What are some of the causes of hair loss you see in your practice?
"Hair loss is a common concern for both men and women, and the causes can vary widely. The most frequently seen types in my clinical practice are male and female pattern hair loss, which are largely genetic and tend to progress gradually over time. However, hair loss can also be triggered or worsened by other factors, including stress or illness, hormonal changes, scalp and nutritional health, medical conditions and hair styling practices."
How does hair loss affect your patients’ lives?
"Hair loss is often viewed as a cosmetic issue, but its effects go far deeper than appearance alone. For many patients, losing hair can significantly affect emotional well-being, leading to social withdrawal, avoidance of certain activities or reluctance to appear in photos or public settings."
What hair restoration process do you recommend?
"One of the treatments I often recommend is Alma TED, which stands for TransEpidermal Delivery. This innovative method is non-invasive, pain-free and requires no needles or downtime. In addition to Alma TED, I often combine treatments with De|Rive, a plant-based exosome serum that supports scalp health and hair growth, as well as topical and oral medications like minoxidil and finasteride. Nutritional supplements and red light therapy are also commonly incorporated to enhance results."
What results do you see for your patients?
"Many patients begin to notice visible improvements in hair quality and density within a few weeks of starting Alma TED treatments. Typical results include reduced shedding, improved hair texture (less breakage and dryness), increased hair density (thickness) and new growth in areas where hair had been thinning."
Who is a good candidate for hair restoration?
"Alma TED is a great option for anyone experiencing early to moderate hair thinning or shedding and wanting a non-invasive solution to improve hair growth. It’s especially helpful for people noticing a widening part, thinning around the temples or crown or more hair in the shower or on their brush than usual. Alma TED is also ideal for individuals who want to strengthen existing hair, improve scalp health and prevent further hair loss."
What other services do you provide?
"I offer a wide range of non-surgical treatments designed to enhance and rejuvenate the skin. These include Botox, dermal fillers and biostimulators to smooth lines and restore natural volume, as well as advanced options like skin resurfacing, skin tightening and non-surgical eyelid tightening. I also provide salmon DNA mesoneedling — a regenerative therapy that promotes radiant, healthy skin — and medical grade chemical peels. As a certified acne specialist, I’m dedicated to helping patients of all ages achieve clear, healthy skin through personalized and results-driven care."
What is your medical background?
"After practicing family medicine for more than 10 years, I decided to further specialize by pursuing advanced training in aesthetic medicine. This additional education has allowed me to combine my comprehensive medical knowledge with cutting-edge cosmetic techniques to provide safe, effective and personalized treatments that help patients look and feel their best."
"When it comes to treating hair loss, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. I tailor each treatment plan based on underlying cause, extent of hair loss and my patients’ individual goals."
