Overview
A medical approach to hair loss
Hair loss has many causes, including genetics, hormones, thyroid problems, nutrient deficiencies, stress and medications. Treating the cause matters as much as treating the scalp.
As an internal medicine physician, Dr. Cardona looks for underlying issues first, then builds a plan that may include Alma TED, medical therapy and hormone or nutritional support.

Real Results
Before & after
Vita Nova patients, shared with their written permission. Individual results vary.
Why do I need labs?
Thyroid, hormone and nutrient problems can cause hair loss. Finding them makes treatment more effective.
Do you do hair transplants?
No. We focus on non-surgical, medical hair restoration.
How long before I see results?
Hair grows slowly, so plan to judge progress over three to six months.
Is this for women too?
Yes. Many of our hair restoration patients are women.
How much does hair restoration cost?
Pricing depends on the area treated and the number of sessions you need. We give you a clear quote at your evaluation, and package pricing is often available.
What causes hair loss?
Genetics, hormones, thyroid problems, nutrient deficiencies, stress, illness and some medications are common causes.
Can hair loss be reversed?
Hair that is thinning can often be strengthened and regrown when follicles are still active. Areas that have been bald for a long time are less likely to respond.
When should I see a doctor about hair loss?
If you notice sudden shedding, patchy loss or steady thinning, an evaluation can find the cause early.
