Hair Loss & Thinning

Hair loss can stem from genetics, hormonal shifts, stress, or conditions like alopecia — and over time, weakened follicles lead to thinning, a receding hairline, or bald patches. Because causes vary, the right starting point depends on what's actually driving your hair loss.

Hair Loss & Thinning
How It Develops

Understanding the cause

Follicle Miniaturization

Hormonal and genetic factors can gradually shrink hair follicles, producing thinner, shorter hairs with each growth cycle.

Scalp Health & Circulation

Poor scalp circulation and product buildup can further stress follicles that are already weakened.

A Regenerative Approach

Treatments like PRP use your own growth factors to stimulate follicle activity and support a healthier growth cycle.

Did You Know?

Facts about Hair Loss & Thinning

It's Not Always Genetic

Stress, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions can all trigger or worsen hair thinning independent of family history.

Earlier Treatment Tends to Work Better

Follicles that have been dormant longer are generally harder to stimulate — starting treatment sooner tends to preserve more of what's there.

Scalp Health Matters

A healthy, well-circulated scalp environment supports better results from any hair restoration treatment.

Results Build Gradually

Hair restoration works with your natural growth cycle, so visible improvement takes months, not weeks.

How many PRP sessions will I need?

Will this work for all types of hair loss?

Confirm with clinicians — response varies by cause (genetic, hormonal, stress-related, or alopecia), so an assessment helps set realistic expectations.

How long before I see results?

Confirm typical timeline with clinicians — hair growth cycles mean visible change generally takes a few months.

Is PRP painful?

Confirm with your practitioner — most describe it as generally well-tolerated with minimal downtime.

Hair Loss & Thinning Treatment Vancouver

Hair loss treatment in Vancouver works best when it's matched to what's actually causing the thinning — genetics, hormones, stress, or scalp health all play different roles. At Kerrisdale Skin Medical, PRP Hair Restoration uses your own growth factors to stimulate follicle activity, while HydraFacial Keravive supports a healthier scalp environment between sessions. Because hair growth happens in cycles, results build gradually over months rather than overnight, and starting sooner tends to preserve more of what's there.
