I've started hair loss treatment due to office stress ㅠㅠ I'm sharing the recommended number of sessions and the process.
I think I was under too much stress lately due to the intense pressure of project deadlines at work, participating in cryptocurrency events on Bithumb, and worrying about my finances. At some point, my heart started sinking every time I saw thick piles of hair accumulating in the drain while washing my hair. I am only in my mid-30s, but seeing my parting line already look thin and the volume at the crown of my head completely flattened caused my self-esteem to plummet. I tried taking biotin and switching to hair loss shampoos, but they weren't a fundamental solution, so I eventually decided to visit a specialist for a consultation regarding hair loss treatment.
The director performed a microscopic examination of my scalp and told me that, fortunately, my hair follicles were not completely dead; instead, I was in the early stages of thinning and hair loss caused by stress and nutrient deficiency. Therefore, we decided to proceed with a hair loss treatment that injects nutrients directly into the scalp to strengthen hair roots and promote hair growth. Honestly, I was really scared of getting injections in my scalp, but the procedure was performed meticulously to minimize pain, so it went more smoothly than I expected. Since I could get it done in about 30 minutes during my lunch break, it wasn't a burden even for a busy office worker.
You emphasized that consistency is the most important thing. You mentioned that the basic recommended number of hair loss treatments is to receive them consistently at least 5 to 10 times at intervals of one to two weeks to feel noticeable changes. You advised me not to be impatient and to think of it as a long-term battle, as there is no miracle where your hair suddenly becomes thick after just one or two sessions. Haha. I have also cleared my mind and am diligently checking in every week on my way home from work.
I have completed four sessions so far. While my hair hasn't grown back as densely yet, the amount of hair falling out when I wash it has definitely decreased significantly. I am also very satisfied that my hair has gained strength when blow-drying, so the volume at the crown of my head looks much better than before. I know there are so many people like me who are secretly worrying about hair loss due to work stress. I recommend that you don't suffer in silence and get a consultation for hair loss treatment as soon as possible, even in the early stages. They say that the longer you wait, the more sessions are recommended and the more expensive it becomes, so let's start managing it in advance!
