Anagenic alopecia: causes and treatment

baldness – it is a problem faced by people of all genders, ages, races, etc. As you know, there are different types of baldness (alopecia): this classification is based on the causes of this disease, as well as on the nature of its manifestation. It goes without saying that different approaches are used to treat different types of alopecia, taking into account the different factors specific to each type.

Today Estet-portal will describe the features of anagen alopecia, as well as the treatment used to get rid of this disease. 

Alopecia anagen (baldness after chemotherapy) is very similar to telogen effluvium. This type of baldness is not symptomatic, but toxic. As a rule, with anagen alopecia, the hair falls evenly over the entire head.

Anagen hair loss is faster and more intense. Most often, anagen alopecia begins after an aggressive effect on the body of drugs such as anticancer drugs (chemotherapy) or after exposure to toxic substances. Hair stops growing in the active phase (anagen), then, bypassing the catogen and telogen, falls out.

Treatment of anagen alopecia

Since the drugs that cause anagen alopecia are prescribed due to the presence of very serious diseases, the toxic effect on the hair is not taken into account. After taking the drugs, hair growth usually recovers on its own and does not require additional therapy.

Anagen alopecia significantly aggravates the psychological state of patients diagnosed with cancer. They become not only psychologically depressed from the diagnosis, but also physically hard to endure the complications caused by anticancer drugs. Against the background of all of the above, hair loss leads patients to a depressed state. 

To alleviate the psychological state during the treatment of anagen alopecia, it is necessary to prepare and choose a wig before taking chemotherapy. The choice of a wig should be approached carefully, after consulting with a hairdresser.  

Hairdressers will help cut and color the wig according to the color and type of the patient, as well as tell you about the rules for caring for it. Since wearing a wig while receiving chemotherapy will be lengthy, you need to know how to properly wash and style your hair on it. This will greatly ease the morale of the patients and increase their thirst for recovery.

Alopecia treatment with mesoscooter

Alopecia areata or diffuse alopecia with adequate medical therapy are one of the main indications for microneedling of the scalp. Using traditional Eastern methods of acupuncture, micro-punctures of the dermaroller in the scalp area increase blood flow, which contributes to the saturation of the hair follicles with nutrients and is the strongest stimulator of the growth of "sleeping" bulbs:

Biofibre hair implantation technique – it is an effective, safe and at the same time simple surgical procedure that allows you to achieve natural hair density. Biofibre hair implantation is recommended for insufficient scalp hair and alopecia. Due to the different lengths of the thread (from 15 to 45 cm), the procedure is indicated for both men and women, regardless of age, as well as a rejuvenating procedure or when it is necessary to enhance the aesthetic results of other hair restoration methods.
