Case Study: Ashley and Martin Assist Client with Androgenic Alopecia

March 28th, 2018 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Cheun was thrilled with the results he was looking at on the computer screen in front of him. It had been only sixteen weeks since he had started using his Ashley and Martin RealGROWTH® program and the results to date had been astounding. The photos taken at his very first visit to the clinic clearly showed the substantial amount of hair he had regrown in his frontal hairline. The overall thickness and health of his hair had improved and he was extremely happy and excited at the difference four short months had made to his appearance.

When 30 year old Cheun had first come to Ashley and Martin his hairline had receded worryingly and he was developing a balding patch on his crown. To top it off, his hair had become thinner all over. This was not the normal hair health of a man in his thirties. His consultant performed a scalp examination after taking some background information. Cheun had reported that the hair loss he had started experiencing three years previously had been passed down to him on his father’s side. With no medical or stress related factors impacting the growth cycle of his hair, a diagnosis of androgenic alopecia was given.

Cheun had tried treating his hair loss with an over the counter topical solution before looking to Ashley and Martin for a successful treatment option. The evidence based, medical treatment program he chose address his hair loss with was complemented by an in home low light laser therapy device that was included as part of his chosen program.

Looking at the photos Cheun could not believe the program had worked so well. He had spent two years thinking about fixing his hair loss and now, just four months after seeing an ad on the television and submitting an internet enquiry, the reason for Cheun’s self consciousness had disappeared.

Extensive Hair Loss Reversed with Ashley and Martin RealGROWTH Treatment

November 8th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Neel* was shocked at how aggressive his hair loss had been for the past three years. He was only 20 when the loss first started but now his temple recession was so severe he was looking three to four times his actual age. Neel had seen the Ashley and Martin adverts on the TV; and he completed the online consultation request form.

At his initial consultation Neel’s consultant asked him questions about his health, lifestyle and family history to determine the cause of his hair loss. Neel had a suspicion he had inherited the loss from his father and grandfather as they had both suffered from baldness. As he was in good health with very low levels of stress, Neel’s consultant was inclined to agree. An examination of the scalp confirmed Neel was experiencing male pattern baldness placed at level Va on the Norwood Hair Loss Scale.

The RealGROWTH® treatment plan was Neel’s only option in stopping the high rate of shedding and re-establishing a healthy growth cycle. Due to the amount of hair Neel had lost at the temples his consultant set realistic expectations of what he would achieve in terms of hair growth in these areas. Furthermore Neel’s consultant set a realistic time frame in which the hair would regrow in the area from the front hairline through to the crown. Thankful for the honesty and comprehensive information he had been given Neel was happy to sign up for the treatment program.

To ensure optimum growth Neel attended his clinic for regular laser therapy sessions and ensured he took his medication diligently. Twelve months later he attended his final review with his consultant. Neel was amazed he couldn’t believe the extensive inherited gene damage to his hair had been reversed before his eyes. Not only had his hair become thicker on his scalp but the temporal regions also had new growth.

Dancer regains confidence to perform with Ashley and Martin Treatment

October 18th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Craig* loved to dance but his dramatic hair loss over the last two years had impacted on his desire to perform, especially in front of an audience. He was unhappy, feeling like he had the look of 52 year old rather than a 32 year old. After seeing the adverts on the TV, Craig discussed how he felt with his family; supportively they urged Craig to make an appointment with Ashley and Martin.

At his first free consultation Craig was clearly anxious; he was concerned there may be no solution. He told his consultant various family members had lost their hair on both his mother and father’s side. The consultant performed a scalp examination and asked Craig about his health, diet and stress levels. With nothing aside from genetics impacting his hair loss, Craig was diagnosed with male pattern baldness, Norwood IVa.

Much to Craig’s relief his genetic hair loss was treatable; he still had a number of healthy follicles that would respond to Ashley and Martin’s RealGROWTH® program. Comprising of prescription tablets and solution, both prescribed by the clinic Doctor; the consultant explained how the program would promote regrowth of these follicles. Satisfied the treatment had a good chance of success, Craig signed up for his RealGROWTH® program on the day.

Over the coming months Craig took all his medications and attended regular laser treatments in the clinic. Now at his four months checkup Craig was sporting a new haircut, no longer having to wear his hair long to try and cover the patches. Confidence was radiating from him and he was already dancing again. As far as Craig was concerned his money had been very well spent.

Case Study: Couple Each Undergo Treatment and Are Both Happy with Results

June 7th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Abbas* had become increasingly concerned about his appearance recently. He was 33 years old and had very little hair left between his frontal hair line and his crown. In the three years since he began losing his hair, he had tried using an over the counter remedy from the chemist, however this had not worked for him at all. He decided to seek professional help from a hair loss specialist and, knowing we were a trusted brand and industry leaders, settled on Ashley and Martin.

The consultant Abbas met with gathered relevant medical and family history information before conducting a scalp examination. Based on genetic history and the pattern of loss, it was determined that Abbas had inherited this androgenic alopecia from his maternal side of the family. A RealGROWTH® program was recommended to reverse his Norwood IVa loss; a suggestion which Abbas acted on without hesitation.

