Hair Restoration Therapy for Female Pattern Hair Loss

Understanding causes, treatment options & realistic results for women

Female pattern hair loss is a common yet emotionally challenging condition. Hair restoration therapy focuses on slowing hair thinning, strengthening follicles, and improving overall scalp health using medically approved, non-surgical treatments.

What Is Female Pattern Hair Loss?

Female pattern hair loss (FPHL) is characterised by gradual thinning over the crown and widening of the part line while maintaining the frontal hairline. Unlike sudden hair fall, this condition progresses slowly and often goes unnoticed in the early stages.

  • Gradual thinning rather than patchy baldness
  • More common after hormonal changes
  • Often associated with genetics
  • Progressive if untreated

Common Causes in Women

Hormonal Changes
PCOS, menopause, postpartum changes

Medical Conditions
Thyroid disorders, anemia

Genetic Factors
Family history of thinning hair

How Hair Restoration Therapy Helps

Hair restoration therapy does not aim to create new follicles but focuses on revitalising existing ones. By improving scalp circulation, supplying growth factors, and strengthening hair roots, these therapies help slow progression and improve hair density.

  • Strengthens weakened follicles
  • Improves hair thickness & texture
  • Reduces excessive shedding
  • Supports long-term scalp health
