Medical Hair Loss Prescriptions for Women in Wellesley, MA

Not all hair loss can be treated with lasers and topicals alone. At Medi Tresse Wellesley, prescription medications may be a key part of your custom care plan when used with precision and purpose.

When Medication Becomes Part of the Plan

Our providers may consider prescription medications in two ways:

To Treat Medical Forms of Hair Loss

Certain diagnoses—like scarring alopecia or autoimmune-related shedding—may require prescription steroids, antibiotics, or other drugs to calm inflammation and protect the follicle environment.

To Assess Your Current Medications’ Impact

Medications like birth control pills and hormone replacement therapies can influence hair density, texture, and retention. We’ll review your medications in detail and provide insights to discuss with your prescribing physician, helping ensure your current treatment isn’t working against your hair health.

Please note: We never recommend stopping or changing medication without medical clearance. We aim to support you with facts and collaborative care, not interfere with your ongoing treatments.

“I was very impressed with their approach. They follow the science to treat hair loss. Therapies were explained in detail, and I received a follow-up call after the visit in case I had questions. I was a bit nervous because hair loss treatment can involve costly fad tonics and creams, snake oils. That is not the case at Medi Tresse, where only medically proven techniques are suggested. I would recommend them highly.” — Sandra H.

Working Hand-in-Hand With Other Therapies

Prescription medications are often most effective when paired with complementary therapies. At Medi Tresse Wellesley, we may integrate medications into a broader approach that could include:

PRP or OPC Therapy
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)
Topical growth stimulants
Scalp exfoliation and detox treatments
Nutritional and hormonal support

We aim to treat the whole person, not just the symptom. That means combining the right tools to address every angle of hair loss.

No Guesswork or Default Scripts

Unlike many practices, we don’t rely on finasteride or other standard prescriptions that have not been well studied in women. Instead, we apply diagnostic insight, specialty experience, and individualized care, so you never feel like a number or a test case.

The Right Prescription Starts With the Right Diagnosis

If your hair loss requires medical intervention, we’ll ensure it’s done safely, strategically, and with your long-term health in mind.
