Why Hair Loss Happens

Hair loss and thinning occur for a variety of reasons. Understanding the underlying cause helps us choose the most effective treatment:

  • Genetics: Androgenetic alopecia is inherited and can cause receding hairlines, widening parts or overall thinning.
  • Hormonal changes: Shifts in hormones during pregnancy, menopause or thyroid disorders often trigger shedding.
  • Nutritional deficiencies: Lack of key vitamins and minerals (such as iron, vitamin D and protein) can weaken hair.
  • Stress and illness: Chronic stress, severe illness or surgery can push follicles into a resting phase, causing diffuse shedding.
  • Medical conditions: Conditions such as alopecia areata or lupus can lead to patchy hair loss.

Male vs. Female Hair‑Loss Patterns

Men and women experience hair loss differently due to hormonal and genetic factors:

  • Male: Often experiences receding hairlines, thinning at the crown, and bald spots.
  • Female: Usually notice diffuse thinning across the scalp, widening parts, and overall reduced density.

Our treatments are personalised to address these patterns effectively.

Differences Between Male and Female Hair Loss Pattern

Hair loss affects both men and women but presents differently due to hormonal variations and genetics.

  • In men, hair loss typically appears as a receding hairline or bald patches, commonly known as male pattern baldness, triggered largely by genetic factors and hormones such as DHT.
  • In women, hair thinning is usually more diffuse, spreading evenly across the scalp, often due to factors like hormonal fluctuations, stress, and nutritional deficiencies.

Recommended Hair Loss Treatments for Men and Women

Gender Common Hair Loss Patterns Recommended Treatments
Male Receding hairline, thinning at the crown (Male Pattern Baldness) PRP Therapy, Exosome Therapy, Fotona Hair Restoration
Female Diffuse thinning, widening hair part, overall reduced hair volume (Female Pattern Hair Loss) PRP Therapy, Meso Injections, Exosome Therapy

At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, we offer targeted hair restoration treatments tailored specifically to address these unique differences, helping both men and women regain thicker, fuller hair.

What does a hair‑loss treatment session involve?

Each appointment begins with a short consultation to review your progress and ensure you’re comfortable. We prepare the treatment area, apply a topical anaesthetic if necessary and perform the procedure. Most sessions last 30–60 minutes.
Individuals with thinning hair, early‑stage pattern baldness or widening part lines typically respond well. We also treat clients whose hair loss is due to hormonal changes, stress or nutritional deficiencies. During your consultation we’ll determine the best plan based on your medical history and goals.
You may see a reduction in shedding within the first month and visible thickening in 3–6 months. Some therapies, like microneedling with serums, may improve scalp texture within a couple of weeks, while others take longer to show fuller growth.
Results can last from several months to several years. Maintenance sessions every 6–12 months, along with proper scalp care and a balanced diet, help sustain the benefits.
Yes. Our therapies are non‑surgical and have a low risk of complications. We use sterile equipment and follow strict protocols to minimise risk. Side‑effects like temporary redness or swelling resolve quickly.
Most clients describe the procedures as very tolerable. Topical anaesthetic cream reduces sensation during injections or microneedling. Laser therapy is painless, while exosome and peptide injections may cause mild stinging that subsides within minutes.
Yes. You can return to work or exercise straight away after most treatments. For microneedling, we recommend avoiding makeup and direct sun exposure for 24–48 hours to allow your scalp to heal.
Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or mild bruising at the injection site are the most frequently reported side‑effects. Rarely, laser therapy can cause light scalp itchiness. These effects are short‑lived and typically resolve within a few days.
Keep your hair and scalp clean and free from styling products. Avoid blood‑thinning medications (such as aspirin or ibuprofen) for a few days beforehand, unless otherwise directed by your doctor. Stay hydrated and avoid tanning or harsh scalp treatments.
We suggest avoiding heavy sweating, hot showers or saunas for 24 hours. Protect your scalp from sun exposure, and use a gentle shampoo. We’ll provide a complete aftercare guide tailored to your treatment.
Yes. Combining therapies often leads to superior results. For instance, PRP can be combined with microneedling or laser treatments to maximise growth factors and improve absorption. We’ll design a combination approach based on your individual needs.
The number of sessions varies by treatment and individual. PRP therapy typically involves three sessions a month apart; laser therapy may require 20–30 sessions over several months; exosomes usually involve one or two sessions. We offer payment plans and will discuss costs and scheduling during your consultation.
