Advanced Hair Loss Treatment at Park Avenue Dermatology & Non-Surgical Rejuvenation Center
At the Park Avenue Dermatology & Non-Surgical Rejuvenation Center, located at 629 Park Avenue, NYC, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of hair loss in both men and women. Led by Dr. Gary Jayne Rothfeld, a leading authority in hair and scalp health, our trichology approach offers comprehensive clinical consultations, advanced treatments, and the best options for everyday hair care.
Expert Care for Hair and Scalp Issues
Our state-of-the-art facility is dedicated to treating various hair and scalp conditions, including hair loss, baldness, scalp scaling, itching, hair breakage, dryness, and oiliness. Hair health can be a sensitive indicator of imbalances in the body, with factors such as poor nutrition, medical or genetic issues, medication, and stress adversely affecting hair and scalp health.
During your consultation, we will conduct a thorough medical history and may request a blood test to identify the root cause of your hair or scalp issue. This detailed approach enables us to provide personalized and effective treatment plans.
Understanding Female Hair Loss
Hair loss is commonly associated with men, but women make up 40 percent of hair loss sufferers. The normal hair growth cycle involves losing up to 100 hairs per day. Excessive hair loss or prominent scalp areas can be a sign of underlying issues.
Types and Causes of Female Hair Loss
- Androgenic Alopecia: The most common type, this inherited condition causes hair follicles to stop producing new hairs. Women experience overall thinning of the scalp rather than a receding hairline.
- Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune disorder that attacks hair follicles, inhibiting hair growth.
- Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy, menopause, or hypothyroidism can trigger hair loss.
- Traction Alopecia: Caused by constant pulling from hairstyles like tight ponytails or cornrows.
- Stress and Medications: Major surgery, chemotherapy, or blood thinners can lead to hair loss.
- Fungal Infections: Such as tinea capitis.
- Chronic Illnesses: Conditions like diabetes or lupus.
Effective Treatments for Female Hair Loss
While most hair loss is not life-threatening, its emotional impact can be significant. Treatment depends on the underlying cause:
- Medication-Induced Hair Loss: Adjusting medications or treating underlying conditions.
- Androgenic Alopecia: Topical minoxidil (Rogaine) can stimulate hair growth and slow hair loss. Hair transplant surgery using Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation and Follicular Unit Extraction techniques offers natural and dense results.
Our center, the Rothfeld Hair Loss Treatment Center, focuses on medical hair loss treatment, hair transplant surgery, and hair loss prevention. Dr. Gary Rothfeld, a leading hair loss doctor and transplant surgeon, ensures top-quality services and patient satisfaction.
Preventing Hair Loss
While androgenic alopecia cannot be entirely prevented, avoiding hairstyles that pull on the hair, hot oil treatments, or perms can minimize further hair loss.
Personalized Care
At the Female Hair Loss and Trichology NYC Treatment Center, Dr. Gary Rothfeld sees every patient personally. With a deep commitment to individualized care, he does not employ physician assistants or substitutes. A significant percentage of dermatological conditions are diagnosed through detailed medical histories and examinations, underscoring the importance of patient-doctor interaction.
