Is Finasteride effective for all types of hair loss?

Finasteride is specifically effective for androgenetic alopecia—commonly known as male-pattern baldness. It is less useful for other conditions such as telogen effluvium, alopecia areata or scarring alopecias. At Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic, we make sure to identify the exact type of hair loss you’re experiencing before recommending any treatment. This diagnostic approach prevents wasted time and ensures that every plan is medically appropriate. If finasteride isn’t suitable for your condition, we offer alternative solutions such as nutritional support, PRP therapy, scalp treatments or surgical restoration. Our goal is accuracy—matching the right treatment to the right condition for the best long-term results.
