One Current Patient Asks A Hair Care Expert:

“Hello, i have experienced a very significant amount of thinning on the sides of my head (ie around the ear to about halfway up the side of my head. Do you know if there are any medications that will help with this kind of hair-loss? I’ve been using rogaine and finasteride with pretty good results on the top of my head. Thanks”

Dr Peter H. Proctor, PhD MD answered: “The same agents that work on top work on the sides. There is no “special treatment” for one location or type of loss as opposed to another. In fact, we use basically the same treatment for alopecia areata as we do for pattern hair loss, even though they are both entirely different conditions. Unfortunately, the only way to tell if something is going to work is just to try it and see what happens.
