Lupus

Lupus is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects various parts of the body including the skin. One of the most devastating side effects of Lupus is the severe hair loss associated with it. Dr. Lewenberg's Formula is extremely successful in treating this hair loss and giving patients the self confidence they need to live with this disease. It is important that you call and speak to Dr. Lewenberg or come in for an appointment to tailor your treatment to your needs.

Severe Dandruff / Seborrheic Dermatitis

In cases of severe dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis, a patient must use a treatment of dandruff along with one of Dr. Lewenberg's Formulas.

Dandruff makes your scalp more sensitive to irritation; therefore patients should use Dr. Lewenberg's New Formula and apply it from 10 or more inches away to allow the alcohol to evaporate. The formula increases circulation and rejuvenates the skin on your scalp. Using Dr. Lewenberg's New Formula should not only improve your hair, but will also help treat your scalp. The Tretinoin in Dr. Lewenberg's Formulas stimulates growth of new skin, replacing the damage. Likewise, damage to your sebaceous glands is repaired, while the DHT-inhibiting properties of Tretinoin reduce production of sebum and the likelihood of future flare ups.

Psoriasis of the Scalp

Since psoriasis is caused by irritation to the scalp, Dr. Lewenberg recommends his that patients use the New Formula and apply it from 10 or more inches away to allow the alcohol to evaporate. Patients must continue to treat the psoriasis with another medication, while using Dr. Lewenberg's treatment to regrow their hair. As scalp irritation can contribute to psoriasis, patients need to be especially careful to follow directions.

Trichotillomania

The Formula does not treat Trichotillomania. This is a psychological disorder, which must be treated with psychological care. However, it can be used to help patients regrow hair lost to pulling, so long as there is not too much scarring.

Thyroid Conditions

Increased or decreased Thyroid activity can cause hairloss. These are serious medical conditions and must be treated by a specialist. However, once the condition is under control, Dr. Lewenberg's Formulas can be used to more quickly regrow hair.

Unfortunately, some patients with Thyroid conditions also suffer from Androgenic Alopecia due to genetic factors. Maintenance is required in this case.