After four months of treatment, Abbas was contacted to attend a progress check-up with his consultant. In this appointment new photos would be taken for him to compare to the ones taken in his initial appointment. Together with his consultant he would assess his progress on his RealGROWTH® program. Over the last sixteen weeks Abbas had gained so much new hair it was impossible for him not to already be aware changes were taking place. But his progress photos cemented this knowledge for him. The substantial hair regrowth he was experiencing was undeniable.

When his wife began to notice her hair fall out at an alarming rate, Abbas was quick to encourage her to seek help at Ashley and Martin. His own results spoke for themselves and he was sure his wife would be every bit as happy with the treatment as he was.

Now the couple are both undergoing their own successful treatment programs and are extremely happy with the results they are both continue to see.

Thirty-one year old Dara* had been experiencing hair loss for more than three years by this time he finally sent in an online enquiry to Ashley and Martin. At first he had not thought much of the excess shedding, however after a year of rapid loss it was much more noticeable. Although his partner assured him the hair loss did not matter to her at all, Dara started to mull over the idea of seeking treatment.

It was with his partner’s support that he came to Ashley and Martin. Knowing how much it was troubling him, she had encouraged him to seek professional advice for his concerns. After seeing our advertising on television, Dara decided to take the first steps towards solving his decreasing hair and contacted us for a free consultation.

And after his consultant diagnosed him with Norwood III vertex male pattern hair loss based on his pattern of loss and family history, Dara and the consultant discussed treatment options.

Dara was happy with the comprehensive RealGROWTH® treatment plan offered to him by his consultant and enrolled on a program straight away. His daily oral and topical therapies were complemented with monthly low level laser appointments in the clinic and Dara attended these regularly.

Case Study: Client has No Hesitation in Telling Anyone that Ashley and Martin are Able to Deliver on Their Promises

May 10th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Fifty year old Lara* was so pleased with the amount of new hair that had grown since starting her Ashley and Martin treatment plan that she said she would gladly recommend her friends use our company if they were ever concerned about losing their own hair.

Twelve months previously Lara’s hair was showing the signs of having undergone such a serious loss in density that her scalp was clearly visible through her hair. This was especially evident when she pulled her long hair back to wear it up.

During her first appointment, Lara had been diagnosed with Androgenic Alopecia, better known as female pattern hair loss. This genetic condition was characterised by the loss of density that was causing Lara concern. The natural therapies and vitamins she had used to date had not affected the loss in any way. After explaining how Laser therapy would assist Lara to regain the hair she had lost, the consultant booked her in to meet with the clinic doctor.

The clinic hair loss doctor had sent her for blood tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions that may be causing her hair loss. It was a relief to Lara to find the pathology results ruled out medically induced hair loss. Knowing that her progressive hair loss condition would only continue to worsen should she not begin treating it, Lara had purchased a laser cap as her consultant recommended.

Lara had been using the cap for sixteen weeks, when she attended her first Ashley and Martin Review. Seeing the turnaround in the condition of her hair reflected in the progress photos she was looking at with her consultant had bolstered her confidence in the treatment she was undergoing. Knowing visible results were being achieved made it easier to stick to the treatment schedule outlined for her at her first appointment.

Now, twelve months after she had first met with her consultant, Lara was looking at dramatic results in her progress photos and had no hesitation in telling anyone that Ashley and Martin were able to deliver on their promises.

Case Study: Client Becomes Increasingly Happy with Results throughout Ashley and Martin Review Process

April 26th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

While Harikiran* had been concerned about his hair for at least a year, it was his partner that encouraged him to seek help from a hair loss specialist for his concerns. The 43 year old agreed that it would be a good idea to at least find out what hair loss treatment would involve and, after contacting Ashley and Martin online, attended a free consultation.

After being greeted by the friendly staff, Harikiran was given a questionnaire designed to gather background information relevant to his hair loss and made comfortable while he filled it in. Reading this document, his consultant saw Harikiran had no known pre-existing medical conditions that may be interrupting his hair’s natural growth cycle but he did have a family history of hair loss. Harikiran’s grandfather had also suffered from the condition.

During the course of the three years he had been losing his hair, Harikiran had tried treating the problem with over the counter products, however this had not achieved the desired results. In fact, it had not achieved any results at all that he could see. After conducting a scalp examination, the consultant diagnosed Harikiran with male pattern hair loss, Norwood Va.

The pair discussed realistic outcomes of treatment as Harikiran was experiencing advanced hair loss and what would be involved in treating his genetic condition. At this time, Harikiran was not completely convinced that he wanted to embark upon a treatment program. He left the clinic empty handed to go home and discuss all the details of the program he had been offered with his wife.

A full year later Harikiran called the clinic again. His hair had continued to thin and he was now ready to set about reversing the loss he had been observing every morning in the mirror. He enrolled on a RealGROWTH® medical treatment program with laser therapy every month.

