Not sure whether or not you are having excessive hair loss? In a normal condition, people lose about 100 hairs a day. This may sound a lot! But it is not noticeable indeed because new hair is growing in at the same time.
Hair loss occurs when new hairs do not replace the ones that have fallen out or when the person loses more hairs than expected.
The disorder of hair loss, called alopecia, thins the hair shaft and eventually kills the hair follicles causing baldness.
Next, we talk about the main causes of alopecia, its prevention, and the treatment with mesotherapy, which acts both on preventing and restoring the affected region.
Causes
Hereditary hair loss with age is the most common cause of baldness. According to researches, about half of the male population can suffer from alopecia up to their 50’s.
Hair loss also can be the result of hormonal imbalance, autoimmune diseases, lack of vitamins, minerals and oligo elements, and other medical conditions.

Prevention
For baldness caused by genetic factors, unfortunately, there is no way to prevent it. For other cases, the following tips may help:
- Be gentle with your hair: avoid tugging when brushing and combing, tight rubber bands, and harsh treatments such as curling irons, straightenings and permanents.
- Check if medications and supplements you take might cause hair loss.
- Protect your hair from the sun.
- Stop smoking: some studies show a relation between smoking and baldness.
Treatment
Mesotherapy is well known as a great ally for patients experiencing seasonal or progressive hair loss, capillary weakness and fragility, and dry Scalp or excessively oily scalp.
How does mesotherapy work?
Mesotherapy (from Greek mesos, “middle”, and therapeia, “therapy”, means “to treat medically”) is a non-surgical cosmetic medicine treatment.
Basically, it employs multiple injections into the scalp of essential oligoelements, vitamins, minerals and amino acids needed by the hair follicle.
Mesotherapy stimulates oxygenation and feeds the capillary, strengthening and increasing hair density and decreasing the loss.
