Female pattern hair loss, called Ludwig Pattern Baldness, seems much more simple than male pattern hair loss.

It usually shows in either the crown or behind the hairline and appears much larger or pronounced over time. Female balding is detected when you can easily see the scalp through the hair.

For a woman, this is a horrifying situation and not as commonly accepted as it is in a man. There are many causes for female hair loss, for example, stress, hormonal, prolonged illness.

What do I do now?

Telephone Clinic Del Mondo for an appointment to discuss the available treatments. We can then assess which treatment would suit you best.

One option is with our trichologist, Janne Scougall-Hunt. Janne has successfully treated hundreds of women with simple and affordable treatments. Please refer to our trichology page.

In some cases, these treatments will not correct the problem, however, a hair transplant (micro graft, dense pack) may be an option. Our clinic has treated many women with this procedure. It usually restores fullness and density with no obvious signs of a procedure ever having taken place. Please refer to our transplant page.

Another option for many women is a synthetic hair implant. This procedure is performed with instant results in one day. Please refer to our Synthetic Implant page. A tolerance test of fibres must be carried out prior to a full, thickening procedure is performed. This is performed under local anaesthetic in a few short hours, shampooed, blow dried and you’re finished.

Minoxidil solution is a safe treatment for women. It can be used by itself or in conjunction with the above options. Please refer to our Minoxidil page.
