How this service works
Hair Loss Assessment
During your consultation, a healthcare professional will review:
✓ Your hair loss pattern and symptoms
✓ Your medical history
✓ Current medications
✓ Previous treatments tried
✓ Your suitability for available treatment options
This helps determine whether your hair loss is consistent with male pattern hair loss and whether treatment may be appropriate.
Treatment Options
Following your assessment, suitable treatment options may be discussed.
Finasteride 1mg
Finasteride is a prescription-only treatment used for male pattern hair loss.
It works by reducing levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone associated with hair follicle shrinkage in genetically susceptible men.
Treatment aims to help slow further hair loss and maintain existing hair.
Results are gradual, and continued use is generally required to maintain the benefits.
Ongoing Monitoring & Support
Hair loss treatment requires regular review to ensure it remains suitable and effective.
During follow-up consultations, we review:
✓ Progress and treatment response
✓ Any side effects or concerns
✓ Changes in your health or medication
✓ Whether continuing treatment remains appropriate
Our weight loss programme isn't just about medication. It's about your mindset too.
