Before looking for a solution by ourselves to prevent or avoid hair loss, we must visit a hair specialist in order to know the causes of alopecia, to know what deficiencies and needs the patient's scalp has.
Hair loss is accompanied by resignation, insecurity and low self-esteem of the sufferer, especially if it is hereditary. Some people begin to lose hair even before the age of 30 and think that nothing can be done.
There are many factors that can favor androgenic alopecia (the main cause of alopecia in men).
If you want to know how to prevent hair loss in women and men, you have to start with the basics:
Diet and lifestyle.
Healthy lifestyle, good hydration and foods rich in vitamins, minerals and nutrients that favor the activity of the hair follicle.
On the other hand, physical activity is the best complement to a balanced lifestyle.
A good diet and a healthy lifestyle are very important, both to prevent alopecia and to favor the hair cycle (when the hair falls out it is regenerated by new hair, if this does not happen, the patient will develop a progressive alopecia).
From Clínica de Freitas we want to transmit the knowledge of our trichologists so that they can be applied in the most common daily habits.
We can apply these recommendations and simple habits on a daily basis:
Recommendations:
These nutrients play a vital role in hair growth and strength, so a diet enriched with animal foods, fish, dairy products and eggs can help prevent hair loss.
Natural amino acids play a vital role in hair growth and strength, so a diet enriched in amino acids can help prevent hair loss.
Everyday habits that help prevent hair loss:
Lack of vitamin D can transform the hair making it weaker and more brittle. It is also advisable to consume foods rich in vitamin D.
Hair treatments help to strengthen the hair follicle, improve scalp circulation, stimulate the growth of new hair, improve thickness and density giving more quality to the capillaries.
All these benefits help to slow down and prevent hair loss.
Before starting an anti-hair loss treatment, we must study the case and analyze with the digital dermatoscope the state of the scalp to detect the causes of hair loss.
Once the causes have been detected, the trichologist will create an action plan where the patient will begin hair therapy for alopecia. Studying the case and analyzing it helps us to prescribe the most effective treatment.
Best treatments that help prevent hair loss.
The treatment includes nutritional and specialized solutions such as vitamins, amino acids, trace elements, 5-alpha reductase enzyme inhibitors and vasodilator substances.
In this way the hair follicle will be preserved, stimulated and gradually increase the density of your hair. It is an effective hair therapy that helps prevent hair loss in women and men.
It consists of using a low frequency laser that stimulates hair growth.
Phototherapy increases blood flow and oxygen, which generates more cell proliferation at the root of your hair. It stimulates the metabolism of the scalp by increasing keratin production.
It uses the patient's own blood plasma that is rich in growth factors, its application is through painless micro injections in the scalp, to regenerate the hair and improve the production of new hair.
Improves the oxygenation of the hair follicles through the application of pure ozone on the scalp.
Helps to lengthen the hair growth phase. Minoxidil is a vasodilator that improves the reception and intake of nutrients to the hair follicle. The result is an increase in hair density and thickness.
Aimed at improving and correcting scalp problems through hair products, it helps to restore the normal functioning of the hair follicles.
It should be noted that, before prescribing a treatment to help prevent hair loss, we will perform a hair analysis to diagnose exactly what the problem is.
