Hair Loss & Alopecia Treatment with a Dermatologist
Hair loss can be distressing and often difficult to understand without the right medical guidance. Whether you’re experiencing gradual thinning, sudden shedding, or scalp discomfort, identifying the underlying cause is essential for effective treatment.
Dr. Dawn Queen is a board-certified dermatologist and hair restoration specialist who provides evidence-based diagnosis and treatment for hair loss and scalp conditions. Her approach focuses on understanding the root cause and creating personalized treatment plans designed to support long-term hair health.
Hair loss can occur for many different reasons, and each type requires a different approach to treatment. Common causes include:
Androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss)
Telogen effluvium (stress-related shedding)
Inflammatory scalp conditions
Traction alopecia from hairstyles
Hormonal changes
Nutritional deficiencies
A proper evaluation is key to determining which type of hair loss you are experiencing.
Common Causes of Hair Loss
Signs You May Need a Hair Loss Specialist
If you’re noticing any of the following, it may be time to see a dermatologist:
• Ongoing thinning for more than 3–6 months
• Increased hair shedding when washing or styling
• Visible scalp or reduced hair density
• Itching, redness, or scalp discomfort
• Patches of hair loss
Early intervention can help protect hair follicles and improve treatment outcomes.
Types of Hair Loss We Treat
Androgenetic Alopecia
1
A common form of hair loss characterized by gradual thinning, often affecting the crown or hairline. It typically develops over time and may have a genetic component.
Telogen Effluvium
2
A temporary form of hair shedding usually triggered by stress, illness, medications, or hormonal changes. Hair growth often resumes once the underlying cause is addressed.
Inflammatory Hair Loss
3
Hair loss accompanied by scalp symptoms such as itching, pain, or redness. These conditions require timely medical evaluation to prevent potential long-term or permanent damage.
Traction Alopecia
