The most accessible and cost-effective treatments are minoxidil and finasteride, available in oral and topical forms. Minoxidil is a vasodilator that strengthens hair follicles and increases the growth phase of hair, while finasteride inhibits the conversion of testosterone into DHT.

PRP involves injecting a person's growth factors into the scalp, while LLLT uses low-energy laser light to stimulate hair growth.
