The treatments

What we prescribe

A full menu of hair-restoration options for men and women. Your provider helps you choose the right treatment — and the right form — for your hair and goals.

How it works

The science, in three steps

1

Block DHT

DHT-blocking medications lower the hormone that shrinks hair follicles, slowing and stopping the loss at its hormonal source.

2

Stimulate the follicle

Minoxidil increases blood flow to the scalp and wakes dormant follicles, extending the growth phase of the hair cycle.

3

Regrow & maintain

With loss slowed and follicles active, hair fills back in over months — and consistent use keeps the results you gain.

The best results usually come from doing both at once. Finasteride and minoxidil attack hair loss from two angles — blocking the hormone that thins hair while actively stimulating regrowth.

Questions, answered

Hair Restoration FAQ

Does it actually work? +
For most people with hormonal hair loss, yes — finasteride and minoxidil are among the most studied hair-loss treatments available. Finasteride slows and stops loss by blocking DHT, and minoxidil stimulates regrowth. Results vary by person and depend on consistent use; a licensed provider reviews your history and sets realistic expectations.
Oral vs. topical — what's the difference? +
Oral versions are convenient once-daily pills that work throughout your body. Topical versions — sprays, creams, and compounded combos — are applied directly to the scalp, which can lower how much of the medication enters your bloodstream. Your provider recommends the form that best fits your goals and health history.
Are there finasteride side effects? +
Most people tolerate finasteride well, but a small percentage report side effects, which can include changes in libido or sexual function. Topical and compounded formulas are one way to lower systemic exposure. A licensed provider reviews your history, explains the risks, and helps you decide whether it's the right fit.
How long until I see results? +
Hair grows slowly, so patience matters. Most people begin to see reduced shedding and early regrowth around 3–6 months of consistent use, with fuller results after a year. Stopping treatment typically reverses the gains over time, so hair restoration is an ongoing routine.
Do you treat women's hair loss? +
Yes. We offer provider-prescribed options for women, most commonly minoxidil-based regrowth treatments. Some medications, including finasteride and dutasteride, are used differently or avoided in women — a licensed provider reviews your history and recommends an appropriate option.
Is it discreet? +
Yes. Your consultation is confidential and your treatment ships in plain, unmarked packaging with nothing on the outside to reveal what's inside.
