Women’s Hair Loss — The Causes
At Invisible Hair, we offer a unique type of hair restoration in San Diego to women who have lost some or all of their hair for any of the common reasons. Traditional forms of hair replacement do not provide the natural appearance and feel of real hair like the Invisible Hair solutions that we have available. There are numerous causes that lead clients to us for hair restoration in San Diego, including:
Alopecia Areata: Autoimmune disease where the body’s own immune system attacks the hair follicles. “In a clinical setting, I tell patients with autoimmune disease not to eat large amounts of food or supplements that have even mild immunity-enhancing properties, such as Echinacea. Stimulating the immune system in these patients only enhances its ability to attack the body.” Tony Longo, R.D., clinical dietitian and nutritionist for the Providence Hospital system, Portland, Oregon. Sadly, there are no known medical solutions for this condition.
Systemic or local disease: Have a hormone panel taken; see a dermatologist and an endocrinologist. Get as many tests as possible and find out exactly what’s going on.
Trichotillamania: Self-inflicted excessive plucking of the eyebrows, eyelashes and hair, stress being the biggest contributing cause. No cure; therapy, Paxil, life coaching, acupuncture, and grafted non–surgical hair systems are common treatments.
Physical trauma: Chemical, thermal, electrical burns, or an auto accident.
Medical or surgical treatments: Chemotherapy, radiation, removal of brain tumors.
Congenital hair loss: Female heredity hair loss — it’s usually permanent, influenced by levels of sex hormones.
