Dr. Jones is among the first physicians in North America to add micro follicular unit extraction (FUE) - scalpel-free hair transplants to his practice. He has been practicing from his hair transplant center in Oakville (near Toronto) Ontario for many years, but since he started using the micro follicular unit extraction technique he has become a leader in the field.

Hair loss
I am 26 y.o unmarried Female w/ no sig. med. problems, and I've been having tremendous hair loss for the past 4 months. My hair is now half of what it was origionally and I'm getting so depressed of it. I use herbal hair oil, tried Nizoral shampoo, and Loprox shampoo thinking that it was dandruff that was making my hair fall, but even after using it, i'm still loosing a good amount of hair especially on days that I shampoo, and I shampoo very gently. My self esteem has been shot down, and I feel so bad when I'm seen by those people who knew me to have good full head of hair. My CBC, CMP, Liver and thyroid tests all came back normal, so I'm really worried. Can I expect my hair to grow back?
Hi,
It sounds like you need to see an endocrinologist. If everything is normal then start on rogaine,
