Dealing with hair loss has a deep psychological and emotional impact on a woman\u2019s well-being, which is why it is important to know both the root cause and the solutions available to you. We\u2019ll be discussing the most common causes of permanent female hair loss and the hair loss management techniques we offer.<\/p>\n<h3>Female Pattern Hair Loss<\/h3>\n<p>Female pattern hair loss (FPHL), also known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is the most common form of women\u2019s hair loss globally. It occurs most commonly after the menopause though it can start earlier. It is caused by diffuse thinning of the hair, usually on top of the scalp, as the hair follicles gradually produce finer and shorter hair and eventually stop production altogether. It is caused by genetic and hormonal factors.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1439\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/fphl-1-600.jpg\" alt=\"Top view of women suffereign female pattern hair loss\" width=\"600\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/fphl-1-600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/fphl-1-600-300x150.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>Lichen Planopilaris<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/lpp.php\">LPP<\/a> is a rare inflammatory condition that results in patchy permanent hair loss on the crown and vertex. It occurs by destroying the hair follicle and replacing it with scarring. The cause of Lichen Planopilaris is unknown, but it could be connected to the body\u2019s immune system.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1438\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lpp-1-559.jpg\" alt=\"Woman with Lichen Planopilaris showing patchy hair loss\" width=\"559\" height=\"313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lpp-1-559.jpg 559w, https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/lpp-1-559-300x168.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 559px) 100vw, 559px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3>Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/ffa.php\">Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia<\/a>, also known as Scarring Alopecia or Cicatricial Alopecia, causes hair loss at the front of the head, resulting in a receding hairline. It is caused by the immune system attacking the hair follicles, leaving scaring behind, but why it is concentrated at the front of the head is unknown. It occurs mostly in postmenopausal women but can occur earlier.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1437\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ffa-1-558.jpg\" alt=\"Two women with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia showing receding hair line\" width=\"558\" height=\"314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ffa-1-558.jpg 558w, https:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/ffa-1-558-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 558px) 100vw, 558px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"permanent-female-hair-loss-the-solutions\"><a class=\"anchor\" href=\"#permanent-female-hair-loss-the-solutions\"><i class=\"fa fa-link\"><\/i><\/a>Permanent Female Hair Loss: The Solutions<\/h2>\n<h3>\u00a0Intralace System&#x2122;<\/h3>\n<p>Designed for women with moderate to severe hair loss or thinning, this is our pioneering hair replacement prosthesis. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk\/intralace.php\">The Intralace System<\/a>&#x2122; is attached to the scalp over the area of hair loss.
