My Doctor Assessed My Hair from Across His Desk
I recently visited a hair specialist in my area to address some concerns over hair loss. I am 33, have been taking propecia for about 7 years and have had what i would call minor hair loss or perhaps the loss is indicative of a maturing hair line. The doctor stated that I am not really losing my hair and made this assessment from looking at me from across his desk.
My question is can a doctor really make this assessment in such a way as it seems to me a closer inspection would be needed and expected given the hefty consultation fee? Further he is recommending meso injections which seems strange to me given that he thinks the hair loss is minor. Is there a possibility that I am being sold treatments which i do not need to make extra money or would meso therapy seem like a reasonable preventative treatment?
I know Superman had X-ray vision, so it would be more logical to ask me if this doctor was actually Clark Kent and really had Superman-type powers. He should have measured your miniaturization and hair bulk and by not doing even the basics, I would run from any recommendation he would make.
Mesotherapy is one of the fringe areas of this field.
