Androgenetic Alopecia Treatment in Myeongdong, Seoul

Personalised care for hereditary male- and female-pattern hair loss, combining medication, scalp injections and regenerative therapy.

What is androgenetic alopecia treatment? Androgenetic alopecia is hereditary hair loss, commonly called male- or female-pattern baldness. Treatment may include PRP (platelet-rich plasma), exosome therapy, mesotherapy, laser therapy, topical solutions or prescription medicines such as finasteride or minoxidil. Together these nourish the follicles, block hormonal triggers and stimulate growth to slow or partly reverse thinning.

How it works

How androgenetic alopecia treatment works

In pattern hair loss, hormonal triggers gradually shrink genetically sensitive follicles, so hair becomes finer and sparser at the crown, hairline or parting. Treatment aims to block these triggers, nourish the follicles and stimulate natural growth.

Prescription medicines such as finasteride or minoxidil work on the hormonal and growth side, while in-clinic PRP or exosome injections, mesotherapy and laser therapy support the follicles directly. Sessions take 30–60 minutes with minimal discomfort; visible improvement often appears within a few weeks and builds over months.

FAQ

Androgenetic Alopecia Treatment: FAQ

Straight answers to the questions guests ask most.

What is androgenetic alopecia?

It is hereditary hair loss driven by hormonal sensitivity of the follicles, known as male- or female-pattern baldness. It typically progresses gradually.

Can it be cured?

It cannot be permanently cured, but treatment can slow it and often improve density. Stopping treatment usually allows thinning to continue, so long-term care matters.

Do I need medication?

Medicines such as finasteride or minoxidil are commonly used. Your doctor will advise whether they suit you; finasteride is not used in pregnancy or by women who may become pregnant.

When will I see results?

Visible improvements can often be seen within a few weeks of in-clinic care, with continued change over several months.
