Your Hair Loss Is Personal – So Is Your Care
Hair loss may show up on the outside, but it often starts from within. That’s why Dr. Yaker’s approach goes deeper than just your scalp – he looks at your whole health picture to understand what’s really driving or worsening your hair loss and how to treat it effectively.
A Thoughtful, Thorough Consultation – Not Just a Quick Look
At your first visit, you’ll receive a full 60-minute consultation with Dr. Yaker, one of the most experienced and detail-oriented hair restoration specialists in the country. This isn’t a rushed, one-size-fits-all appointment. It’s a deep dive into your hair, scalp, and general health to see what’s really going on beneath the surface.
Before you even walk in the door, we start preparing.
Why We Ask for Medical Forms and Lab Work Upfront
To give you the best possible care, Dr. Yaker personally reviews:
- Your medical and surgical history
- Medications and supplements
- Nutrition, lifestyle, and stress levels
- Your most recent lab work
- Your hair loss history
- Your hair care products
This is where functional medicine meets hair restoration. Hair loss is rarely just a “hair problem.” By seeing your internal health picture in advance, Dr. Yaker walks into the room already informed, ready to connect the dots, not start from scratch.
“I want patients to feel like I already know them – because I do. That’s how we build trust, and that’s how we get better outcomes.” – Dr. Yaker.
What Is the TrichoLAB Scan?
As part of your evaluation, you’ll undergo a TrichoLAB Hair and Scalp Analysis. This AI-generated, high-resolution scan captures microscopic details about your hair density, follicle health, and scalp condition. This advanced tool allows us to track patterns, monitor progress, and guide treatment planning with precision.
We’ll also take a series of high-quality photos to document your baseline and help assess progress over time.
It’s Not Just About Hair. It’s About Health Optimization
Dr. Yaker approaches each case like a medical detective – searching for hidden triggers that may be accelerating your hair loss. These can include:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Micronutrient deficiencies
- Autoimmune activity
- Chronic inflammation
- Stress-related shedding
Because many systems in the body are interconnected, Dr. Yaker doesn’t just focus on your hair. He evaluates how your hormones, metabolism, immune function, and even your gut health may be affecting your hair loss – and your overall wellbeing.
What You’ll Walk Away With
At the end of your visit, you’ll receive:
- A clear diagnosis (or multiple diagnoses, if applicable)
- A breakdown of what’s causing your hair loss – and why
- Your personalized treatment plan, which is based on sound science
- Education and next steps, so you know exactly what to do – and what to avoid
After your visit, you’ll receive a personalized hair treatment summary delivered straight to your inbox – so you can review everything at your own pace and stay informed every step of the way.
Dr. Yaker believes that education is an integral part of healing. If you don’t understand what’s going on, it’s easy to make mistakes that unknowingly make things worse. That’s why he takes his time to explain everything in clear, simple language you can act on.
Long-Term Partnership, Not a One-Time Visit
Hair loss has no cure – but it can be managed and prevented from getting worse. That’s why Dr. Yaker encourages annual follow-ups, where he can reassess your progress, review new labs or medical changes, and adjust your plan as needed.
Most doctors say you’re “fine” if your labs are “normal.”
Dr. Yaker’s goal? Optimal – not just normal.
Your Hair, Your Health, Your Future
Whether you’re considering surgery or just starting medical treatment, Dr. Yaker acts as your primary hair physician – someone who’s invested in not just your hair, but your long-term health and confidence.
If you’re ready to take a smarter, more comprehensive approach to your hair loss, we’re here to help you every step of the way.
