Recent events have shown the toll hair loss can have on women, not only on a physical level but emotionally as well. But female hair loss can be treated with a variety of methods. Ideally, it can be detected and managed early on, before it progresses to significant levels, so that more drastic and invasive surgical procedures won’t be necessary. At Yaker Hair Restoration + Med Spa in Plano, Texas, we offer a variety of non-invasive medical treatments for female hair loss.

Stop Hair Loss with Dr. Joseph Yaker’s Specially Compounded Topical Finasteride + Minoxidil, HÄR Lab No. 2

Minoxidil was first used as a high-blood pressure treatment. However, doctors saw that patients using it had more hair growth. This led to its use as a hair loss remedy.

If regularly applied, Minoxidil can slow down hair loss. It helps patients retain more of their present hair. It won’t regrow hair or cover bald areas. However, habitual users of Minoxidil tend to lose less hair than those not treating their hair loss. Women can also use this medication against hair loss.

Minoxidil’s effect comes from expanding the blood vessels. It nourishes the hair follicles in the scalp. This counters the follicle-shrinking effects of DHT. Minoxidil won’t entirely halt hair loss, though. Hair growth will still reduce but at a slower pace. You can couple Minoxidil with other treatments for the best fight against hair loss

Precision PRP Therapy Can Revitalize Hair Follicles

The use of platelet-rich plasma, also termed PRP, is gaining attention as a non-surgical method for hair loss reversal. It has displayed exceptional results in slowing, ceasing, and, in some instances, reversing balding. Furthermore, PRP has shown optimistic effects on patients suffering from alopecia areata and decreased eyebrow hair volume.

Plano, Texas, hair transplant surgeon Dr. Joseph Yaker, is one of only a small handful of hair restoration surgeons to offer Placenta-Derived Extracellular Matrix Therapy. He includes this powerful blend of growth factors and bioactive proteins to help strengthen the function of your hair, leading to longer, thicker, healthier hair.

Dr. Yaker’s bespoke Precision PRP™ system is a pioneer in the country. It uses a unique cell analysis software that checks patient platelet levels on the spot. This software figures out and confirms a patient-specific PRP treatment dose. It bases the calculation on your platelet counts and blood volume. The result is consistently high PRP concentrations. Determining platelet and, hence, the PRP levels helps achieve steady results. This can lead to more hair thickening, especially if your hair is thinning.
