Who this page is for
Hair loss has many causes — androgenetic thinning, stress shedding, medical conditions, nutritional gaps — and they need different treatment. Diagnosis comes first; treatment second.
Noticing gradual thinning
A widening part, a receding hairline, more scalp showing under bright light — the classic early pattern where intervention works best.
Sudden or patchy shedding
Handfuls in the shower or distinct patches need medical assessment — some causes are treatable conditions, not cosmetic problems.
Considering PRP for hair
You have read about PRP hair treatment and want an honest view of the evidence, whether your follicles can still respond, and what a protocol involves.
Not ready for a hair transplant
You are exploring non-surgical options first — or want to know honestly whether your thinning still has non-surgical answers.
— What this involves
How we approach hair loss
The single most important step is the diagnosis. Androgenetic (pattern) hair loss, telogen effluvium (stress shedding), alopecia areata, thyroid issues, and iron deficiency all thin your hair — and each needs a different response. Your consultation starts with a scalp examination and history; where indicated, blood tests rule out medical drivers before any aesthetic treatment is discussed.
For androgenetic thinning — the most common cause — the evidence-backed toolkit includes medical therapy and PRP (platelet-rich plasma). PRP concentrates growth factors from your own blood and injects them into the scalp to support follicle health. The honest caveat: PRP works meaningfully for early thinning where follicles are still alive; it cannot resurrect follicles that are long gone. Your doctor will tell you which side of that line you are on.
A typical PRP hair protocol involves a starter series of sessions spaced about a month apart, then maintenance. Expect the process to take months — hair grows slowly, and anyone promising visible regrowth in weeks is selling you something. We track progress with photographs so change is measured, not imagined.
What determines the cost? The treatment pathway your diagnosis points to, the number of PRP sessions in your protocol, and any adjunct therapy. We do not publish prices — you receive a personalised, written plan and quote after your scalp assessment. If a transplant is genuinely your best option, we will tell you that honestly instead of selling you sessions.

Common questions
For early androgenetic thinning with living follicles, clinical studies support meaningful improvement in hair density for many patients — with maintenance sessions needed to hold the result. For long-bald areas, PRP cannot revive dead follicles, and you deserve to hear that before spending money. Your doctor examines your scalp and tells you honestly which situation applies to you.
We do not publish prices because the plan depends entirely on your diagnosis — medical therapy, a PRP protocol, or a combination. After your scalp assessment you receive a personalised, written plan and quote, with no obligation to proceed.
Hair works on slow cycles. Reduced shedding is often the first change, followed by visible density improvement over three to six months. We document progress with standardised photos so you can see real change rather than guessing in the mirror. Anyone promising regrowth in weeks is overpromising.
Yes. Female-pattern thinning and post-partum or stress-related shedding are common and treatable, and the diagnostic step matters even more for women because medical causes (thyroid, iron) are more frequent. The same diagnosis-first approach applies.
A transplant relocates follicles; it does not stop ongoing thinning — which is why many transplant patients still need medical therapy afterwards. For early-to-moderate thinning, non-surgical treatment often makes sense first or alongside. If your pattern genuinely calls for a transplant, we will tell you that honestly at consultation.
