Case Study: Family Members Can’t Believe How Quickly Ashley and Martin Treatment Works

Jeff’s* fine hair had been thinning for over fifteen years. Now all that was left at the front was a diffuse layer of hair from his hairline to the crown. It had not come as a surprise to him when his hair had started falling out around his 24th birthday, balding ran in his family. Both Jeff’s father and grandfather had also lost their hair as younger men. For five years the idea of seeking medical intervention for his hair loss had been playing on his mind. Finally Jeff went online to find out what treatment was available for people in his position and found Ashley and Martin. He contacted us using the online enquiry form on the Ashley and Martin website.

The 39 year old spoke to his consultant about his insecurities as a single man who was losing his hair. It was hard to feel confident meeting people when he was acutely aware of his thinning hair. The consultant, understanding that it is important to feel good about yourself, conducted a scalp examination to determine the extent of the hair loss. While Jeff had lost an extensive amount of hair from his frontal hair line back to his crown, she could see enough viable vellus hairs in his area to give her hope of being able to help Jeff with a medical solution his problem. Had this area been devoid of these slight, almost translucent hairs the only options left available for Jeff would have been a RealHAIR^® hair transplant or to wear a RealLOOK^® hair system to cover the area.

The consultant explained to Jeff how his hair loss worked and what Ashley and Martin’s RealGROWTH^® would be able to do to intervene in this process to enable him to regrow his hair. The consultant made sure he had a realistic picture of what could be achieved with medical treatment after such a prolonged amount of shedding. Happy with his personal chances of success Jeff decided to treat his Norwood level Va loss with a RealGROWTH^® program without wasting another moment.

Flying in and out regularly for work did not leave Jeff much time to attend the clinic for laser therapy appointments, however with consistent adherence to the rest of his treatment program Jeff’s hair began to return. After four months, he could see the new hair beginning to grow in his large balding patches. Family members had started commenting on how good it was starting to look and couldn’t believe the treatment was working so quickly. After eight months Jeff’s hair had increased in density and a new covering of hair had grown from his frontal hair line to his crown. It was not quite as dense in this area as the rest of his hair had become, but the number of positive comments he received and the newfound confidence he had gained had been worth every bit of his treatment.
