Women can experience changes in their hair and skin at various life stages, including but not limited to post-delivery. These changes often involve variations in skin texture, acne, and either hair loss or increased hair growth. Hormonal shifts are a significant factor behind these changes, affecting not just postpartum women but also those going through different phases like menstrual cycles and menopause.

These physical changes can have emotional repercussions, affecting self-esteem and overall well-being. The emotional toll can be particularly challenging for those experiencing these shifts for the first time, regardless of the life stage they are in.

Managing Hair & Skin Changes for Women

FemStrong offers a multi-disciplinary approach to managing these changes:

1. Plastic Surgery Consultations: Our plastic surgeon can offer consultations for skin-related concerns that may require surgical intervention or other aesthetic procedures, such as toxin injections for wrinkles or fine lines.
2. PRP for Hair Loss: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an innovative treatment for hair loss. This procedure involves drawing a small amount of your blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets, and then injecting it into the scalp to stimulate hair growth.
3. Nutritional Guidance: Nutrition plays a significant role in the health of your skin and hair. Our dietitians offer personalized nutritional advice aimed at improving these conditions.
4. Vitamin and Mineral IV Drips: These intravenous therapies can provide essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream, potentially improving the health of your skin and hair.
5. Psychological Support: Our clinical psychologists are available to help you navigate the emotional aspects of these physical changes, offering coping strategies and emotional support.
6. Integrated Care: Our strength lies in our integrated approach. You might consult our plastic surgeon for aesthetic concerns while also receiving nutritional guidance and IV therapies to improve your skin and hair from within.
7.  Hormonal Basis of Acne: Understanding the hormonal basis of acne allows us to approach its treatment comprehensively. Hormonal shifts can lead to an imbalance where androgenic activity becomes more dominant, triggering more sebum production. This is why some women experience acne not just during puberty but also potentially during various phases of the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and menopause.

By offering a comprehensive range of services, FemStrong Health aims to address both the physical and emotional aspects of hair and skin changes across all life stages. We encourage you to schedule a personalized consultation to discuss your specific needs and treatment options.
