Treatment without surgery

Non-Surgical Hair Loss Solutions

Clinically proven tablets, supplements and topical treatments to slow hair loss and thicken the hair you still have, recommended only when they are genuinely suitable for you.

How they work

When non-surgical hair loss solutions are the right choice

Non-surgical hair loss solutions work on follicles that are still alive. When DHT attacks a follicle, the hair it produces gets progressively finer, a process called miniaturisation, until it is barely visible to the naked eye. Those hairs can often be thickened again, and that is exactly what these treatments are for.

This matters more than most people realise, because a hair transplant needs space to work. If an area is full of miniaturised hairs rather than genuinely bald, transplanting into it risks damaging what is still growing there. Treating it without surgery first is the safer route, and sometimes it is the only thing you need.

The honest limit is this. If a follicle has died, no tablet, shampoo or supplement will bring it back, and visible thickening in that area can only come from a transplant. We will tell you which of those two situations you are in.

What we offer

The non-surgical hair loss solutions we offer

The products we stock are the ones we have tried and tested over the years and seen results from. We have stopped selling products in the past based on a lack of results. We currently offer tablets, protein shakes, vitamins, shampoos and trichology kits.

Hair loss tablets

The tablets work by blocking the DHT that is attacking the follicles and causing hair loss. They not only significantly reduce the rate at which you lose hair, they also help thicken your hair to create a fuller look.

67% of suitable patients achieve visually thicker hair by taking hair loss tablets, and 80% of patients see their hair loss slow down significantly. All from less than £1 a day.

Clinical studies over the last 10 years have scientifically proven this, and the secret is establishing the suitability of each patient. We see a lot of people who have bought hair loss tablets directly from the internet with no suitability test performed, and who saw no growth because the medication was never appropriate for them. We stand behind the tablets we supply, which is why they come with a refund guarantee. If after 12 months your hair is not visibly thicker, we will offer you a refund credit against any future hair transplant or other hair loss solution.

Protein shakes

Follifuel's Follicular Strength Accelerator is a nutritional support system with all-natural ingredients, safe and effective for men and women who need help with lifeless, thinning hair. It provides the structural nutrition and proteins you need to increase the length of your anagen phase, making hair stronger, longer and healthier with less breakage.

The system also supports training and weight loss goals and is guaranteed to have no side effects. Loaded with biotin, zinc and hair-specific amino acids but low in carbohydrates and calories, it gives people who care about their appearance and recognise the benefits of diet and exercise the essential nutrients to keep a full head of strong, healthy hair.

Vitamins

Our vitamins activate the hair production process and provide the building blocks so your hair is as robust as it can possibly be. It is a safe and effective solution, with a natural vitamin complex formulated with all of the essential vitamins and nutrients for healthy hair.

Your daily vitamins have never been easier. They are packaged into daily pouches and cover all of your health needs, from lack of energy in the morning through to hair health and thickening.

Shampoo

We do not have our own brand of shampoo, but we partner with a globally recognised company that makes excellent products. The shampoo helps combat hair loss and thinning. These sulphate-free formulas are dermatologically designed for healthy, safe and effective hair and scalp cleansing, working by inhibiting DHT and energising your hair and scalp to increase growth by up to 46%. Shampoos are not recommended as a standalone treatment, but they work well alongside the other products.

    FAQs

    Non-surgical treatment questions

    Do I have to take them for the rest of my life?

    The products work while you use them. If you stop, the DHT that was being blocked resumes its effect and you will gradually return to the pattern you would otherwise have had. Most people stay on treatment for as long as keeping that hair matters to them.

    Do the tablets work for everyone?

    No, and that is exactly why suitability testing comes first. Around 67% of suitable patients see visibly thicker hair. If you are not suitable we will tell you, rather than sell you something that will not work.

    Can I use non-surgical treatment alongside a transplant?

    Yes, and we often recommend it. Surgery restores the area that was treated, but it does not stop loss continuing elsewhere. Protecting your remaining native hair is what keeps the overall result looking right in years to come.

    Are there side effects?

    A small number of people experience side effects with DHT blocking medication. This is covered fully at your consultation, including who should not take it, so you can make an informed decision.

    Is shampoo on its own enough?

    No. Shampoos can inhibit DHT at the scalp and support growth, but on their own they will not hold back genetic hair loss. They work best combined with tablets or supplements.

    If I take the tablets, am I on them for the rest of my life?

    No. You only need to take them until later life, because as you get older your body produces less DHT, so you will not need them forever. The tablets are a great product because those who are just starting to thin may never need a hair transplant at all. We can catch it early, slow down future loss and thicken the hairs that are thinning.

    How often do I take the products?

    The tablets are every other day, as we need a break in between days to greatly reduce the chance of side effects. The shakes are daily, and you simply mix one scoop with milk or water. Vitamins are three, three times a day.

    Can I use more than one product at a time?

    Yes, and it is beneficial to. A combination of the tablets and the shakes works particularly well together, as both increase hair thickness.

    How long does it take for the tablets to work?

    The tablets start working to prevent hair loss straight away. It takes around 12 months for visually noticeable thickening, because the medication alters the hair growth phases and that takes time to show.

    Free Retreat Or Your Money Back

    It is easy to make bold statements of success and much harder to stand behind them in a fast growing and heavily advertised market. We deal with real problems and appropriate solutions every day, and we have never been afraid of backing up what we claim. We only accept patients we know we can help, and we set expectations we know can be met, which is what allows us to offer a guarantee at all. If we are unable to achieve the treatment plan and the realistic result that goes with it, we will welcome you back and treat you again at no extra cost. That happens rarely. In the event that we cannot retreat you for medical reasons, you receive an appropriate refund instead.

    All Surgical Facilities Are Registered With The Government's CQC (Care Quality Commission)

    Our facilities are a blend of clinical technology and considered design. Our treatment and surgery rooms are designed to combine the latest in science and aesthetics. Our surgery rooms are fully equipped to handle a full day of Microscopic Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation or Follicular Unit Extraction surgery, one patient per room. Each surgery room is adjunct to a row of five to six high definition, optimal resolution microscope stations where technicians cut and sliver a patient's donor strip. No matter which facility you choose for your treatment, our attentive staff and relaxed, contemporary setting helps put patients at ease from the minute they have their hair loss assessment to the moment the surgery is complete.

    Surgeons Who Only Do Hair Restoration

    The physicians at UK Hair perform just one procedure: hair transplantation. They work one-on-one with patients throughout the process and typically prefer to schedule only one procedure a day to give each patient the attention and care they deserve.

    Written Guarantee With Your Treatment

    We advise over 6,000 patients every year. Hair loss and its correction is all we do, which is why we are willing to put our guarantee in writing rather than leave it as something said in a consultation room. Every surgical procedure we carry out comes with a written guarantee that sets out what we have agreed to achieve, and exactly what happens if we do not achieve it.

    We Would Rather Say No Than Get It Wrong

    We stand by our guarantee, but we take no pleasure in retreating patients, because for most people that is an added inconvenience they could do without. We do everything we can to avoid it being necessary, and that starts at the assessment. Only around 40% of the people we assess turn out to be suitable for a hair transplant, and we will say so when surgery is not the right answer. Years of experience mean we can usually spot a potential problem at consultation, and where we do, we say so.
