed for female hair loss treatment in Australia. A common side effect of “off-the-shelf” topical Minoxidil may include contact dermatitis (redness and peeling of the skin). Minoxidil is also available in oral form – there are various studies showing that low-dose oral minoxidil is effective in the treatment of female pattern hair loss. For more information on hair growth treatment for women and what is available from Bioscor, please contact us.
Other Medications
Unfortunately Finasteride, the second approved medication for male pattern hair loss, is not indicated to treat female pattern hair loss (FPHL). However, Spironolactone is a commonly prescribed off-label as a female hair loss treatment given its anti androgen effects. Spironolactone inhibits androgen production and acts as an androgen antagonist by competitively blocking androgen receptors. Multiple studies have seen positive results for hair regrowth in females. It is also known to treat hirsutism (excessive hair growth in women). However, as with all medications, there may be side effects.

Regenerative Therapy
While traditional medical therapies for hair loss can be effective for many, regenerative treatments like PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin) and Exosomes offer a more natural, innovative approach. These therapies work by tapping into the body’s innate regenerative abilities, using bioactive materials such as growth factors and proteins to support hair follicle health and stimulate growth. With a focus on enhancing the body’s own healing processes, regenerative treatments provide an exciting alternative for those seeking a non-invasive, biologically driven solution to hair restoration.
Platelet-Rich Fibrin
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a cutting-edge treatment in the field of regenerative medicine, offering new hope for those experiencing hair loss. This autologous therapy utilises the patient’s own blood to harvest a rich blend of growth factors and cytokines, which are then meticulously reintroduced into the scalp. PRF leverages the body’s natural healing processes to stimulate hair follicle regeneration and improve hair density, thickness, and overall health. Click here for more information.
Exosomes Hair Treatment
Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles secrete by various cell types. These tiny structures play a pivotal role in cell-to-cell communication. They contain bioactive molecules like proteins, lipids and genetic material, which can influence the behaviour of recipient cells. In aesthetic medicine, exosomes are harnessed for their regenerative properties, making them a promising tool for skin and hair rejuvenation. These vesicles can be loaded with specific growth factors, cytokines, and proteins tailored for hair growth. When reintroduced into the scalp, they deliver their payload to recipient cells, effectively stimulating and enhancing hair growth. Click here for more information.

Support Products
It is vital to maintain a healthy scalp in order to maximise healthy hair regrowth. We also carry support products in conjunction with prescribed medications and treatments. Our approach is what makes us one of the best in female hair loss treatment in Australia. The hair loss experts at Bioscor recommend the following products and treatments to assist the efficacy of female hair loss treatments and medications.
AO Scalp Cleansing Shampoo
Scalp buildup can hinder healthy hair growth if left untreated. Dead skin cells, sebum (oil) and sweat can clog your hair follicle, which can hinder healthy hair growth. Our specially-formulated shampoo is designed to promote a healthy scalp by removing build-up from excess sebum production, dead skin cells and environmental debris. Its active ingredients help stop and prevent dandruff by slowing the proliferation of skin cells. It also reduces inflammation, itching and scaling caused by skin conditions.
AO Multi Vitamin Forte
Our essential supplement takes a multi-function approach to improving your hair growth, by providing you the following:
- Essential Vitamins & Minerals for healthier roots and follicles, stronger and thicker hair, as well as preventing premature greying of the hair. Also contributes to healthy skin and nails.
- Multi-Source Natural Extracts shown to fight hair loss from within, by inhibiting the formation and effect of Dihydrotestosterone, which shrinks hair follicles; improving cerebral blood flow for optimal delivery of nutrients to the scalp for hair health; and encouraging hair cell proliferation and cycle normalisation.
AO Booster
AO Booster serum contains the active ingredient Retinol – when used in conjunction with minoxidil, it has been shown to increase the rate of hair growth, prolong the anagen phase of the hair cycle, and produce denser hair regrowth. It achieves this effect by increasing the percutaneous absorption of minoxidil, which in turn enhances the response of hair loss to minoxidil.
