Traction Alopecia Treatment

Precision protocol for hair loss caused by mechanical tension. Combining follicle reactivation with scalp healing and lifestyle modification to restore hair health.

Understanding Traction Alopecia

Traction alopecia is hair loss caused by prolonged mechanical tension on hair follicles. It's most common in individuals who wear tight hairstyles such as braids, cornrows, weaves, or tight buns. The constant pulling gradually damages the follicle, leading to hair loss along the hairline and scalp margins.

Key Characteristics:

  • • Hair loss along hairline, temples, or areas of tension
  • • Gradual onset over months or years
  • • Often reversible if caught early
  • • Can become permanent if tension continues
  • • More common in individuals with textured hair

Comprehensive Blood Diagnostics

Your £150 consultation includes blood testing to assess scalp health and identify any underlying nutritional deficiencies that may be slowing recovery. We test for:

Nutritional Status

Ferritin, B12, folate, zinc, vitamin D to ensure optimal follicle recovery capacity

Scalp Health Markers

Inflammatory markers (CRP, ESR) to assess scalp inflammation from tension damage

Protein & Amino Acids

Total protein, albumin, amino acid profile to support hair structure regeneration

Hormone Balance

Thyroid hormones, DHT to rule out concurrent hormonal hair loss

Expected Timeline

Weeks 1-2: Tension Relief

You stop wearing tight hairstyles. Scalp inflammation begins to reduce. Follicles begin recovering from mechanical stress.

Weeks 2-8: Follicle Activation

Treatment begins stimulating dormant follicles. Scalp tenderness resolves. Hair shedding stabilises.

Months 2-4: New Growth

Fine new hair appears along the hairline and tension areas. Hair becomes thicker and stronger with each treatment cycle.

Months 4-6: Full Recovery

Hairline fills in significantly. Hair density returns to pre-traction levels. Most clients achieve 80-90% regrowth.
