It was mid-life when Jacob* found he was losing his hair. His hair loss had started gradually at 51 years old and now, three years later, his crown had begun to noticeably show through his thinning hair. Jacob had tried over the counter topical treatments for his shedding hair in the preceding three years with no visible results at all. Researching his professional treatment options online, Jacob came across Ashley and Martin’s website. After careful consideration of everything he had learned online regarding evidence based medical treatments and the success rates of growing his own hair back, Jacob took the first step towards reversing the effects of genetics and time by submitting an internet enquiry.
Eager to begin treatment for his poor hair quality Jacob enrolled on a RealGROWTH® program after being diagnosed with Male Pattern Hair Loss by his Ashley and Martin consultant. Hair loss ran in Jacob’s family, both his father and brother were already bald and Jacob’s own hair loss had progressed to a type III vertex on the Norwood scale. Jacob’s RealGROWTH® program consisted of a topical solution, oral anti-androgens, targeted nutritional supplements and laser treatments to compliment the medications.
Just twelve weeks in to his program Jacob told his consultant his friends had been noticing the difference and had begun asking him what he had been doing to get such great hair regrowth. Viewing his comparison photos with his consultant Jacob could see what his friends were able to see, his own hair had grown back in the crown where previous to treatment the hair had been sparse leaving his scalp shining through.
