Online Hair Loss Assessment in Canada
Understand your options for hair loss, with treatment where appropriate.
The $150 consultation fee (tax-exempt) is paid securely online when you book, and payment confirms your selected appointment time. Consultation fees pay for clinician review — prescriptions, notes, and referrals remain at the clinician's discretion. Not for medical emergencies — if this is an emergency, call 911.
About this service
What you can expect
Hair loss has many causes — and several evidence-based treatments. Your clinician reviews your history and photos, discusses realistic expectations, and prescribes where clinically appropriate.
How this service works
This service can be handled online or via a booked appointment, depending on your situation and clinician recommendation.
Clinician discretion. All prescriptions, notes, requisitions, and treatment plans are provided only when clinically appropriate and at the clinician's discretion.
Not for emergencies. If this is a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Some concerns may require in-person care.
Process
Step by step
- 1
Intake & photos
Describe your hair loss pattern and history; share photos securely.
- 2
Clinician review
A licensed clinician assesses the likely cause and suitable options.
- 3
Plan & prescription
Where appropriate, treatment is prescribed with follow-up guidance.
Assessment before treatment
Hair-loss treatment starts with identifying the pattern.
Gradual thinning, sudden shedding, and patchy loss do not point to one universal plan. A virtual assessment can organize your history and photos, then determine whether the next step can stay online or needs an in-person examination or testing.
Request a hair loss assessmentPrepare for a useful assessment
- Clear photos of the front, top, and sides taken in similar lighting
- When the loss started and whether it is gradual, sudden, diffuse, or patchy
- Your medications, supplements, and recent health or life changes
- Any scalp symptoms and products or treatments you have already tried
What a virtual consultation can clarify
The visible pattern
Your photos and history help the clinician understand the change and ask the right follow-up questions.
Relevant factors
The clinician reviews medications, health history, and recent changes that may shape the next step.
A realistic plan
You discuss options, monitoring, and limits without assuming that a prescription is suitable.
When an in-person examination may be more appropriate
- Sudden, rapid, or patchy hair loss
- Pain, redness, inflammation, scaling, broken skin, or signs of scarring
- An unclear cause or a situation needing a physical exam, testing, or specialist follow-up
No guaranteed diagnosis, prescription, or regrowth
An online request does not guarantee a diagnosis, prescription, or result. Options depend on the pattern and likely cause, and some treatments require close monitoring. The clinician decides what is appropriate after assessment.
The clinical consultation is $150 and tax-exempt. Medication, if appropriate, is billed separately by your pharmacy.
Canadian sources you can verify
Understand possible causes before comparing treatments.
The Canadian Dermatology Association describes multiple forms and possible causes of hair loss. Health Canada’s safety review also shows why prescription decisions need individual risk review and monitoring.
