COMMON HAIR LOSS CAUSES
We can lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day, often without noticing. Hair loss isn’t usually
anything to be worried about, but occasionally it can be a sign of a medical condition. Some
types of hair loss are permanent, like male and female pattern baldness. This type of hair
loss usually runs in the family. Other types of hair loss may be temporary.
Male-pattern hair loss (MPHL)
Also known as androgenic alopecia and male pattern baldness, is hair loss that occurs due
to an underlying susceptibility of hair follicles to shrinkage due to the influence of androgenic
hormones.
The norwood scale is the most common used scale for self diagnosis of hair loss/hair
thinning ranging from stages 1-7. It is a good indication of baldness for consultations and
treatments that may be required. Below is an overview showing the different stages of hair
loss and hair thinning.
Whatever stage of hair loss/hair thinning you have suffered Schon aesthetic is here to help
non-surgically replace your hair.

THE NORWOOD SCALE
FEMALE PATTERN HAIR LOSS
Do women lose their hair
in a similar pattern to men?
The Hamilton-Norwood scale is a common measurement tool used to measure baldness in
men for those suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia in the form of Male Pattern Baldness,
but what about women? Do women lose their hair in a similar pattern to men?
Though it is true that some women lose hair in a similar manner as men, this is not true of all
women.
The Ludwig and Savin Scale is intended as a measurement tool for women who suffer from
Androgenetic Alopecia in the form of female pattern baldness to determine their level of
balding. Â It is a good indication of baldness for consultations and treatments that may be
required.
Whatever stage of hair loss/hair thinning you have suffered Schon aesthetic is here to help.
THE LUDWIG AND SAVIN SCALE
Alopecia affects males and females of all ages and can commence at any stage of one’s life.
It can vary in appearance from tiny random bald patches to total baldness. Although the
condition does not cause the sufferer any physical pain, it can be the source of deep
emotional distress.
Here at Schon aesthetic we offer a free hair loss diagnosis appointment to all clients.
Our Alopecia treatments are 100% safe and side effect free.
There are different forms of Alopecia. Listed below are the main types and their
characteristics:
ALOPECIA AREATA (AA)
Alopecia Areata is an auto-immune condition which causes patchy hair loss. It can result in a
single bald patch or extensive patches. This is a common condition, where normal hair
growth is interrelated with totally bald, circular or oval patches. Generally AA can begin
during childhood and reoccur throughout a person’s lifetime. In many cases, the condition is
confined to one or two spots, but it can spread and become Alopecia Totalis.
ALOPECIA TOTALIS (AT)
Alopecia Totalis is a more advanced form of Alopecia Areata which results in total loss of
hair. In rare cases, Alopecia Totalis can become Alopecia Universalis, where the hair is lost
completely on the head, face and body.
ALOPECIA UNIVERSALIS (AU)
Alopecia Universalis is the most advanced form of Alopecia Areata which results in total loss
of all hair on the body, including eyelashes and eyebrows.
ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA (AGA)
Also known as male or female pattern baldness. It is a thinning of the hair to an almost
transparent state, in both men or women. It is thought to be a hereditary form of hair loss
and is the most common type of progressive hair loss.
TRACTION ALOPECIA
Traction Alopecia is usually due to excessive pulling or tension on hair shafts as a result of
certain hair styles. Hair loss depends on the way the hair is being pulled.

THINNING HAIR
Telogen effluvium (hair loss), is where the hair shedding cycle becomes stuck at this stage
for too long resulting in significant hair thinning all over the scalp. This is more noticeable
when you wash your hair. You will not have patches of hair loss (bald patches) but rather a
generalised thinning.
The causes of telogen effluvium can be a major stressful event for example, childbirth or
major surgery can keep your hair cycle stuck in the telogen phase. At Schon aesthetic we
simply trigger the growth factors when the hair is stuck in this phase to guide the follicles
back into their correct growth cycle.
PREGNANCY HAIR LOSS
Telogen Effluvium is the excessive shedding of hair that occurs one to five months following
pregnancy. This is not uncommon, as it affects somewhere between 40 to 50% of women.
Hair loss that is connected to pregnancy usually occurs after delivery. During pregnancy, an
increased number of hair follicles go into the resting phase, which is part of the normal hair
loss cycle.
The most common period of hair loss occurs approximately three months after delivery. The
rise in hormones during pregnancy keeps you from losing your hair.
Hair loss may result from any one or more of the following:
Discontinuation of birth control pills or any other hormonal type of birth control method
-Miscarriage or stillbirth
-Hormonal imbalance
Along with a lot of other changes that occur as part of pregnancy, hormones can often cause
hair to fall out. Hair loss during pregnancy differs greatly – what may be minimal in one
woman, may be very noticeable in another. Hair loss really does vary from pregnancy to
pregnancy, even in the same individual.
Schon aesthetic is experienced in treating all forms of hair loss under whatever conditions,

conditions, and restore your confidence T:0121 769 1433
