GlossaryCombination Therapies (Combination Treatments)

use of multiple treatments simultaneously for one condition

Combination Therapies, also known as Combined Treatments, refer to the use of multiple therapeutic approaches simultaneously to treat a single condition. In the context of hair loss or alopecia, this might involve using both topical treatments like minoxidil and oral medications such as finasteride, along with other interventions like laser therapy or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections. This approach aims to enhance the overall effectiveness of treatment by targeting different mechanisms involved in the condition.
