    GlossaryTreatment Response

    patient's condition changes after receiving specific medical treatment

    Treatment Response refers to how a patient's condition changes after receiving a specific medical treatment. In the context of hair loss or alopecia, it indicates whether the hair regrowth treatments, such as medications or therapies, are effective in promoting hair growth or reducing hair loss. This can be measured through clinical assessments, patient self-reports, and photographic evidence.
