Hair loss affects millions of men and women, often causing significant emotional distress and loss of confidence. Whether you are noticing gradual thinning, a receding hairline, or sudden patches of hair loss, early diagnosis and intervention are key to achieving the best outcomes.
At Kinvara Private Hospital in Rotherham, our specialist doctors provide comprehensive hair loss assessment and treatment. Using advanced diagnostic techniques including trichoscopy and blood tests, we identify the underlying cause of your hair loss and create a personalised treatment plan that may include medical therapies, PRP injections, or referral for surgical options.

Understanding Hair Loss and Its Causes
Hair loss can result from numerous causes, and accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. Androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) is the most common cause, affecting both men and women and driven by genetic sensitivity to hormones. In men, this typically presents as a receding hairline and crown thinning; in women, it usually appears as diffuse thinning across the crown while the frontal hairline is preserved.
Other causes include alopecia areata, an autoimmune condition causing patchy hair loss; telogen effluvium, where a significant proportion of hairs enter the resting phase following stress, illness, or hormonal changes; and nutritional deficiencies, thyroid disorders, or iron deficiency that can all contribute to hair thinning.
At Kinvara Hospital, our diagnostic approach includes detailed scalp examination with trichoscopy (a specialized microscope for hair and scalp analysis), blood tests to check for underlying conditions, and a thorough medical history. This comprehensive assessment ensures we identify the correct diagnosis and recommend the most appropriate treatment for your specific type of hair loss.

Treatment Timeline and Expectations
Recovery Timeline
Initial Consultation
Comprehensive assessment including scalp analysis and blood tests if indicated. You will leave with a clear diagnosis and treatment plan. Medical treatments such as minoxidil can be started immediately.
Month 1-3
If starting medical treatments, early shedding may occur as weaker hairs are replaced. This is normal and temporary. PRP patients typically have 3 initial sessions spaced 4 weeks apart.
Month 3-6
Early signs of improvement become visible for responsive patients. Hair may appear thicker and new growth may be observed. Continuation of treatment is essential for ongoing benefit.
Month 6-12
Maximum benefit from treatments is typically seen at this stage. Maintenance therapy is recommended to preserve results. Further PRP sessions may be scheduled every 4-6 months.
Key Recovery Points
- Be patient; hair growth is slow and results take 3-6 months to become visible
- Consistency with treatment is crucial for success
- After PRP, avoid washing hair for 24 hours and avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hours
- Report any side effects or concerns to your dermatologist promptly
