Hair loss

Hair in TCM is understood as the "flower of the Blood" — its quality reflects Blood adequacy, and by extension the Kidney and Liver. Different hair-loss patterns map to different underlying deficiencies, and the treatment strategy shifts accordingly. Results are always gradual because hair growth cycles are slow.

Scalp acupuncture, systemic acupuncture for the underlying pattern, and consistent herbal support form the treatment plan. Realistic timelines: 3 months to see the first differences, 6+ months to see full response. For patients on prescription treatments (finasteride, minoxidil) we work alongside.
