Part of the management of female hair loss includes investigating any underlying causes i.e. a panel of blood tests to assess for nutritional deficiencies, medical conditions that cause hair loss etc. The complete panel of blood tests ranges from $400-$500 typically.
Correcting any underlying nutritional deficiencies has a large variability in cost, e.g. iron deficiency would be relatively cheap to treat <$1 per day vs a Zinc:Copper ratio abnormality which would involve not just dietary counselling, but also supplementing with the necessary micronutrients (possibly $60 per month or more).
Any underlying medical conditions associated with hair loss should be treated and those have varying costs attached to them as well depending on the condition.
Assuming that the blood work is pristine and shows to other nutritional, metabolic or medical conditions to treat, then we can discuss treatment purely from a 'hair loss' perspective.
a) Topical minoxidil - typically costs $60-90 per month
b) Clinically proven oral supplements that improve hair growth - $120 - $150 per month
c) Low level laser light therapy (home use device) - $1200 - $5000 one time cost depending on the device that you choose to purchase
d) In-clinic scalp treatments (depending on where you go) - $98 - $350 per session
e) Oral medication concocted for female hair loss - approximately $100 per month
f) Hair restoration surgery - please see your hair loss care provider for more details
g) HSA has recently approved a new technology used in the treatment of male and female pattern hair loss called Regenera Activa - please contact your hair loss provider for pricing details.
All in all, I recommend that you seek advise from a doctor who is keen in hair loss treatments to get a better idea about what are the appropriate solutions for your kind of hair loss, after a thorough consultation and examination.
I hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Dr Joshua Chong
