When to See a Hair Doctor in India
Consult a dermatologist or hair restoration surgeon if hair loss persists, bald patches develop, or scalp irritation continues despite basic care. Medical evaluation can confirm or rule out conditions such as alopecia areata, androgenetic alopecia, infections, or autoimmune disorders. Alloroots offers surgical and non-surgical options, including female hair loss treatment, PRP, Growth Factor Concentrate (GFC), and ACell+PRP therapies tailored to each patient.
Initial consultations generally last 30-45 minutes, include digital scalp imaging, and end with a treatment planning discussion.
