Method of measurement: Measuring the hair density in an area equal to 1.8 square centimeters in the center of the parietal of the scalp, while imaging the specific area and using the Trichoscan software.;Cumulative hair shaft diameter. Timepoint: Before treatment, after 3 and 6 months of treatment. Method of measurement: Measuring the cumulative hair shaft diameter in an area equal to 1.8 square centimeters in the center of the parietal of the scalp, while imaging the specific area and using the Trichoscan software.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Participant's satisfaction with treatment. Timepoint: Before treatment, after 3 and 6 months of treatment.
