Effective combination therapy for telogen hair loss

Abstract

Background. Telogen hair loss is one of the most common forms of alopecia, associated with a disruption in the phases of the hair growth cycle – specifically, the premature transition of the hair follicle into the telogen phase. The primary causes are the influence of triggering factors such as increased stress levels and previous illnesses. The main goal of therapy is to prolong the anagen phase and stimulate hair growth through the use of topical peptides and a multivitamin complex.Objective. To study the effectiveness of a hair growth restoration method in the treatment of telogen alopecia using cosmetic hair growth products and dietary supplements.Methods. The study involved 20 patients diagnosed with telogen alopecia who received treatment with the topical cosmetic products «Time to Grow» and the dietary supplement «Thick and Strong Hair» for 9 weeks. The effectiveness of the treatment was assessed at 3, 6, and 9 weeks after the start of therapy.Results. The analysis of the study showed statistically significant changes in trichoscopy indicators in patients with telogen alopecia, demonstrating the effectiveness of using hair growth cosmetics (p<0.05). At the final assessment point, a reduction in hair loss was observed in 100 % of the subjects, along with improvements in hair quality and volume. A survey evaluating the participants’ subjective experiences demonstrated satisfaction with the treatment and adherence to the therapy.Conclusion. The use of hair growth products and the dietary supplement «Time to Grow» has proven effectiveness in the treatment of telogen hair loss.
