Prescription-Grade Scalp Support

Medical hair loss therapy is one of the most effective tools available for slowing the progression of androgenetic alopecia. At the Canadian Hair Transplant Centre, our Nurse Practitioners provide medically supervised prescription therapy at our Edmonton clinic as part of a comprehensive, individually assessed treatment plan.

What Are Medical Hair Loss Therapies?

Medical hair loss therapies are evidence-based pharmaceutical treatments designed to slow or halt the progression of hair thinning by targeting the biological mechanisms driving follicle miniaturisation.

For patients in the early stages of androgenetic alopecia, they offer a clinically grounded way to preserve existing density, support follicle health, and, in some cases, stimulate measurable regrowth without surgical intervention.

Why Choose the Canadian Hair Transplant Centre?

Medical hair loss therapies at the Canadian Hair Transplant Centre are prescribed and supervised by our team of licensed nurses, who are trained in protocols established by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS). Treatment decisions are based on a comprehensive assessment that includes trichoscopy, scalp analysis, and a review of relevant medical history. Your care will be overseen by our founder, Dr. Anil Sharma, a registered physician with over 15 years of specialized experience.

The Canadian Hair Transplant Centre is the only practice in Alberta dedicated exclusively to hair restoration, with fully operational clinic in Edmonton. Our location is a CPSA-approved Non-Hospital Surgical Facility, ensuring medical therapy is delivered within a properly credentialed environment with appropriate clinical oversight from start to finish.

Finasteride (Oral)

Finasteride (Oral)

Oral finasteride is a daily prescription medication that works by inhibiting the type II 5-alpha-reductase enzyme, which is responsible for converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). By reducing DHT at the follicular level, finasteride slows the miniaturisation process affecting the frontal hairline, crown, and vertex. Clinical studies report that 83% of users maintained their baseline follicle count, with 64% experiencing measurable regrowth at 24 months.

Dutasteride (Oral)

Dutasteride (Oral)

Oral dutasteride is an off-label treatment that blocks both type I and type II 5-alpha-reductase enzymes, delivering more complete DHT suppression than finasteride alone. It’s typically considered for patients who have not responded adequately to finasteride after 12 months of consistent use. Due to its longer half-life and broader systemic effects, dutasteride requires a thorough risk-benefit discussion before prescribing.

Topical Minoxidil

Topical Minoxidil

Topical minoxidil is an over-the-counter version of Rogaine® that’s applied directly to the scalp at 2% or 5% concentrations, available as a solution or foam for twice-daily use. By improving blood circulation to the follicle and extending the active growth phase, minoxidil can meaningfully slow shedding and increase hair shaft diameter with consistent long-term use. Clinical data show that 60% of users achieve increased scalp coverage after 48 weeks.

Prescription-Strength Topical Formulations

Prescription-Strength Topical Formulations

When standard over-the-counter concentrations of topical treatments are insufficient, prescription-strength formulations offer a higher-potency alternative with greater follicular impact. These include prescription-grade topical finasteride, which reduces systemic absorption compared to the oral form while still delivering localised DHT suppression directly to the scalp. Our team of nurses will assess whether a prescription-strength topical formulation is the appropriate next step based on your response to prior treatments.

Compounded Topical Solutions

Compounded Topical Solutions

Compounded topical solutions are custom-prepared formulations that combine multiple active ingredients, such as minoxidil, finasteride, and tretinoin, into a single application. Compounding allows the concentration and combination of agents to be tailored to your specific pattern of loss and response profile, offering a more personalised approach to hair restoration. These formulations are prescribed and monitored by our licensed nurses at our clinics.

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP)

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a specialized form of micro-tattooing that uses different tools, pigments, and techniques from decorative tattooing. Using a fine needle, a technician deposits tiny dots of pigment into the upper dermis, carefully sizing and shading each one to mimic the appearance of a closely shaved hair follicle. Applied across areas of thinning or baldness, thousands of precisely placed dots create the visual impression of greater density and a closely cropped head of hair.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Medical Hair Loss Therapy?

Medical hair loss therapy is most effective for patients in the earlier stages of androgenetic alopecia who retain viable follicles in their treatment zones. Ideal candidates include those experiencing active progressive thinning, patients seeking to stabilise loss before or after a hair transplant, and individuals with a strong family history of pattern baldness who want to take a preventive approach.

When Will You See Results From Medical Hair Loss Therapies?

Most medical hair loss therapies require consistent use over a sustained period before measurable changes become apparent. Patients typically notice a reduction in shedding within the first three to four months, with early improvements in density visible between months six and 12. Peak results from oral and topical medications generally occur at the 12 to 18-month mark, and benefits are maintained only with continued, uninterrupted use.

