Ep 73: Demystifying Hair Loss Treatments- What Works and What Doesn't

This week's podcast episode is a masterclass sponsored by L'Oreal Paris, the beauty giant behind the latest Full Resist Anti-Hair Fall range. Backed by evidence-based ingredients researched by hair scientists, this range of hair care specifically targets ongoing cell processes involved in hair loss. I discuss Aminexil®, the star patented ingredient by L'Oreal Paris that has been proven to help prevent thickening of collagen around the hair follicles- a phenomenon known as hair miniaturization, that occurs in genetic-type hair loss. We start with the commonest causes of hair fall seen in a dermatologist practice. Including male and female pattern hair loss, stress-related hair fall such as telogen effluvium, as well as rarer causes due to auto-immune disease such as alopecia areata. Underlying medical conditions such as nutritional deficiencies as well as thyroid disease can also contribute to hair fall. Tune in to this week's episode to learn all about the science of beautiful hair. Join me as we discover how to harness the latest scientific discoveries to achieve a healthy scalp and luscious hair.
