Doctor-Led Cosmetic Clinic in Sydney
Hair Loss Assessment
Dr Sana Pirzada — Medical Practitioner (General Registration), Ahpra MED0001970963.
Hair loss and scalp symptoms can have several causes. A consultation allows a doctor to review your symptoms, medical history and medicines and examine your hair and scalp. Further tests or referral may be needed. Imaging can assist an assessment but does not diagnose every cause of hair loss. Management is considered after the findings, evidence, limitations, risks, alternatives and costs have been discussed. An assessment does not guarantee a diagnosis, regrowth or a recommendation for treatment.

Assessment and management information
Hair Loss Assessment
A doctor reviews the pattern and duration of symptoms, medical history and scalp findings. Further investigation or referral may be necessary.
Hair Loss Management
Appropriate management depends on the diagnosis, evidence and individual health. Discuss likely benefits, limitations, potential harms and alternatives.
Hair Transplant Information
Transplantation relocates donor follicles and carries risks including bleeding, infection, scarring, poor graft growth and an unsatisfactory appearance. Suitability and recovery vary.
Eyebrow Transplant Information
An individual assessment is needed before considering transplantation to the brows. Results vary, complications can occur and ongoing trimming may be required.
Questions for your practitioner
Practitioner information

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q1:I'm not sure which treatment I need. Where do I start?
Start with an individual medical assessment. Findings may lead to further testing, referral, monitoring or discussion of management options. A consultation does not commit you to treatment.
Q2:Do I need a hair transplant?
Not necessarily. A doctor must assess the cause and stability of hair loss, donor hair availability, health, expectations and alternatives. Transplantation has risks and does not guarantee growth or stop all future hair loss.
Q3:Do you treat women?
Hair loss and scalp symptoms can affect people of any gender. Assessment considers the individual history and examination findings. Management may include investigation or referral.
Q4: How much does treatment cost?
Ask about consultation fees before booking. If management is recommended, request the total costs, review appointments and any ongoing care requirements before deciding. Costs depend on the individual plan.
Q5: Which clinic should I book my appointment at?
Contact the clinic to confirm which location and practitioner provide the assessment you need. Availability can differ between locations.
