At Oxona Health, our dermatology team offers a comprehensive, medically led approach to diagnosing and treating hair loss. We combine specialist dermatology expertise with personalised treatment plans, evidence-based procedures and ongoing support to help patients understand the cause of their hair loss and take effective steps towards regrowth and scalp health.
Consultations with our Consultant Dermatologists for hair loss are available in Oxford and St Albans, with advanced procedures and hair transplant surgery available at our St Albans clinic.
Hair Conditions We Treat
Hair loss can occur for many different reasons. Some causes are temporary and reversible, while others require longer-term management. Our dermatologists specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of hair and scalp conditions, including:
- Androgenetic Alopecia – Common hereditary hair thinning affecting both men and women.
- Telogen Effluvium – Stress-related hair loss, illness or hormones.
- Alopecia Areata – Sudden patchy hair loss caused by an autoimmune response.
- Post-partum hair loss
- Scarring (cicatricial) alopecia – Hair loss caused by damage to the hair follicles.
- Traction alopecia – Hair loss or damage caused by pulling your hair too tightly e.g. too tight ponytails, braids, dreadlocks, or from wearing tight headwear.
- Scalp & Skin Conditions – Including psoriasis, eczema, and fungal infections contributing to hair loss.
- Hair loss after Chemotherapy
Early and accurate diagnosis is the most important step in effective treatment. Our dermatology team will assess your hair loss in detail and design a personalised treatment strategy based on the underlying cause.
Your Hair Loss Consultation
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation with one of our Consultant Dermatologists. During this appointment we take time to understand the full picture of your hair and scalp health.
Your consultation may include:
- A detailed discussion about your hair loss history
- Assessment of recent changes in health, stress or lifestyle
- Review of medications and medical history
- Examination of the scalp and hair follicles
- Discussion of family history of hair loss
Where appropriate, we may also recommend additional investigations to help identify underlying causes. These may include:
- Blood tests
- Hormone testing
- Screening for thyroid or metabolic changes
- Hair analysis, trichogram or scalp biopsy.
This holistic, medically informed approach helps us build a clear and personalised treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.
A Personalised Treatment Plan
Following your consultation, your dermatologist will create a structured treatment plan designed specifically for you.
Your plan may include:
- Medical treatments to support hair regrowth
- Evidence-based dermatological procedures
- Lifestyle and nutritional guidance
- Scalp care recommendations
- Follow-up appointments to monitor progress
We place a strong emphasis on realistic timelines and clear next steps. Hair growth takes time, and our team will guide you through each stage of the process with regular reviews to assess progress and adjust treatment if needed.
Hair Loss Treatments We Offer
Depending on the diagnosis, your treatment plan may include one or more of the following approaches:
Medical Hair Loss Treatments
- Prescription Medication – Clinically proven options for stimulating growth and slowing loss.
- Topical & Oral Solutions – Tailored to your condition and tolerance.
- Lifestyle & Holistic approach – Supporting hair regrowth from within.
- Specialist Referrals – Where advanced dermatological or surgical options are required.
Scalp and Regenerative Treatments
Procedures designed to improve scalp health, stimulate follicles and support stronger hair growth.
For suitable candidates with pattern hair loss, hair transplantation can restore areas of thinning or permanent hair loss using advanced surgical techniques.
Clinic Locations
Hair loss consultations with our Consultant Dermatologists are available at:
- Oxford
- St Albans
These consultations include diagnosis, personalised treatment planning and ongoing management.
Hair transplant procedures are currently available exclusively at our St Albans clinic.
Our team will discuss whether surgical treatment may be appropriate during your consultation.
Treatment Timeline & Follow-Up
Hair growth cycles mean that meaningful results often develop over several months. To support this process, we include structured follow-up within your care plan.
Your dermatologist will typically schedule review appointments to:
- Assess response to treatment
- Adjust medications or therapies if needed
- Monitor scalp health
- Provide ongoing guidance and support
This ensures your treatment remains effective and aligned with your goals.
