A Note From Dr Aleks
Hair concerns are often misunderstood and underdiagnosed. My experience in dermatology has shown me just how many factors can contribute to hair loss, from hormones and genetics to nutritional deficiencies and autoimmune triggers. Successful treatment starts with asking the right questions and performing a detailed assessment.
In many cases, people come to me after trying every product on the shelf without success. That’s because over-the-counter solutions often don’t address the real problem. At OLA Aesthetics, we take time to determine why your hair is thinning or falling out, then choose medical treatments that are tailored to your specific needs.

Understanding Hair Loss
Hair grows in cycles. At any given time, your follicles are in one of several phases: growth (anagen), transition (catagen), resting (telogen) or shedding (exogen). Disruption to this cycle can lead to visible hair loss or thinning.
The most common form is androgenetic alopecia, also known as male or female pattern hair loss. This condition is driven by genetic sensitivity to certain hormones and typically results in progressive thinning over time.
Other types, such as telogen effluvium, cause diffuse shedding and are often linked to recent stress, illness or life changes. Alopecia areata is an autoimmune form of hair loss that causes round, bald patches on the scalp or body. Each case is different, and accurate diagnosis is key to successful treatment.
