Case Study: Client Walks into Ashley and Martin to Make Appointment and Walks out Ready to Start Treatment

Ajay* had been thinking about seeking help for his hair loss for the last six months. And today was the day to do something about it. He walked in to the Ashley and Martin clinic on the off chance that there may be an appointment free that day. As luck would have it, there was an appointment free for Ajay without too much waiting.

The 26-year-old, concerned that his hair loss was making him look older than he really was, had researched the best hair loss treatments online before coming to Ashley and Martin. He thought he had been losing hair for the past year, however upon examination his consultant thought it was more likely that Ajay’s hair loss had been subtly taking place over the past four years.

On his mother’s side of the family, Ajay’s uncle also suffered from the same hair loss condition as he did. This genetic link, coupled with the pattern of loss the consultant was seeing led to a diagnosis of male pattern hair loss, Norwood III.

Ajay’s consultant offered him a RealGROWTH^® medical hair regrowth program. Consisting of oral anti-androgens, topical solution, herbal supplements, specialised scalp cleansing products and low level laser therapy, this comprehensive program would both target the cause and effects of Ajay’s genetic hair loss.

Needing to see a doctor for a check-up and to have his prescriptions written before commencing treatment, Ajay was slotted into an appointment with the doctor that same day also. With enough prescription and non-prescription hair loss products in hand to last for the entirety of his program, and his topical solution being compounded to his needs by the Ashley and Martin pharmacy, Ajay went home happy that he had been able to get so far into the process having just walked in off the street.

In the early stages of his program, Ajay followed the directions he was given closely, however after four months he relaxed a little and forgot to take his medication every day. Despite the less stringent commitment to his program in the latter stages, Ajay’s eight month progress review was full of positive news. The balding spot on his crown was covered in new, healthy hair and the overall density of his hair had improved out of sight.
