The causes of hair loss are many: androgen hormones; psychosocial stress, poor nutrition, genetics, autoimmune diseases, metabolic diseases, ultraviolet light, pollution, and many others.

For Frank* it was a combination of factors; he worked in finance and felt stressed out on a daily basis – he also had a family history of hair loss on both sides with both of his uncles thinning or balding.

He had noticed hair fall and thinning on top but it was his receding temporal hairline which was causing him the most concern and over the counter medications had not really produced any visible results.

Worried that his shedding was accelerating, Frank contacted an Ashley and Martin hair loss clinic after seeing an ad on tv and has never looked back.

Diagnosed with Male Pattern Baldness, his tailored treatment program was finally giving him the results he had been hoping for and his hair began to cover the areas where he thought he had lost hair forever.

The key to successful hair regrowth is acting fast…Frank had done just this and it showed in his results.

After three years of watching his scalp gradually become more devoid of hair, Aditya* turned to the internet for help. In his early thirties, Aditya knew the likely result if he did not find a treatment that worked soon; his hair loss was following the same pattern as his father’s. Aditya had been using a coffee spray to try and stimulate his hair follicles into new growth. However, if it had been having any effect at all, it was not showing. Aditya’s hair continued to thin. After six months of mulling over the idea of treatment, Aditya contacted Ashley and Martin online.

Meeting with his consultant, Aditya spoke with her about his medical history and how the men in his family were prone to hair loss. Upon examination, his consultant could see that the pattern of loss confirmed Aditya’s suspicion that his hair loss was genetically inherited. With no underlying illnesses of overtly stressful situations impacting Aditya’s hair growth, the consultant felt Aditya would be a perfect candidate for a medical hair regrowth treatment program.

Together with Low Level Laser Therapy, a combination of oral and topical medications, herbal capsules and specially formulated scalp cleansing products would be used to slow his hair loss to a natural rate, and stimulate the follicles to grow thicker, healthier hair.

Finding the program he had signed up for at his first appointment easy to incorporate into his daily routine, Aditya was especially impressed with the results he was seeing. The old adage, ‘if something is too good to be true, it is probably too good to be true’ was certainly not true in this case. No longer self-conscious of his balding pate, Aditya was thrilled with the service and results he had received at Ashley and Martin.

Kris* had seen his son’s confidence grow over the past 8 months having been part of an Ashley and Martin RealGrowth journey. His hair had transformed and Kris was amazed at the results. Kris now too wanted a journey of his own; at 50 he was concerned he looked old before his years, it was time to make a change and feel confident about his appearance again.

Meeting with the consultant Kris felt at ease talking about the concerns he had. His hair had become thinner over the last 6 years and was now almost none existent in particular areas, especially on the crown. Kris’s had been under increased work stress recently which the consultant explained would have intensified the hair loss but the main cause would be the genetic hair loss that ran through Kris’s family, diagnosing Male Pattern Hair Loss, Norwood III vertex.

A RealGROWTH ^® medication program was recommended by Kris’s consultant involving anti-androgens and herbal agents to stop the hair loss, specially formulated scalp cleansing products to create a friendly environment for his newly growing hair and a topical solution to encourage, strong healthy hair growth. These specialized medications and therapies would be used in conjunction with low level laser therapy sessions. Already confident in the program after seeing his son’s results, but also wanting to address his hair loss now, Kris signed up straight away.

Kris came back to see his consultant for an Ashley and Martin review, four months after starting treatment. Kris’s family and friends were commenting on the difference, but it wasn’t until Kris looked at the comparison photos for himself that he realised just how much his hair had changed. Kris’s crown was already covering with new hair growth and it felt thicker and healthier all over. Kris was so pleased he had followed in his son’s footsteps to make a change to his appearance and was recommending the program to his own friends.
