Hair Restoration Services for men Hair loss can have a devastating impact on a person’s self-esteem. Fortunately, there are some things you can do to prevent and treat hair loss. At our Langhorne, PA facility, we welcome patients of all ages and offer personalized, consultative care for your hair restoration needs in a compassionate environment. If you are experiencing thinning hair or hair loss, here are our three best tips for moving forward:

Consider Your Diet

Your diet has a huge impact on all aspects of your health, including your hair. Because your hair needs certain vitamins and minerals to continue growing, it’s important to ensure that you are getting all the nutrition you need for happy and healthy hair. For example, because hair follicles are made mostly of a protein called keratin, make sure to include the appropriate amount of protein in your diet. Additionally, try to incorporate more Vitamin A into your diet. Vitamin A is composed in part of retinoids, which are used by the body to keep your scalp healthier and able to retain more hairs. Take this as an opportunity to enjoy all the foods that are rich in vitamin A, such as sweet potatoes, sweet peppers, and spinach. And always remember to stay hydrated, as this will only help your body and your hair!

Hair Care Routines

If your hair is thinning, you may need to reevaluate your hair care routines. Avoid brushing wet hair, as wet hair is very fragile and more easily loosened from the scalp. If you suffer from dry scalp, avoid over-washing your hair. Check out the ingredients of your shampoo and conditioner as well. You will want to pick hair products that are not loaded with chemicals like sulfate, paraben, and silicone, which can make your hair brittle and more prone to breakage. When styling your hair, avoid hairstyles that pull on your hairline or require hair tools that emit a lot of heat. This will reduce the amount of damage being done to your hair, and potentially allow it to grow back.
