Am I a Good Candidate for Hair Restoration Treatments?
Hair restoration treatments offer remarkable results — but they work best for the right candidates. Understanding candidacy helps set realistic expectations and ensures you invest in the treatment most likely to deliver meaningful results.
Ideal Candidates for Non-Surgical Hair Restoration
- Adults with early-to-moderate hair thinning or loss
- Men and women with androgenetic alopecia
- Those experiencing alopecia areata in manageable stages
- Clients with telogen effluvium (stress or hormonal shedding)
- Post-transplant patients maintaining results
- Anyone with still-viable miniaturized follicles
Factors That Reduce Candidacy
- Complete, smooth baldness for many years (follicles likely no longer viable)
- Uncontrolled active autoimmune conditions
- Current use of blood thinners (may affect PRP)
- Active scalp infections in the treatment area
- Pregnancy
How to Know If Your Follicles Are Still Active
A scalp assessment using dermatoscopy to examine follicle health at a magnified level is the most reliable way to determine whether follicles are still viable. This is performed during your consultation.
