A scientific approach to hair loss
Dr. Akbari built Monarch MD's hair program around one principle: diagnose first, then treat. For the past 8 years, the clinic has treated thousands of patients with all kinds of hair loss — including androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, alopecia areata, hormonal and post-menopausal hair loss, and scarring and scalp conditions.
Every plan starts with a private, 60-minute hair analysis performed by a medical doctor — with live HD trichoscopy, a detailed scalp exam and a blood test of over 40 biomarkers — and ends with a detailed report with your images.
- Treatments chosen from your test results and the research
- Medical therapy, PRP, microneedling with exosomes, dutasteride mesotherapy and Fotona laser
- Progress measured with photos and trichoscopy
