Hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia)

One of the most common causes of hair loss in women is hereditary hair loss, also known as alopecia androgenetica. This is caused by a genetic predisposition and increased sensitivity to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Hair loss often starts at the centre parting and gradually spreads across the top of the head. The hair becomes thinner, but the hairline usually remains intact. This type of hair loss often occurs after the menopause, but can also start earlier.

Recommended treatment

In the early stages of hereditary hair loss, we recommend starting hair growth stimulating products that reduce the influence of DHT and promote hair growth. Neofollics Shampoo and Neofollics Tablets contain powerful ingredients that strengthen the hair follicles and help prevent further hair loss. In cases of more advanced hair loss, additional treatment with Neofollics Lotion can provide extra support and visible improvement.

El champú estimulante del crecimiento capilar Veta constituye la base del tratamiento. Contiene varios ingredientes estimulantes del crecimiento del cabello e inhibidores de la DHT, además de las vitaminas y minerales esenciales para un crecimiento sano del cabello desde el interior.

Con el champú, el acondicionador y la loción, dispondrá de 3 productos tópicos para estimular el crecimiento del cabello desde el exterior. Las pastillas estimularán el crecimiento de un cabello sano desde el interior.

Hormonal changes

Hormonal fluctuations are a common cause of hair loss in women. Events such as pregnancy, the menopause or changes in contraceptive use can disrupt the hormonal balance. This can cause the hair to suddenly enter a resting phase, leading to diffuse hair loss across the entire head. This form of hair loss is called telogen effluvium and fortunately usually recovers within a few months to a year.

Recommended treatment

To support your hair during hormonal fluctuations, we recommend an approach that focuses on recovery from within and care from without. A combination of Neofollics Shampoo, MSM powder and Neofollics Tablets helps nourish the hair roots, support the hair cycle and prevent further hair loss.

Hair loss due to stress, illness and/or medication

Sometimes your body can become unbalanced due to medical conditions or prolonged stress. Conditions such as an underactive thyroid, anaemia or autoimmune diseases such as alopecia areata can cause hair loss. Medications such as antidepressants, steroids, contraceptives or chemotherapy can also have hair loss as a side effect.

Stress also plays a major role. Prolonged stress causes your body to produce more cortisol, a hormone that can disrupt the hair growth cycle. This causes more hairs to fall out at the same time, leading to visibly thinner hair. This type of hair loss is known as telogen effluvium.

Recommended treatment

For hair loss caused by stress, we recommend a holistic approach that addresses both the physical and mental aspects. The combination of Revita.SOD Tablets, Spectral.F7 Lotion and Neofollics Shampoo helps nourish the hair follicles, reduce stress and stimulate hair growth.

Revita.SOD contiene todas las vitaminas, minerales y aminoácidos esenciales para el crecimiento del cabello. En segundo lugar, la loción Spectral.F7 está especialmente indicada para las personas que sufren caída del cabello por enfermedad, estrés o envejecimiento. En tercer lugar, el champú Neofollics estimula el crecimiento del cabello y le devuelve su forma óptima.

Nutrition and lifestyle

A healthy lifestyle plays a major role in the health of your hair. Deficiencies in iron, vitamins or other essential nutrients can cause your hair to become weaker and fall out more quickly. Eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia can also have a negative impact on hair growth. Eating a good, varied diet with sufficient nutrients is therefore crucial for strong and healthy hair.

Recommended treatment

For hair loss caused by nutritional deficiencies, we recommend a combination of Neofollics Lotion and Neofollics Shampoo. The lotion helps to activate hair growth and protect the hair follicles, while the shampoo keeps the scalp healthy and promotes the absorption of active ingredients. This creates the optimal environment for regrowth.

El champú Neofollics, posiblemente complementado con el acondicionador Neofollics, estimula el crecimiento de su cabello e inhibe la inflamación del cuero cabelludo. Además, cuidan el cuero cabelludo y el cabello. La combinación de estos dos productos proporciona un efecto más potente y una mayor probabilidad de crecimiento rápido del cabello.
