Thinning Hair

Causes, early signs, and personalized solutions.

Thinning hair is one of the most common early indicators of hair loss. Many people first notice a shrinking ponytail, a more visible scalp, or increased shedding in the shower. Unlike bald spots, thinning hair often develops gradually, making it easier to address when recognized early.

Why hair thins

  • Telogen Effluvium: A temporary condition often triggered by stress, illness, or a traumatic event, causing hair to shed more quickly than normal.
  • Hormonal shifts: Pregnancy, menopause, or birth control changes can disrupt growth cycles and result in diffuse thinning.
  • Nutritional deficiencies: Low levels of protein, iron, or key vitamins — especially D and B-complex — can weaken hair follicles.
  • Aging: Over time, follicles naturally shrink and produce finer strands, leading to reduced volume.

Possible treatments

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

A non-invasive approach that stimulates follicles and may encourage stronger, healthier regrowth.

Micropoint Solutions

Precision techniques that add extra strands to thinning areas for immediate volume without surgery.

Nutritional support

Targeted supplements and dietary adjustments can help strengthen follicle function from within.

Topical treatments

Growth-supporting formulas applied directly to the scalp to help encourage healthier hair cycles.
