Hair loss can be a troublesome medical condition for both men and women. Over the past few years, we have experienced an increase in visits from our patients concerned about hair shedding as well as concerns that they are seeing a reduced rate of new hair growth.

Many factors can contribute to hair loss including stressful life events (telogen effluvium), menopause and perimenopause, and vitamin/mineral deficiencies.

Therefore, it is always necessary to start with a complete evaluation, including a physical exam of the scalp and hair, in addition to hormone and nutrient testing to address the underlying cause.

Often, with the proper hormone balancing and nutrient regimen, we are able to reduce the amount of shedding that patients experience. However, some of our patients continue to complain of slowed regrowth.

This concerning issue is just as frustrating for us as it is for our patients. We are committed to helping each patient feel and look their best from the inside out and hair is an important part of how we present ourselves in the world.

We are excited to be able to offer a topical peptide regimen for patients experiencing hair loss and reduced or slow growth. The regimen consists of 2 vials of peptides that are applied day and night, in addition to a thickening agent which helps to increase the follicle size and create fuller, thicker hair.

Duo Zn-Thymulin/GHK-Cu: This combination peptide helps to increase zinc and copper in the follicles. These two minerals are necessary for skin and hair health, and both naturally decline as we age. They work together synergistically to increase the hair follicle life span and the repair of the hair follicle.

PTD-DBM with Methyl Vanillate: This is a powerful peptide and antioxidant, which has been researched for the past 3-4 years in skin and hair health. It inhibits the shrinkage of the hair follicle and can also help to revive dying follicles. This spray has been used alone with good efficacy, but in combination with Duo and the thickening spray, better results are achieved.

Rejuvenate Hair Thickening Spray: This natural product combines amaranth, peptide fractions, protein and amino acids to increase hair diameter by 11%. This results in thicker hair overall and also helps to reduce friction and smooth hair.

We have bundled these new products along with the Hair Growth supplements from Douglas Labs as a new powerful 30-day hair growth protocol. Contact our office to learn more about these products and our full hair restoration protocol.
