Understanding Hair Loss and Hair Disorders
Hair loss is more common than many people realize and can affect both men and women at any age. While some hair shedding is normal, excessive or persistent hair loss may indicate an underlying condition that requires professional evaluation.
Hair disorders can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
- Genetics
- Hormonal changes
- Stress or illness
- Nutritional deficiencies
- Autoimmune conditions
- Scalp inflammation or infection
Because there are many potential causes, proper diagnosis is essential for effective treatment.
Common Hair Loss Conditions We Treat
At Moksha Dermatology, we diagnose and treat a wide range of hair and scalp conditions.
Androgenetic Alopecia (Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss)
This is the most common type of hair loss and is typically hereditary. It often presents as:
- Receding hairline in men
- Thinning at the crown
- Widening part in women
This condition progresses gradually over time but can be effectively managed with early intervention.
Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a form of temporary hair shedding often triggered by stress, illness, hormonal changes, or significant life events.
Common causes include:
- Pregnancy or postpartum changes
- Surgery or illness
- Rapid weight loss
- Emotional stress
This condition is usually reversible once the underlying cause is addressed.
Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition that causes patchy hair loss on the scalp or body.
It may appear as:
- Round or oval bald patches
- Sudden hair loss
- Changes in nail texture
Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation and encouraging regrowth.
Scalp Conditions
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. We treat conditions such as:
- Seborrheic dermatitis
- Psoriasis of the scalp
- Fungal infections
- Folliculitis
These conditions can contribute to hair thinning if left untreated.
Traction Alopecia
Caused by repeated tension on the hair from tight hairstyles, traction alopecia can lead to hair loss along the hairline and temples.
Early treatment is key to preventing permanent damage.
Advanced Hair Loss Treatments at Moksha Dermatology
At Moksha Dermatology, we offer a comprehensive range of treatments designed to address both the cause and the symptoms of hair loss.
Medical Hair Loss Treatments
Prescription medications may be recommended to slow hair loss and promote regrowth.
These may include:
- Topical treatments to stimulate hair follicles
- Oral medications to address hormonal factors
- Anti-inflammatory therapies for scalp conditions
Our providers carefully select treatments based on your diagnosis and medical history.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy
PRP therapy uses your body’s own growth factors to stimulate hair follicles and promote regrowth.
How it works:
- A small sample of your blood is drawn
- Platelets are concentrated and injected into the scalp
- Growth factors stimulate dormant hair follicles
PRP is a popular, non-surgical option for patients looking to improve hair density and thickness.

For patients seeking more advanced solutions, we offer treatments designed to restore hair growth and improve overall hair health.
These may include:

This holistic approach helps support long-term results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most common cause of hair loss?
The most common cause of hair loss is androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern hair loss. This condition is largely genetic and occurs gradually over time as hair follicles shrink and produce thinner, shorter hairs. However, other causes such as stress, hormonal changes, and medical conditions can also contribute to hair loss. A proper diagnosis is essential to determine the exact cause and create an effective treatment plan.
Can hair loss be reversed?
In many cases, hair loss can be slowed, stopped, or even partially reversed depending on the underlying cause and how early treatment begins. Conditions like telogen effluvium are often temporary and reversible, while others such as androgenetic alopecia require ongoing management. With advanced treatments like PRP therapy and medical interventions, many patients experience significant improvement in hair density and growth.
How long does it take to see results from hair loss treatment?
Hair growth is a gradual process, so results take time. Most patients begin to notice reduced shedding within a few months, followed by visible regrowth in three to six months. Full results can take up to a year depending on the treatment plan. Consistency is key, and following your provider’s recommendations will help ensure the best outcome.
Is PRP therapy effective for hair loss?
PRP therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for many types of hair loss, particularly androgenetic alopecia. By using your body’s own growth factors, PRP helps stimulate hair follicles and improve hair thickness. While results vary, many patients see noticeable improvement with a series of treatments and proper maintenance.
When should I see a dermatologist for hair loss?
You should see a dermatologist if you notice sudden or excessive hair shedding, thinning, or patchy hair loss. Early evaluation allows for prompt diagnosis and treatment, which can significantly improve outcomes. If hair loss is left untreated, it may progress and become more difficult to manage.
