Our Hair Loss Treatment Options
At Medi Tresse, our goal is to offer women with all types of hair loss the chance to regain fuller and more luxurious hair. We understand how emotionally devastating thinning hair of any kind can be and we offer the most innovative non-surgical hair regrowth treatments available. We make sure to work with each patient individually to determine the cause of their hair loss, the patient’s ultimate goals of treatment, as well as her level of comfort with specific recommended hair regrowth treatments. Once we have answered those questions we work with the patient to develop a unique treatment plan that is tailored to meet the needs of the patient.
“It is important to determine the underlying causes of the patient’s hair loss so that we can create a treatment plan that will meet the unique needs of each of our patients.”
