Hair Restoration:
There are many forms of hair loss, but androgenic alopecia is the commonest form of male pattern baldness.
Oral treatments for this have been available for many years, but due to side effects not everyone can tolerate those treatments. Fortunately there are now topical solutions that are effective and have fewer side effects.
It is not only males that can have issues with hair loss. Females can also benefit from a range of therapies and topical treatments.
Smoking Cessation:
The serious effects of smoking on our health are well known and you may have been thinking about quitting, but have not yet made the commitment.
The good news is that your body will begin to repair itself as soon as you quit, no matter your age. One of the most important things is for you to understand what your triggers are and how to avoid them.
In addition, there are a range of treatments that are available on prescription and supported under medicare that can help you to quit the habit.
