Gary’s* family had a history of male pattern hair loss with his father, uncle and maternal grandfather all beginning to go bald in their 20’s. This strong genetic history of hair loss left Gary with an assuredness that he himself would lose his hair also.  Gary had only been 18 when he began to notice his hair falling out.  His brothers were finding they were having the same pattern hair loss  problem and now, at 22 years old Gary’s hair had become very thin, showing his scalp through the diffuse hair.

He was reluctant to go down the route of a transplant having seen his brother go to India for that procedure.  The pre-existing hair had thinned around the transplanted hair leaving his brother with a patchy, unnatural spread of hair.  Gary was aware that there were non-surgical options to keep his hair from Ashley and Martin’s advertising; and with his hair playing a large part in his stage appearance with his band Gary was not ready to lose his hair just yet.

The consultant Gary came to see assessed him with Male Pattern Hair Loss between a Norwood type III vertex and type IV.  With plenty of thinning, but still active hair Gary was an excellent candidate for a RealGROWTH™ program.  The RealGROWTH^® medications plan was recommended to Gary with a Money Back Guarantee if he wanted one.

Gary took the information he had found out home to discuss with his family and 4 days later he returned to commence his treatment for pattern hair loss after seeing the in-clinic doctor.  Gary was came regularly for his fortnightly Low Level Laser Therapy treatments, only taking time off for an overseas holiday.

At Gary’s 4 month check-up the consultant was excited to see the results achieved with the pattern hair loss treatment he had recommended.  Gary’s hair had grown back thicker all over and he is singing the praises of the RealGROWTH^® program.  The biggest complement is to hear Gary talk about referring his friends to Ashley and Martin.

A 25 year old male presented to the clinic in February 2013 for a free consultation with grave concerns he was suffering with male pattern hair loss, as there was history on both sides of his family. He also was showing visible signs of thinning which was extremely distressing to him.

Upon the initial consult it was discovered the client had already been diagnosed with male pattern hair loss and was undergoing treatment with prescribed medications from his own doctor, although only for a the past few months and had not noticed any change at this time.

The visible decreased density on the crown and frontal areas of the scalp along with the client’s clear family history helped with the diagnosis of male androgenetic alopecia. The client had no past or present medical concerns and presented in good health.

After discussing all the treatment options for male pattern hair loss available, the client decided to continue on his own path of treatment for the time being. It was not until December 2014 when he returned to see if there was anything new available. He believed he was doing quite well in his treatment, however when we were checked the photos from the first consult against the photos taken on the day we discovered all was not well as he had visibly thinned even further.

It was at this point he decided to start on an Ashley and Martin medical RealGROWTH^® hair regrowth treatment program desperately hoping to regain his hair. Six months passed before he was able to visit for a check-up. Once again we took new photos and checked them side by side with previous ones. This time however there was clear visible improvement and the client was extremely happy and relieved.

56 year old male presented to the clinic with no previous treatment for hair loss and was concerned he soon would lose all his hair if he did not take control.

Client was in very good health with no past or present medical conditions which may contribute to loss. Client’s family history showed males on the father’s side experiencing hair loss with various levels of aggressiveness.

Diagnosis is male pattern baldness, Norwood 4 due to the clear visible thinning from the hairline though to the crown leaving the back and sides intact consistent with MPB. Due to the amount of visible hair still showing cells are still active in the area treatment is considered a great option.

After a full consultation and in clinic specialist visit the client decided to move forward by starting on an Ashley and Martin RealGROWTH^®  medical program in mid – Feb 2015 and by the 4 month check-up showed great visible regrowth.

The client reported he now has renewed confidence.
