In this supplement, the multifactorial factors that deregulate hair physiology are described. This includes:
- Inflammation and oxidative stress
- Androgen hormones
- Environmental and genetic triggers
- Psycho-emotional stress
It is argued that a paradigm shift in hair loss treatment is necessary, towards multi-targeting therapeutic approaches that address these diverse and complex factors.
The supplement also notes that multi-modal approaches for the treatment of hair loss- including platelet-rich plasma, low-level laser light and nutraceuticals – are emerging as viable treatment options for hair loss.
