Callaghan Scalp & Hair Loss Solutions

Trichologist For Alopecia in Bolton

Alopecia is a term used to describe hair loss. The causes of alopecia areata are varied but can be treated successfully. Alopecia areata is typically patches of circular hair loss with hard or abrupt borders which can appear suddenly or gradually over months.

Some people develop a single bald patch or many patches which join together to form large areas of baldness. Very rarely some cases progress to Alopecia Totalis (total loss of scalp hair) or Alopecia Universalis (total loss of all hair).

If you are concerned that you may have alopecia, act sooner rather than later by seeking advice from a qualified, reputable trichologist like Harry Callaghan.

Causes of Alopecia Areata

The causes of alopecia areata are wide and varied and can include viruses, accidents, poor health, shock, extreme stress, medication or just a bang on the head which can trigger the condition.

Alopecia areata is more common in people who have a family history of it, also people who have asthma, eczema and hay fever are more likely to develop it.

Studies have shown that alopecia areata could be an immune system malfunction where your body's own immune system attacks healthy hair follicles causing scalp soreness, tingling, burning or stinging as a result.

Treatment of Alopecia Areata

The first port of call for alopecia sufferers is normally their GP. Your GP will recommend blood tests, steroid creams and referral to a dermatologist.

At Callaghan Trichology we prefer a more holistic approach to the treatment of alopecia areata and use a variety of techniques tailored to your specific needs identified in our consultation.

These include supplements to support the immune system, diet and lifestyle changes, correcting deficiencies, counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy. Other solutions include topical hair stimulants, electrotherapy and laser therapy which we will discuss with you in our treatment plan.
