Thinning or Balding? Here Are 6 Ways to Slow Hair Loss!

Hair loss is a common problem that affects millions of people worldwide. While there are many reasons why hair loss occurs, including genetics, stress, and lifestyle factors, there are also many ways to slow and prevent it.

Whether you’re experiencing hereditary hair loss from androgenic alopecia, or another form of hair loss, such as from vitamin deficiency, it’s important to make the right lifestyle choices to maintain strong growth and slow down the amount of hair you’re losing. Let’s explore 6 effective ways to save your hair and explore SmartGraft as a treatment option!

1. Keep your scalp clean and healthy

A healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair growth. Keeping your scalp clean and free from build-up is crucial for maintaining healthy hair. Use a gentle shampoo and conditioner that is suitable for your hair type and avoid using harsh chemicals or hot styling tools that can damage your hair. Remember to also avoid washing with hot water as this irritates and dries your scalp, accelerating loss of hair.

2. Eat a balanced diet

A healthy diet that includes plenty of protein, vitamins, and minerals is essential for healthy hair growth. In particular, foods that are high in protein, such as lean meats, fish, and eggs, can help strengthen hair follicles and reduce hair loss. Eating more fruits and vegetables is also helpful for providing your body with key nutrients it needs for optimal health. Foods that are high in vitamin C, vitamin D, and biotin can also help promote healthy hair growth.

3. Avoid excessive hair scrubbing and brushing

Excessive scrubbing and brushing can cause damage to your hair follicles and lead to breakage. Use a wide-toothed comb or brush made specifically for wet hair and be gentle when styling it. Avoid tight hairstyles such as braids, ponytails, and buns that can pull on the hair too much and cause hair breakage. While breakage itself may not directly affect your follicles, this can still cause your hair to appear thinner than it should.

4. Manage your stress levels

Stress can cause hair loss by disrupting the natural hair growth cycle. Finding ways to manage your stress levels, such as practicing meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises, can help reduce hair loss and promote healthy hair growth. Make it a goal to set aside time for self-care and relaxation, and you’ll find less strands coming out in the shower!

5. Receive an IV infusion

IV infusions offer greater absorption than supplements, bypassing your digestive system for maximum effect! Vitamin deficiency often leads to temporary hair loss; however, this can be quickly addressed with an IV infusion. Undergoing an infusion ensures your body is receiving the proper nourishment it needs to support healthy growing hair.

While there are many over-the-counter supplements and medications available for hair loss, they often come with a wide range of side effects and complications. IV infusions offer a natural way to maintain hair growth and optimize your health overall.

6. Consult with a hair restoration specialist

If you’re experiencing significant hair loss, consulting with a hair restoration specialist can help you determine the cause and the best course of action. A procedure such as SmartGraft hair restoration is a safe and effective solution for both men and women who want to achieve natural-looking, permanent hair growth.

The SmartGraft hair restoration device uses advanced technology to harvest individual hair follicles from the back of your head, implanting hair grafts into the areas where hair loss has occurred. Additionally, we also recommend natural injections to strengthen existing hair growth and awaken dormant hair follicles.

Our hair restoration experts at Defiage Med Spa create an individualized treatment plan for patients to ensure optimal results. This is recommended for those who have been struggling with continual hair loss and are experiencing significant balding, thinning, and hairline recession.

Is hair loss reversible?

While there are many ways to help slow hair loss and promote stronger hair growth, it is not always possible to completely reverse the process, especially if the type of hair loss is caused by a medical condition such as male and female pattern baldness. However, with the right treatments and lifestyle changes, you can improve your hair health and reduce your rate of hair loss.

If you’re experiencing significant hair loss, we recommend you consult with a hair restoration specialist and explore hair loss treatments such as SmartGraft. This can provide a long-term solution for natural-looking, permanent hair growth!
