Introduction to Hair Loss
Most hair fall or hair loss conditions are largely caused by internal reasons. When one is experiencing a hair fall/loss problem, the first, most important step to take is to find out WHY or, the specific cause of the problem.
Once the cause has been ascertained, the condition can usually then be treated and, therefore, improved.
It is the specialised training and ongoing experience that allows a trichologist to recognise the symptoms, the clinical features and the cause of a complaint. Deep, stimulative treatment can then be offered together with the necessary back up which may include blood tests, dietary information, and products for home help etc.
The word ALOPECIA means baldness and is used as a prefix to name various hair fall complaints. Most problems concerning hair fall or a loss of hair relate to deficiencies or imbalances in the blood as well as specific blood conditions or, conditions of our system that affect the blood.
One must also consider the nervous system, prescribed medication, anaesthetics, nutrition, pregnancy, contraception etc.
In fact, almost anything that alters the general physical and mental well being can contribute to hair fall. This is why a thorough consultation with an experienced trichologist is so important.
