HAIR LOSS
There are many types of hair loss, which can and do respond to treatment. There are also some types of hair loss, which can have a natural or spontaneous recovery. Excessive hair loss can often be a symptom of some other problem or variation in the metabolism of the body, and for this reason, your GP may also need to be consulted.
PROBLEMS OF THE SCALP
Problems of the scalp, ranging from dandruff to more inflammatory conditions can be caused by stress, poor diet or even some allergies to certain foods. These can be responsible for the build up and shedding of dead skin cells. Here guidance on diet and relevant topical products are recommended. Hair Texture ProblemsHair texture problems can be caused by over exposure to heat or strong chemicals, or by many other stresses and strains. Hair texture problems usually respond very well to appropriate advice and treatment, as the cause(s), once discovered, can often be reduced or eliminated altogether.
The treatment and shampoos were very good. It helped with my head scalp serious diseases and stopped itching and helped to start to grow new hairs. Trichologist Shirley did all research to find a cause of head scalp diseases, considering inner organism chronic diseases, anemia... And she adviced, what to use for inside, in order to reduce scalp diseases. I am very happy I found this clinic and an amazing specialist, Shirley. And prices, compared to other clinics, very small.
I have been seeing Shirley McDonald since the 22nd October and attended my second appointment on the 2nd December and I am already seeing early improvements and regrowth from years of extensive hair loss. The products prescribed to me and the service I receive at the clinic are of a very high standard.
I had an initial consultation about my hair shedding. I was more than happy with the consultation which was informative and helpful. The trichologist definitely knows what she is talking about and doing. Would recommend.
Thank you so much for leaving such an amazing review. I appreciate you taking the time to complete a review.