After his monthly laser therapy treatments, Harikiran would meet with his consultant for a progress review. Photos were taken of Harikiran’s hair to monitor his progress throughout the course of his program. As time went on Harikiran became increasingly happy with the results he was seeing and looked forward to continuing with his program.

Case Study: Temporal Recession Dramatically Reduced by Ashley and Martin’s RealGROWTH Treatment

April 12th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

George* started losing his hair not long after his 21st birthday. In a dramatically short period of time he developed a deep recession in his temples and his crown had started to develop a balding patch. A friend of George’s offered support and suggested he call Ashley and Martin for help. With so much damage having been done in just twelve short months, George picked up the phone to book his free consultation.

George told his consultant about the men on his mother’s side of the family having lost their hair and the stress he was under at university. It was clear to his consultant that the male pattern hair loss George had inherited was being exacerbated by the stressful lifestyle George was leading.

To make sure the treatment he had in mind would achieve the outcomes George was looking for, the two men had a conversation about what George would like to see happen with treatment. Ideally, George wanted to stop his hair falling out and get back the hair he had lost. While healthy hair would inevitably shed as part of the natural growth cycle, the RealGROWTH® program the consultant recommended would aim to re-establish a healthy hair cycle, stemming the excess shedding of hair and move the hair follicles in an extended resting phase back into their growth phase to thicken and regrow George’s hair. Eager to get started, George enrolled on a RealGROWTH® program straight away.

Over the course of the next four months, George visited the clinic often for laser therapy. And by the time his first Ashley and Martin Review was due, it was obvious his treatment was working. The thinning patch on his crown had disappeared and he was sure there was more hair in his temporal region than there had been. Progress photos taken by his consultant confirmed that not only was the recession in his temples dramatically reduced, but there was much less space between individual follicles. This increase in density gave the appearance of a much thicker and fuller head of hair. George’s RealGROWTH® program had given him exactly what he had been hoping for.

Case Study: After Sixteen Weeks of Treatment Client No Longer Has Beginnings of a Bald Patch

March 28th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Brenton* had not long entered his twenties when his hair began to fall out unnaturally fast. Within two years his hair was so thin he needed to do something about it or face the fact he would be bald before he turned 30. The twenty-four year old footy fanatic found Ashley and Martin online and, having submitted an online enquiry, attended a free consultation.

The consultant asked Brenton a range of questions designed to find the root cause of his hair loss. Suffering from depression and having the dominant hair loss gene passed down to him on his mother’s side, the consultant diagnosed Brenton with male pattern hair loss, Norwood III vertex. Characterised by thinning from the frontal hair line to the crown, Brenton’s genetic hair loss would be best treated with a combination of anti-androgens, topical solution and laser therapy. The distress Brenton was feeling regarding his hair loss was not helping his low mood. He signed up for treatment before he left his consultant’s office.

Determined to get the best results possible from his treatment plan, Brenton faithfully took his medication and applied his solution each day. To boost the results he would gain from this treatment, Brenton attended regular laser therapy treatments at the clinic also.

Before long it was time for Brenton to have his first scheduled Ashley and Martin Review. During this meeting with his consultant, photos were taken of Brenton’s hair to compare to ones taken in his free consultation. It was obvious to both men that Brenton’s hair had greatly improved in density and quality. After just sixteen weeks of hair loss treatment, he no longer sported the beginnings of a bald patch and nowhere was his scalp visible through his hair. Brenton could not have been happier with the outcome of his RealGROWTH® program.

Case Study: Client Thrilled with Results from Ashley and Martin Treatment and Gains Confidence Back

March 8th, 2017 by Ashley and Martin Case Studies

Dean* was fast approaching 40 years old when a friend of his told him about Ashley and Martin. His hair had come so sparse over the last fifteen years that Dean had taken to keeping it long in combing it over in an effort to make it appear than he had more hair. For five years Dean had considered the idea of treating his hair and after his friend pointed him in the right direction, he called to book a free consultation. In the decade and a half that he had watched the density of his hair gradually decrease he had never tried treating it with any over the counter products. And, like a lot of people, he was unsure if there was anything that could be done for him at this late stage in the game.

The consultant he visited  at his local hair loss clinic had conversations with Dean around his expectations of treatment as well as the physiological reasons for his hair loss. The genetic hair loss that Dean was experiencing had been passed down to him on his father’s side of the family and a scalp examination showed that Dean still had enough viable hair follicles to undertake medical treatment and expect pleasing results.

The treatment his consultant recommended would include Ashley and Martin’s RealGROWTH® solution, both herbal and prescription tablets, as well as in home low level laser therapy delivered with the aid of a Laser Cap.

Wanting to address his advanced level III vertex loss before it was too late, Dean signed up for treatment straight away.

The simple, yet highly effective treatment routine that Dean underwent each day worked wonders. In four and a half months, Dean’s hair had undergone a dramatic increase in density. While his hair loss had not been completely reversed in this short amount of time, his scalp was not showing through thin strands of hair. Dean had gained a great deal of his confidence back and was thrilled with the early results he was seeing.
