Regain Hair and Confidence | Male Hair Thinning Treatments
Male hair thinning, a common concern for many men, is more than just a cosmetic issue. It may have an impact on self-assurance, self-worth, and general well-being. We understand the emotional and physical impacts of hair thinning and offer tailored solutions to help you regain your hair and confidence.
Understanding Male Hair Thinning
Male hair thinning is the gradual loss of hair density, often leading to baldness if left untreated. Usually, it starts with a thinning at the crown or receding hairline. This condition is not just about losing hair; it’s about losing the thickness and volume that give hair its fullness. Unlike sudden hair loss, which might be due to stress or illness, male hair thinning is usually a progressive process.
Causes of Male Hair Thinning
Several factors contribute to male hair thinning.
- Genetics: Male pattern baldness, known as androgenetic alopecia, is the most common cause. It’s inherited and often follows a predictable pattern, starting with thinning at the temples and crown.
- Hormonal Changes: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) plays a significant role in hair thinning. DHT binds to hair follicles, causing them to shrink and produce thinner hair over time.
- Age: As men age, hair growth slows down. The hair follicles produce thinner, shorter strands, and eventually, some follicles stop producing hair altogether.
- Lifestyle Factors: Stress, poor diet, and lack of exercise can exacerbate hair thinning. Nutritional deficiencies, particularly in iron, vitamin D, and protein, can also contribute to hair loss.
- Medical Conditions: Certain medical conditions, such as thyroid disorders and scalp infections, can cause or worsen hair thinning.
Treatments for Male Hair Thinning
We offer a range of treatments tailored to the individual needs of our clients.
- Medications: Prescription medications like Finasteride and Minoxidil are commonly used to slow down or even reverse hair thinning. Finasteride works by reducing DHT levels, while Minoxidil stimulates hair follicles.
- Hair Transplantation: For those seeking a more permanent solution, hair transplantation is an effective option. This involves moving hair follicles from areas of dense growth to thinning or balding areas.
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: PRP therapy involves injecting your platelets into the scalp to stimulate hair growth. This treatment enhances blood supply to the hair follicles, encouraging natural hair growth.
- Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): LLLT uses laser light to stimulate hair follicles and promote hair growth. It is a non-invasive therapeutic alternative that can be applied in addition to other forms of treatment.
- Scalp Micropigmentation: This is a non-surgical solution where tiny pigment deposits are placed on the scalp, mimicking the appearance of hair follicles. It’s ideal for those who prefer a shaved look.
Best Suitable Candidate for Treatment
The best candidates for hair thinning treatments are those in the early to mid stages of hair loss. Early intervention is key to achieving the best results. Candidates should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and be committed to following the recommended treatment plan. Those with significant hair loss might benefit more from surgical options like hair transplantation.

Aftercare & Maintenance for Treatment of Male Hair Thinning
Post-treatment care is crucial to maintaining the results of any hair-thinning treatment. We offer thorough aftercare guidelines specific to every treatment.
- Medications: Continue using prescribed medications as directed. It’s important to be consistent, as stopping medication can lead to the resumption of hair thinning.
- Scalp Care: Keep the scalp clean and avoid harsh chemicals. Gentle shampoos and conditioners designed for thinning hair can help maintain scalp health.
- Regular Follow-ups: Regular check-ups allow us to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
- Healthy Lifestyle: Maintain a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and manage stress to support overall hair health. Incorporating vitamins and supplements recommended by our specialists can also help.
- Avoid Heat and Chemicals: Minimize the use of heat styling tools and harsh chemical treatments, as these can damage hair and scalp health.
Success Story of Alastair Williamson
Alastair Williamson is a 45-year-old IT consultant with great success in the digital transformation space. Following several decades of experiencing hair loss, Alastair decided to take action against one of his greatest personal demons.
Alastair visited a highly advertised clinic where he was prescribed medication, costing him £900 for a full year’s supply, before reaching out to the clinic. Alastair was very disappointed when, a year later, he saw little to no change in the condition of his hair. Alastair asked to see our clinic after hearing about it from a close buddy.
In addition to seeing a surgeon in person, he had a video consultation with a consultant. He made consultations with several other clinics as well. After learning about a FUE hair transplant, he concluded that we had the most thorough and affable approach.
To repair his region of baldness, 2348 grafts were transplanted during Alastair Williamson’s hair transplant treatment in January 2021.
When we reconnected with Alastair 18 months after his operation, he was overjoyed with the result.
