Hair Loss Treatment for Eastbourne Patients
Consultant-led diagnosis for sudden shedding, thinning and alopecia, a short journey from Eastbourne.
Sudden or diffuse hair shedding, where hair comes out more than usual across the whole scalp, often has a specific and treatable trigger, but only if it is properly diagnosed. Eastbourne patients travel to our Matlock Road clinic in Brighton for that specialist assessment.
Hair shedding and thinning
Diffuse shedding can follow illness, stress, hormonal change or nutritional factors, and it is different from pattern hair loss, which is why the diagnosis matters. We treat hair shedding alongside male and female pattern loss, alopecia areata, scarring hair loss and scalp conditions.
The starting point is always identifying the cause using advanced hair and scalp diagnostics rather than guessing at a fix.
What to expect at your appointment
Your consultation covers the timeline and pattern of your shedding and any triggers, followed by a close examination of the hair and scalp. You leave with a clear diagnosis and realistic options.
Treatments available
Depending on the cause, treatment may include medical and prescription options or procedural treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), aimed at the underlying problem.
Why choose Experts in Skin & Hair
Hair and scalp care is led by consultants with a specific interest in the area, including clinical lead Dr Paul Farrant, and our team holds European Hair Research Society and British Hair & Nail Society memberships.
Getting to Brighton from Eastbourne
Appointments are held at our Matlock Road clinic in Brighton, 10b Matlock Road (BN1 5BF), the site for all hair and scalp consultations, around forty minutes along the A27. No referral is needed.
Telogen effluvium and diffuse shedding
Telogen effluvium is a common form of diffuse shedding, where more hairs than usual enter the resting phase and fall out a couple of months after a trigger such as illness, stress, surgery or hormonal change. It usually recovers, but a specialist can confirm the cause and rule out anything else.
Because diffuse shedding can look similar to early pattern loss, an accurate diagnosis matters so you are reassured where reassurance is due and treated where treatment is needed.
