Hair Restoration Q & A

What is hair restoration?

Hair restoration seeks to stop hair loss and improve the health of your hair to replace and regrow hair that has been lost. Scheduling your consultation at Imber Medical is the first step to receiving tailored, science-based treatments to restore your hair’s beauty.

Who can benefit from hair restoration?

Hair loss can occur due to a variety of factors, including:


Genetics

If male or female pattern baldness is common in your family, you can address it or even get an early start to prevent hair loss.


Medical conditions

Conditions like thyroid disorders, alopecia areata, or autoimmune diseases can contribute to thinning hair.


Hormonal changes

Hormonal imbalances or fluctuations due to pregnancy, menopause, or declining testosterone levels can decrease the thickness and quality of hair.


Stress

In the frantic pace of modern life, excessive stress seems like a rite of passage, but it can lead to telogen effluvium. This condition puts your hair follicles in the resting stage and causes strands to fall out early.


Medications

Specific medications may have hair loss as a side effect. These include antidepressants and chemotherapy medications.

What treatments promote hair restoration?

Imber Medical employs the most effective treatments and techniques to get straight to work on thickening your hair and healing your scalp. The practice’s gold-star offerings include platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and the Alma® TED device.


PRP

PRP has generated a lot of buzz for healing and rejuvenating capabilities, including its ability to impact hair growth. Because it’s naturally derived from your own body, you can rest easy knowing that you won’t suffer any side effects from treatment. PRP treatments have many benefits, including:

  • Improved hair health
  • Hair follicle stimulation
  • Less inflammation
  • Minimal downtime

To acquire the PRP, the team extracts a small sample of blood, separates the platelets, and carefully injects them into your scalp. Your blood’s natural growth factors, concentrated in the platelets, can get to work reducing inflammation and promoting stronger, healthier hair.


Alma TED

This patented device can produce a noticeable reduction in hair shedding within weeks after only one treatment. TED sessions are quick and convenient, with the added bonus of being comfortable and trauma-free, unlike some scalp treatments.

You don’t have to say goodbye to the beauty and opportunities for self-expression that healthy hair provides. Reach out to the Imber Medical office to schedule your hair restoration consultation by phone or online today.
