Hair Loss
A normal scalp hair count is approximately 100,000 strands, with a daily loss of around 100 strands considered normal. However, if hair loss exceeds the rate of new hair growth, the scalp may become visible and the hair may start to look sparse.
The most common cause of hair loss in both males and females is hereditary hair loss, also known as male or female pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia), which affects more than 90% of males and 40% of females.
Other common causes of hair loss include stress, chronic or acute illness, hormonal changes, post-pregnancy, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, physical injury, infections, collagen diseases, and congenital defects. Regular blow-drys, hair colouring, treatments such as Keratin, straightening, and perms can also deplete natural oils, leaving hair dry, brittle, and lacking luster, requiring treatment to restore its health.
At Athena, anti-hair loss treatments are based on a variety of combinations of oral and topical medications, along with minimally invasive solutions. Treatment plans are tailored to each individual's hair loss, its cause, and extent. It is important to note that these treatments take time to show results, so it is advisable to begin treatment at the first signs of hair loss in order to address the issue promptly.
