Restore Hair and Scalp Clinic

There’s a new hair loss compound in early trials that works completely differently than anything you’ve heard of before. Instead of hormones or blood flow, it targets aging “zombie cells” around the follicle that are actively blocking regrowth.

Early lab results are promising, matching or beating finasteride in tissue studies. Human trials for hair loss start later this year.

Not available yet. Not a promise. But definitely one I’m watching closely for you all. 👀

Alopecia areata isn’t just “hair falling out.” It’s your immune system misidentifying your own follicles as a threat. 🧬

For years, our main tools were steroids (still great for smaller patches!). But now JAK inhibitors are changing the game for more widespread cases. Baricitinib was the first FDA-approved option, with others like ritlecitinib and deuruxolitinib not far behind.

That said, I’m never going to sell you on a treatment without the full picture. These medications come with real considerations: infection risk, a newly flagged link to weight gain, and the possibility of relapse if you stop.

And here’s the part that often gets skipped: sleep, smoking, and metabolic health all play a role in how this condition progresses. Hair health is never just about the follicle.

If you’re navigating alopecia areata, you deserve a plan built around YOUR case, not a one-size-fits-all protocol. That’s what I do here at Restore. 💛

I hope the glitter helped everyone to relax and reset a little bit!

Claims that biotin will help you grow your hair are quite unfounded and biotin is abundant knowledge our diets. If you are concerned about hair loss, please see a Trichologist and get your blood work done so we know what you are actually deficient in.
