Help for Hair Loss

Many people (both men and women) suffer from the problem of hair loss: Balding, thinning hair, increased shedding of hair and alopecia are factors that affect many men and women. 

One of the commonest forms of hair loss in women (and men) is a condition called telogen effluvium, in which there is a diffuse shedding of hairs around the scalp and elsewhere on the body. This is usually a reaction to intense stress on the body's physical or hormonal systems, or as a reaction to medication. The condition, which can occur at any age, generally begins fairly suddenly and gets better on its own within about six months, although for a few people it can become a chronic problem. However the thinning hair itself can cause confidence issues and added stress which can further add to the problem.


Another common type of hair loss in women is androgenetic alopecia, which is related to hormone levels in the body. There's a large genetic predisposition, which may be inherited from the father or mother. Research shows that up to 13 per cent of women have some degree of this sort of hair loss before the menopause, and afterwards it becomes far more common - one piece of research suggests that over the age of 65 as many as 75 per cent of women are affected.

Male Hair Loss, also know as Androgenic Alopecia or male pattern baldness, is caused by the effect of the male hormones, called androgens, on genetically predisposed hair follicles (passed down the family tree). Androgenetic alopecia affects roughly 50 per cent of men and perhaps as many women over the age of 40.

If you suffer from any of the problems above then help is at hand. Here at The Cosmetic Practice we have a number of products designed especially for hair. Many of our clients have been using LA Science Anti Hair Loss Serum and have given some fantastic feedback on this product.

Hair growth cycles alternate between a growth phase (called anagen, it lasts about three years) and a resting phase (telogen, which lasts about three months). During telogen, the hair remains in the follicle until it is pushed out by the growth of a new hair in the anagen phase.

LA Science Anti Hair Loss Serum is so much more than a luxury cosmetic. Its active ingredients help extend the growth phase of hair for a beautiful, thicker looking, healthy head of hair; and it’s also a powerful weapon to help fight hair loss. Unlike many systemic hair loss products, its unique, patented nano technology delivery system uses an active peptide combination that delivers the formula directly to the root of the problem. This nurtures and conditions the hair and follicles, promoting the best environment for the prevention of hair loss.

So why don't you give it a try or check out our other fabulous Hair Products here at The Cosmetic Practice and say hello to thicker, healthier hair.
