Post-Cancer Hair Loss Treatment in Wellesley, MA

Hair loss from cancer treatment doesn’t always grow back the way patients expect, but with expert care and proven therapies, there’s hope for healing and regrowth.

Understanding the Unique Challenges of Post-Cancer Hair Loss

Hair loss after cancer treatment is different from typical female pattern hair loss. The causes are often multifactorial, ranging from follicular damage due to chemotherapy to hormonal imbalances triggered by ongoing medications.

At Medi Tresse Wellesley, we recognize that regrowth can be slow, inconsistent, or incomplete, even months or years after remission. That’s why our approach is uniquely designed for cancer survivors. We use advanced diagnostics and science-backed solutions, but we also listen closely—because emotional healing is just as important. You’re not just a hair loss patient. You’re a survivor—and we’re here to treat you with that level of care.

“Exceptional caring staff. I have had great results and am a long-term patient. My results are great, and I highly recommend their hair restoration program.”
— Heather Hart

How We Approach Post-Cancer Hair Loss

Our team specializes in diagnosing and treating all forms of female hair loss, including hair loss linked to cancer therapies. During your in-depth consultation, we’ll use tools like trichoscopy to assess your scalp and determine whether hair follicles are still active. If so, we may recommend a personalized combination of non-surgical treatments to stimulate growth and improve density gently.

Treatment options may include:

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or Optimal Platelet Concentration (OPC) Therapy to reactivate dormant follicles
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for gentle, at-home support
Medical-grade topicals or supplements to support overall hair health
Targeted scalp care to optimize the follicular environment

For best results, we recommend beginning treatment as soon as your oncology team clears you, but even if it's been months or years since treatment, we may still be able to help.

FAQs Post Cancer Hair Loss Treatments in Wellesley, MA

Can hair loss from cancer treatments be permanent?

Yes. Some patients—especially those receiving newer regimens or long-term hormonal therapy—may experience persistent thinning or incomplete regrowth.

How soon after cancer treatment can I start hair loss treatment?

Once your oncology team confirms remission and gives the all-clear, we can evaluate and plan your treatment options.

Is there a time limit for starting treatment?

No. We’ve seen success with patients who began treatment years after therapy, provided viable hair follicles remain.

Do you offer treatments while I’m still on hormonal therapy?

Yes. We tailor your plan around your active medications. Many treatments can be safely layered with ongoing prescriptions.

Are the treatments painful or invasive?

Most are non-invasive and well-tolerated. PRP involves minor injections, while laser therapy is completely painless and can be done at home.

Will you communicate with my oncologist?

Absolutely. We’re committed to safe, coordinated care and will happily collaborate with your oncology team as needed.