The first thing you will notice if you make an appointment at Sharma Skin and Hair Surgery is the cleanliness and extremely welcoming staff. All the staff are dressed professionally. I have not had to wait in the waiting area for more than 5 minutes. When you are taken to your room you are offered beverages and cookies. The service is above and beyond. Dr Sharma takes his time listening to your concerns and does not rush you in any way. Dr Sharma is very knowledgeable, and I can honestly say I have never met a Dr. so kind and compassionate. I live one hour away from the clinic, but I would not dream of going elsewhere. If you want to get results that you will be happy with, I suggest making an appointment, you will not regret it!

I recently had a procedure done with Dr. Sharma, and I am so glad I chose this clinic and doctor for my surgery. Having met with various doctors in different cities, I decided to fly in to Edmonton for my case with Dr. Sharma

To start, I had a consultation several months back in which everything was discussed and explained to me. Afterwards, summary emails were sent to ensure I had all the information in case I needed to review anything.

In the weeks coming up to my surgery, the communication from Anthony and the rest of the front office staff was top notch. Anytime I phoned or emailed, a response was received within minutes. There was no stone left unturned, everything was meticulously planned.

On the actual day of the surgery, I could not have asked for a better experience. All the staff are so knowledgeable, and work in unison like a well-oiled machine. They truly care about your experience and want to ensure that you are comfortable.

Dr. Sharma himself is so kind and patient. His care revolves around the patient. He took so much of his own time to sit down with me to understand my goals and what is important to me as a person. This was not a cookie-cutter approach. The care I received was tailored to my case specifically.

Immediately after surgery, I was expecting significant pain and discomfort during and after the procedure, but there was none. I did not need to take any pain killers and was very comfortable afterwards.

Not only is Dr. Sharma caring and knowledgeable, he is technically very skilled and has minimal/no tissue trauma leading to better results. Comparing the results from my surgery to other friends who have had similar surgeries, I can tell that my recovery has been much easier.

On the third day I was able to meet with Rey who again explained all the post operative care instructions to me to make sure that I could take care of myself.

The Sharma Skin and Hair Surgery clinic is top notch at all levels. Having lived in various cities across Canada/USA, I have never received a level of healthcare that is this high end.

Thank you so much to the entire team: Dr. Sharma, Rey, Naz, Anthony, Cindy, Taran, Joanne and Ethan. You all made for an experience that could not have been any better!

I underwent a F.U.E. hair transplant surgery at Sharma Clinic about 18 months ago. Overall, I was extremely impressed with the procedure and results.

Dr. Sharma was incredibly kind and welcoming during my first appointment and the staff was very friendly. The facilities were also incredibly clean, modern and professional. After my initial meeting the team provided a quote and were very responsive with my follow up questions and concerns. I decided to proceed with the procedure, which on a pain scale of 1-10 I would consider a 1.

I’m very satisfied with the results - and all of the follow up appointments I’ve had after the surgery. I’m so happy I decided to have the procedure done, it’s given me so much confidence to have a full head of hair again. I would highly recommend the Sharma clinic, the staff are very friendly and professional and Dr. Sharma is incredibly talented, caring, openly communicative and supportive.

After over plucking my eyebrows in the 80's and 90's, they just wouldn't grow back. I was researching my options, and came upon the eyebrow transplant procedure. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Dr. Sharma and his wonderful team have been amazing throughout the entire process. I was informed of everything at my consultation. There were no surprises at all. I'm now 6 months post op and my brows look amazing already, and I know I still have at least 40% of growth yet to come. I would do it over again in a heartbeat!!

Dr. Anil and his team were amazing, attentive, and made the entire experience very comfortable. At the 3 month mark the results are already amazing and due to the professional work, look completely natural.

I am looking forward to the progress over the next few months and can’t wait to see the full results.

Thanks again to an A+ team.

Dr. Sharma and his staff are extremely professional, and take the time to answer any concerns you have. I received a hair transplant from them last year, and Dr. Sharma and his team did an amazing job! The hair is growing so well, and it looks amazing.

Anyone who has any concerns about their hair line or hair loss should come see Dr. Sharma and ask there questions. He is such a kind doctor and makes you feel comforted while telling you the reality of what he can do for you.

My experience with the Sharma clinic has been nothing but wonderful, and I would 100% recommend everyone coming to this clinic to see the doctor about any of their concerns!

I was blessed to have Dr Sharma perform my FUE hair transplant over a year ago, and never thought I'd see the results I have today. As others have already said here, the place is spotless, the staff are encouraging, and its evident that Dr Sharma is passionate about his craft, seeing his patients walk out the door with a smile on their face, pondering how they'll style their new found confidence that will be growing in the near future. I'm excited at the likelihood of returning for another procedure building on the incredible results already obtained, from a person I know I can trust. We're truly lucky to have a person with the artistic talent like Dr Sharma's, working right here in the frigid north.

