What do hair loss dermatologists prescribe?

Dermatologists commonly prescribe hair loss treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and spironolactone, depending on the cause and patient profile. Minoxidil is a topical solution that promotes hair growth and is used for both men and women. Finasteride and dutasteride are oral medications typically prescribed for male pattern baldness. For women, spironolactone may be prescribed to address hormonal hair loss.

What patients say about Miiskin

Very happy with this service. Quick and easy. With someone with not the greatest insurance and super busy. This was perfect. Got my prescription next day and great advice for my condition.

I had a great experience with Miiskin – I was able to get my prescription very quickly and their app is easy to use. It was very convenient and their team is very responsive. I highly recommend them and will likely use them in the future for other skin issues.

What a technology! I was very impressed by the speed of communication with a doctor using the Miiskin app. Losing my hair has been my biggest concern, but I didn’t have the courage to reveal my bald spot to a doctor in person. Miiskin solved all my issues instantly. I just took a photo in my own room, uploaded it, and wrote about my concerns. That’s it. The best part is that without insurance, the consultation fee was much lower than any health insurance. I submitted my photo at midnight and received a prescription the very next morning. The doctor at Miiskin was very professional and empathetic, which really helped ease my emotional distress. Although I’m just at the beginning stage of my treatment and haven’t seen significant results yet, I feel reassured and supported. I will definitely upload my progress in 3 to 4 months to show my appreciation for the prescription from Miiskin.

My dermatologist was extremely quick, reviewed my consultation request within 2hrs and I had my Rx the next day! The Miiskin team also responds within minutes and are very polite and communicated concisely. I’ll never make a in person appointment again after experiencing this outstanding and affordable telehealth service!

Quick response from the dermatologist — I wanted a fast turnaround for a skin concern that would be more immediate than going through health insurance, making an appointment, traveling to the doctor.

Frequently asked questions about hair loss treatment online

Can I get my insurance to cover the consultation fee?

Very likely not. Providers on the Miiskin platform charge as little as $59 for new patient consultations, with potentially lower rates for subsequent consultations, making them affordable even without insurance coverage. Unfortunately, insurance coverage for online consultations is still limited in many areas. Paying the low consultation fee out of pocket eliminates complex insurance paperwork and potential delays, ensuring a smoother and faster process.

Can alopecia be diagnosed through a photograph?

Yes, according to Dr. Eric Howell, board-certified dermatologist, in most cases, it is possible to diagnose and treat alopecia with photos and a written clinical questionnaire.

Can I get treatment for alopecia (hair loss) online?

Yes, you can get effective treatment to reduce hair loss and stimulate hair growth online, since most types of hair loss can be diagnosed and treated with an image and the treatment usually requires oral and topical medications.  

What is the best treatment for alopecia areata?

Dr. Howell says that the best treatment for alopecia areata depending on the severity often includes oral and topical minoxidil or immunotherapy. He says that you may also need corticosteroid injections or topical corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and stimulate hair growth. The effectiveness of treatments can vary, and it’s important to consult with a dermatologist for a personalized approach.

What is the best treatment for alopecia in women?

Dr. Howell says it depends on the type of hair loss, for female pattern baldness, treatments like minoxidil or hormonal therapies (such as oral contraceptives and spironolactone), may be effective  especially if hormonal imbalances are contributing to hair loss. For alopecia areata, immunotherapy may be recommended. Regardless of what type of hair loss you have, Dr. Howell says that early intervention and treatment with a dermatologist are essential to stop hair loss.

What is the best treatment for hair loss in men?

Dr. Howell says the best treatment for hair loss in men often includes medications like minoxidil, finasteride or a combination of both. Minoxidil can help stimulate hair growth, while finasteride can reduce hair loss by blocking the hormone responsible for shrinking hair follicles. There are also some procedures that can be done at a dermatology clinic to supplement oral and topical medication.

How can alopecia be cured naturally?

There is no natural cure for alopecia, but certain lifestyle changes and natural remedies may help reduce hair loss to some extent. Preventing vitamin deficiency as well as reducing stress through relaxation techniques is important for hair loss. Using a derma roller on your scalp or rosemary oil to stimulate hair growth may also help.

What can be done to stop alopecia?

To stop or slow down alopecia, it is essential to identify and treat the underlying cause. This might involve medications like minoxidil or finasteride, dietary changes to address nutritional deficiencies, managing stress, and adopting a gentle hair care routine. Consulting a dermatologist for a tailored treatment plan is recommended.

What to do when you have alopecia?

Dr. Howell says that when you are experiencing any type of hair loss (alopecia), it is important to seek medical advice from a dermatologist as soon as possible to minimize hair loss and stimulate hair growth. They can provide a proper diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatments. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, reducing stress, and using prescribed medications is essential to manage the condition.

What is the best vitamin to prevent hair loss?

Preventing vitamin deficiency is important for hair loss. Biotin (Vitamin B7) is often recommended to help prevent hair loss and promote hair health, although biotin supplementation can cause some routine lab tests to be inaccurate, so make sure to notify your physician if you are taking this and lab testing is necessary . Other important vitamins include Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Vitamin A, as well as minerals like iron and zinc. A balanced diet or supplements, as advised by a healthcare provider, can support overall hair health.

What can I do to grow hair?

Dr. Howell says that medication such as oral or topical minoxidil can also stimulate hair growth. Depending on the cause of hair loss, hormonal therapy such as finasteride (for men) or spironolactone (for women) may also help, as well as topical or intralesional corticosteroids.

What worsens alopecia?

Dr. Howell says that factors that can worsen alopecia include stress, poor diet, certain medications, hormonal imbalances, and inadequate hair products. Avoiding these factors and following a dermatologist-recommended treatment plan can help manage the condition.

What is the best pill for hair growth?

Dr. Howell says that minoxidil and finasteride are two of the most effective oral medications for hair growth. Although they have very different mechanisms of action. Finasteride works by reducing the levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone that contributes to hair loss. Minoxidil is a vasodilator that increases blood flow, leading to the stimulation of hair growth. However, both medications should only be used under medical  supervision by a healthcare provider due to potential side effects.

How to know if alopecia is due to stress?

Dr. Howell says that the type of alopecia due to stress or severe illness  (also known as telogen effluvium) is typically characterized by diffuse hair shedding across the scalp. A dermatologist can help diagnose stress-related alopecia by reviewing your medical history, stress levels, and a visual examination.
