Why it is worth raising

Many kinds of medicine can affect the hair cycle in some people. Only a doctor or pharmacist can judge whether yours is involved.

Do not stop medicines yourself

Stopping a medicine without advice can be dangerous. Bring your medicine list and ask whether hair changes are a known effect.

Tell your consultant too

At the free consultation we ask for your medicines and allergies so our suggestions are safe and suitable. It also tells us when to suggest you see a doctor first.

Cosmetic treatment is not a substitute

Simulation & Stimulation is a cosmetic treatment. It can be considered alongside a doctor's advice, not instead of it. See the FAQ.

A free consultation at Anggun Pakar Rambut includes a scalp check, an explanation of Simulation & Stimulation and Xenocell Boost, and the full price before you decide. Lot F-137A, Level 1, The Starling Mall, PJ, by appointment.
