There are few things more frustrating than losing your hair. You’re finding hair in the shower, on the floor, on your pillow, and on your sink. Everywhere but on your head. For many people, losing hair is not a passing phase. Unless you do something about it, you may eventually go bald. The good news is that you have some hair regrowth treatment options available to you. If you are considering taking steps to fight your hair loss, you will need some good information to get you started.
What Causes Hair Loss?
Both men and women can experience thinning hair at any stage of their lives. Other than correctable nutritional deficiencies or scalp problems like seborrheic dermatitis, most hair loss comes down to hormones. Women tend to experience thinning hair around the time of menopause, while men typically begin losing theirs earlier due to the effects of a sex hormone called DHT.
The male sex hormone testosterone is converted into DHT in men. Some men have a genetic susceptibility to this hormone, causing their hair follicles to become sensitive to it. This can lead to a lack of blood flow and subsequent scarring of the hair follicles. Hair follicles that are affected in this way become gradually miniaturized, producing smaller and finer hairs. Eventually, they go completely dormant and stop producing hair.
Am I a Good Candidate for Hair Regrowth Treatment?
We can help determine if you would make a strong candidate for hair regrowth treatment at your consultation. We will have certain questions like when your hair loss started, any medications you are taking allergies you may have, and what your diet is like.
We offer PRP (platelet-rich plasma) for hair regrowth. This treatment is minimally-invasive and non-surgical, and the best part it is that it doesn’t involve any chemicals or foreign substances to help your hair growth. Rather, it uses a component of your own blood to stimulate the follicles to start growing hair again.
For the treatment we draw a small amount of blood from you and then spin it in a centrifuge to separate the PRP from the rest of the components. Once this has been accomplished, the PRP is then injected into your scalp. It takes a few weeks for the follicles to start growing hair again, and you may need more than one treatment to reach your desired results.

Survey

Category: reveiwsI have been a patient of Dr.Jacobs for over 20 years,,Over that time period he has discovered, treated, and has removed several skin cancers from me. I can clearly state that if it weren’t for him I probably would not be alive today..His staff has always been the most professional and his clinical environment is always immaculate. I would recommend anyone with dermatological issues from psoriasis to melanoma to consult with Dr. Michael Jacobs.

Category: reveiwsI had the best experience with Dr. Jacobs. Went to see two doctors who misdiagnosed a rash I had on my ankle. Dr. Jacobs identified it within seconds, prescribed a medication and it started to clear up two days later. The staff is wonderful and I would go back anytime.
Satisfied Patient
by Michel Orban
Category: reveiwsFor over 30 years, Dr. Jacobs has treated me. He is cordial, friendly and listens. Most recently, I had a severe case of bedbug bites that I got in Portugal. Literally within minutes of texting him with photos, he corrected the diagnosis I'd been given at a local hospital clinic and told me the medicines I needed. While I saw two doctors in Europe, it was Dr. Jacobs who helped me control my anxiety. For over three weeks, he communicated frequently with me - reconfirming what I was doing was correct and reassuring me the bites would get better, Dr. Jacobs is my go to! He is thoughtful, direct and clear in conveying his diagnosis. I am grateful to him for his care and appreciate all he has done for me over the years.

Category: reveiwsI have been a patient of Dr. Jacob's for over a year and although I went for one procedure, I kept coming due to their outstanding and attentive service. Their facility is very clean and the staff is very professional. Their equipment is top of the line. I've had hair removal and lasers done that was totally painless. I highly recommend this facility.
Too Modest to Publicize Himself

Category: reveiwsThe wonderful work the Doctor did restoring a freshness to my face and neck was enough to convince 5 women pictured in The Social Register to make appointments of their own. Whether socially, for a polished image at work, or for health and wellness to take personal care seriously, this is the doctor to visit. NOT one who sells her services on TV talk shows. This office is not a Botox factory assembly line. When comparing notes, we women agreed that each was treated uniquely as specialized treatments were matched with care and a sure sense of what would be pleasing and successful with each patient. May I note as well that there are quite a number of men in the office seeking treatment as well!. This is a board certified physician who teaches his skills at Cornell. It goes without saying that his professional demeanor causes a patient to trust his judgement.
