Hair Loss & Nail Concerns
Hair loss has many faces — and many causes: from seasonal shedding to hormonal and autoimmune conditions. That is why we start with a diagnosis, not with another "miracle" shampoo.
Who it is for
- For increased shedding or thinning hair
- For patchy hair loss
- For changes in nail colour, shape or texture
How it works
- 1A detailed history: onset, course, accompanying factors
- 2Examination of the scalp, hair and nails
- 3Referral for laboratory tests if needed
- 4A treatment plan and realistic expectations about timelines
My approach
„With hair loss I look for the cause first — blood count, iron, thyroid, hormones — and only then treat. Everything else is guesswork with shampoos.“
Good to know
- 1
Shedding that starts 2–3 months after stress, illness or childbirth is usually telogen effluvium — and it is reversible.
- 2
Tight hairstyles and aggressive treatments have a cumulative effect on the hair shaft.
- 3
Nail changes are sometimes a window onto general health — they deserve an examination, not just polish on top.
After the consultation
Hair grows slowly — results take months, not days. We track progress objectively at follow-up visits.
Prices and duration are confirmed at booking — according to the individual case.
Frequently asked questions
Yes — up to around 100 hairs a day is normal. Sudden heavy or patchy loss is the warning sign.
Often yes — blood work and certain markers help us find the cause instead of guessing.
Hair lives in slow cycles: the first objective changes come after 3–4 months, confident results after 6 or more. That is why we photograph and measure rather than rely on impressions.
