Stress Related Thinning: How Claire Restored Density with Hair and Scalp Treatments

Client: Claire

Treatment: Hair and Scalp Treatment Programme with Home-Care Routine

Duration: 12 weeks (one session per week)

After several years of intense stress, Claire began to notice visible thinning throughout her hair. Feeling worried and unsure what was happening, she booked a consultation at Hove Hair Clinic. Through a structured twelve week treatment plan and a carefully designed home routine, Claire has achieved noticeable thickening, improved scalp health and renewed confidence.

About the Client

Claire had always enjoyed naturally thick hair, so when she began noticing a reduction in density over the previous two years, it became a source of concern. During her consultation, we performed a detailed scalp examination and used magnified imaging to assess follicle activity. Claire was diagnosed with telogen effluvium, a stress related shedding condition that can occur after prolonged emotional strain.


Before Treatment

The Challenge

The main challenge was the extent of thinning and the emotional impact this had on Claire. Stress had kept her hair in a prolonged shedding cycle, and initial imaging showed very little new regrowth. Our aim was to support her scalp back into a healthy rhythm, encourage new growth, and rebuild the strength and fullness of her hair as well as Claires confidence.


The Treatment

Claire began a twelve-week programme of weekly in clinic hair and scalp treatments. These sessions were designed to be deeply restorative for both the scalp and the nervous system, allowing stress levels to settle while increasing circulation and follicle activity.

Alongside her in clinic treatments, Claire was given a personalised home routine including:

  • Shampoo and conditioner to support scalp balance

  • A scalp revitalising spray to encourage healthy regrowth

  • A scalp massager to enhance circulation

  • A gentle hairbrush to protect vulnerable strands

She also received a range of lifestyle and scalp care tips to help maximise her progress. Claire followed the programme exactly as recommended.


Results & Benefits

At the twelve week review, new growth was clearly visible across the scalp. Her overall density had improved, her hair looked fuller and healthier, her scalp condition had strengthened significantly and her confidence shone through.

Claire experienced:

  • Noticeable thickening through previously thinned areas

  • Improved follicle activity and visible new regrowth

  • Healthier scalp and better hair condition

  • Increased confidence and reassurance

She is now continuing with her home routine to maintain and build on her results.


After Treatment

What our Client says...

“I had always had very thick hair and when, during the last two years, I noticed my hair was thinning, I found it distressing. So, I made an appointment at Hove Hair Clinic with Sarah. She listened to my problem, took details of my diet and lifestyle and looked at my scalp through a camera confirming there was no new growth. We discussed a programme that included weekly visits, scalp massage and the use of products at home. I adhered to the programme and when Sarah examined my scalp again after twelve weeks, she confirmed there was indeed new growth. I was delighted.

Sarah and Tracey are professional, friendly and put me at ease during the treatments and discussions. I will now continue to use the products that include a shampoo, a conditioner and a growth spray. I also use a scalp massager and a hairbrush that is gentle on the scalp and hair. I would highly recommend Hove Hair Clinic and will definitely stay in touch.”


A word from Sarah...

“Claire’s progress has been such a joy to watch. Her commitment to both the in-clinic sessions and her home routine played a huge part in her results. We are delighted to see new growth returning and will continue supporting her as she maintains her progress.”
