Question: Is Hair-Line Hair Loss Treatable?
QUESTION: I’ve been told that it’s possible to stop hair loss around the top of the head (known as the crown I believe) but not if you have a receding hair-line. This is worrying for me as in my case, as well as thinning around the crown, my hair-line seems to be beginning to recede. Is this true?
ANSWER: It’s true that the crown is generally an easier area to treat than the hair-line. Treatment courses consisting of Propecia and minoxidil 5% + MPG can be beneficial for this. For the hair-line Belgravia produces an extra-strength formulation of minoxidil with an added DHT inhibitor. This is minoxidil 12.5% + azelaic acid cream - designed to target specific areas of ’stubborn’ hair loss, such as the temples or the crown (in the case of very fine hair or almost-bald patches). We’ve found minoxidil 12.5% + AA to be the first product for hair loss to be highly successful in treating the hair-line and other hard-to-treat areas - with many patients very satisfied!
Here’s some more information on minoxidil 12.5% + azelaic acid
