For years, talk around hair loss has been taboo, leaving men with no option but to keep a stiff upper lip and put up with the problem. However, with hair loss affecting 42% of men aged 18-49, and the development of affordable and effective treatments, we think it’s time that men reach out for help. Hair loss medication gives you the opportunity to take action against your hair loss. Here are a few reasons why we think men struggling with hair loss should consider choosing hair loss medication.
Simple & easy to use
Hair loss treatment doesn’t have to be complicated. From Finasteride and Biotin tablets to DHT-blocking shampoo and Minoxidil solution, there are plenty of treatment option suitable for your stage of hair loss. Finasteride and Minoxidil are available in a combination of formulations, to give you the best chance of finding one which is suitable for your lifestyle and preferences.
Backed by science
Minoxidil and Finasteride are both clinically proven, licensed treatments for hair loss, meaning they have a body of research to support their efficacy for treating male pattern baldness. Of course there are other options you can consider for hair loss, like hair transplants, or hair systems, but medication can be a simple but effective way to halt any further hair loss, or even reverse early hair loss.
Boost your confidence
It’s no secret that a receding hairline can seriously damage a man’s self-confidence. Hair loss medication can give you the chance to take back that self-esteem and give your mental health a big boost. Whether you’re looking for love or want to impress at work, feeling good about yourself will always have a positive impact.
Long-term results
Studies have shown that after 2 years of consistent use of Finasteride, 66% of men were rated as having improved hair growth based on assessment of standardised clinical photographs’. As long as you keep up your daily dosage and stick to your treatment plan, you could see results within 3-6 months. Remember: hair loss medication must be taken consistently, long-term to maintain results.
It’s important to remember that hair loss is totally normal and affects a huge number of men in the UK. It’s totally up to you whether you want to go for a hair loss treatment plan or simply rock the bald look with the help of a razor. If the first option is more appealing, complete an online consultation for personalised treatment recommendations.
