Hair loss
There are many causes of hair loss
Hair loss can be hard to talk about and there are many causes. Autoimmune, inflammatory, genetic, stress, metabolic, hormonal, nutritional, infectious, etc.. Highlander’s doctors have expertise in managing all forms. Early intervention typically leads to the best recovery.
Getting to the root of it
The providers at Highlander use the latest in treatments and technology to identify the cause of your hair loss. This allows directed therapy options for your best possible outcome.
Often the diagnosis can be made by examination, but sometimes trichoscopy or biopsy is necessary to confirm a diagnosis.
Although all of our providers treat hair loss, Dr. Kristina Kleven is our in-house and regional expert on hair loss disorders.
Treatment
Most people are unaware of all the options available to treat hair loss. Restoring your hair or halting progression can be achieved in most cases. We offer the latest in treatment options from medical management (solutions, supplements and medications) to cosmetic therapies, such PRP. We follow your loss objectively with digital imaging or trichoscopy to assess improvement so therapy can be optimized.

Dr. Kristina Kleven provides PRP treatment for several different causes of hair loss. This system uses your own growth factors to trigger hair growth. As this treatment does not work for all types of hair loss, an evaluation is necessary first to see if you are a candidate.
Although the consultation for your hair loss is typically covered by insurance, PRP treatments are not covered. When used for the right condition this can be a highly effective management strategy, restoring a significant amount of hair.
