A Solution to Female Pattern Hair Loss

About 20% of women – over 30 million Americans – are affected by a substantial thinning of hair caused by Female Pattern Hair Loss (Androgenetic Alopecia). It can start anytime after puberty and progresses with each decade of aging. Among other less common hair loss disorders, this is the most treatable form of hair loss using non-medical and medical solutions.

Michael L. Reed, MD, board-certified dermatologist and Associate Professor of Clinical Dermatology at New York University Medical Center is the author of “Women’s Hair Loss: The Hidden Epidemic.” He has decades of experience focused specifically on the medical and surgical treatment of hair and scalp disorders. We are pleased to welcome Dr. Reed to the NuBody Concepts team to treat female hair loss in the Nashville area. (Male patients: please visit our Hair Doctor website.)

What can I expect?

The majority of hair loss can be grouped into three conditions: Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss (hereditary); Telogen Effluvium (physiologic shedding), which is most often temporary and can be caused by pregnancy, illness, or a systemic disorder such as thyroid imbalance; and Alopecia Areata, which typically has allergic causes.

While FUE hair transplants are an excellent option to reverse hair loss in men, treating women is often less straightforward as female hair tends to thin out in more diffuse patterns. While some women can be good surgical candidates if they have an adequate donor site, we believe that most women experiencing hair loss can most benefit from a combination of non-medical and medical hair loss treatments.

Get started with a scalp exam by Dr. Reed at NuBody Concepts Nashville, followed by a comprehensive consultation to determine treatment options.

Each patient is unique. What your treatment will look like is determined by you and the doctor who you will meet with in a personal consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

While women can have hair transplants like men, there are some challenges not faced by men. Female hair loss tends to be less concentrated and more diffuse, and women typically don’t have the option of having their donor area shaved, making the extraction of donor hair more difficult. In addition, hormone imbalances can affect results. These are the reasons why we like to form a more comprehensive treatment plan for female hair loss patients centered around lifestyle and medical options for best results.

There are three main approaches for the treatment of female hair loss: non-medical, medical, and surgical. NuBody Concepts board-certified dermatologist Dr. Michael Reed has had incredible success with a combination of medical treatments of female hair loss. He has helped give new hope to numerous women who faced devastating hair loss without a proper diagnosis.

It’s extremely difficult to put a timeline on female hair loss treatments. The first step is to form a diagnosis that establishes the hair loss cause and formulate a treatment plan, which is often a combination of various medical approaches. We recommend a treatment period of 1 year with one follow-up visit every quarter.
