Hair Loss Treatment in Haywards Heath

Scarring alopecia needs prompt, specialist attention to protect the hair that remains. We also treat male and female pattern loss, alopecia areata, diffuse shedding, and scalp conditions such as seborrhoeic dermatitis, folliculitis and scalp psoriasis that can drive hair loss.

Getting the diagnosis right is everything here, since the treatment for scarring hair loss is very different from that for pattern thinning.

Your consultation covers the pattern and history of your hair loss, followed by a close examination of the hair and scalp using advanced diagnostics, so the cause is identified before any treatment begins.

Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include medical and prescription options or procedural treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP), aimed at stabilising and improving the condition.

Hair and scalp care is led by consultants with a specific interest in the field, including clinical lead Dr Paul Farrant, and our team holds European Hair Research Society and British Hair & Nail Society memberships.

Hair and scalp consultations for Haywards Heath and mid-Sussex patients take place at our Matlock Road clinic in Brighton (10b Matlock Road, BN1 5BF), the nearest clinic offering full hair care. Nuffield Health Haywards Heath does not run hair clinics, so hair loss is seen at Matlock Road, with no referral needed.

In scarring alopecia the follicle itself is damaged, and once that happens the hair in that area will not regrow, so the priority is protecting the hair you still have. That makes prompt, accurate diagnosis genuinely important rather than something to put off.

A specialist can distinguish scarring from non-scarring hair loss, which look similar to the untrained eye but need very different treatment, and act to stabilise the condition.

Mid-Sussex patients can book a hair loss consultation directly at our Matlock Road clinic in Brighton, with no referral, and see a consultant from the outset. Fees, and the likely cost of any treatment, are confirmed before your appointment.