Anyone looking to add some extra hair to their head would be smart to contact this clinic ASAP. I’d been balding/thinning since I was 17 and over the last 10 years I’d always been unsure of whether or not I should seek out help for it. I’m glad I finally did. Dr. Sharma and his team did amazing work to help me and I can’t wait to see the results. Dr. Sharma is so honest and genuine and it was so obvious that he was always looking out for my best interests. He treats you like an old friend as much as he does a client which makes going through the whole process that much easier. Even after a long 12 hour day with him and his team it was oddly kind of sad that it was over because they're just that nice to be around. You wouldn’t regret coming to Dr. Sharma for help. I know I won’t.

Just went through FUE surgery yesterday, Dr. Sharma, Cindy, and Taran, were extremely friendly, supportive, and professional. It was a long day at the clinic but, they made sure I was as comfortable as possible throughout the day. Dr. Sharma gave his phone number as well as an emergency number for the first night, and made available all possible post surgical cares that I need.

I had a hair transplant consultation with Dr. Sharma where he helped me work through the variety of solutions that are available and to determine what would work best for my budget. Despite not moving forward with a transplant just yet, the conversation was very valuable and helped me to understand additional methods that will aid in the slowing of my hair loss. They have a great team, the clinic is exceptionally nice and they have a clean, welcoming aesthetic. Definitely recommend.

The procedure is expertly negotiated and the team are extremely professional.
Dr Sharma explains the procedure, after care and clearly defines what the results will be.

I’m only 6 months post op and the results are so amazing that I have hair of maybe 10 years prior, and they assure me it will get even better!!!

I cannot recommend Dr Sharma and team enough, the before and after pictures on the website are genuine and my hairdresser also commented on how amazed she was with the results.

For the follicley challenged this is a no brainier.

After years of considering a hair transplant I had a co worker who had a hair transplant with Dr. Sharma and his hair was basically perfect. So a year ago I made an appointment and upon meeting and talking with Dr. Sharma and his staff I knew I was ready to proceed. Im now a year post OP and my hair transplant is perfect. My hairline and my crown have been fully filled in. The result is a natural looking head of hair. I couldn't be happier with the experience or the result. If you're considering this procedure put Dr. Sharma and his team on your short list of clinics. You will not regret the decision or be dissatisfied with the results.

I honestly could not be happier with my experience at the Sharma clinic. Every step of my procedure, from the initial consult, right up until I was at home recovering seemed to move effortlessly. All of the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable as soon as walked through the front door.

My consult with Dr. Sharma felt more like a discussing options with a friend rather than being examined by a stranger. The whole meeting was stress-free, any questions I had were answered to my complete satisfaction and I never felt as though I was trying to be sold something I didn't need. It's unfortunate that there are clinics out there that see dollar signs when individuals walk through the door but that couldn't be any further from the case when it comes the Sharma Clinic. I honestly believe that Dr. Sharma and his staff take extreme pride in their work and thoroughly enjoy seeing the smiles on their clients faces after a job well done.

My hairline looks better than it did at 18 years old and I couldn't be happier.

Got a FUE transplant with Dr. Sharma about 6 months ago and would honestly recommend him to anyone. Very thorough and helpful throughout the entire process, his team was on top of everything. Most importantly though, they simply did an incredible job on my transplant. My hairline looks better than it did at 18 years old and I couldn't be happier.

Surgical Support & Maintenance Therapies Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I stop taking my hair loss medication?

Stopping medication typically reverses the gains made during treatment. DHT suppression ends, miniaturisation resumes, and shedding gradually returns to pre-treatment levels. For patients who have undergone surgery, ongoing medication is often recommended to protect non-transplanted native hair from continued progressive loss.

Can medical therapy alone replace the need for a hair transplant?

No. Medical therapies can slow or stabilise hair loss, but cannot restore coverage in areas where follicles are already permanently absent. They’re most appropriately used as a complementary strategy alongside surgical intervention or as a standalone option for patients in the earliest stages of loss who are not yet surgical candidates.

Are there side effects associated with oral finasteride or dutasteride?

Finasteride is associated with sexual side effects in approximately 2-4% of users, with mood changes reported in less than 1%. Dutasteride carries a similar but potentially slightly elevated risk profile due to its longer half-life. During your consultation, you and a nurse will discuss the risk-benefit profile of each medication in detail before any prescription is issued.

Can women use the same medical hair loss therapies as men?

No. Oral finasteride and dutasteride are generally not recommended for women of childbearing age due to their hormonal mechanisms. Topical minoxidil is appropriate for most women, and compounded topical solutions can be tailored to female-specific patterns of loss. Our nurses will assess which options are appropriate based on your individual medical history.

Schedule Your Surgical Consultation

Hair transplant surgery requires careful evaluation and planning. Schedule a consultation to determine if you are a candidate for FUE or FUT procedures. The assessment includes donor evaluation, recipient area analysis, and discussion of realistic outcomes based on your individual characteristics. For medical therapy options, consult with your primary physician or dermatologist.
