I have treated patients with temporary hair loss for over 10 years. Hair loss can shatter a person’s self confidence and lower their self-esteem. I am thrilled to have recently discovered the Viviscal supplement that helps support healthy hair growth in cases of reversible thinning. I have seen slowing down of hair loss, new hair growth and improvement of hair characteristics including hair texture.

For several years, I have been recommending the Viviscal supplement to all my clients who suffer from reversible pattern hair loss and thinning. Viviscal is a truly wonderful all-natural supplement that decreases hair loss and regenerates existing hair growth by nourishing hair follicles with a healthy balance of needed nutrients. It is especially effective with individuals who experience hair thinning or loss because of everyday stress or hormonal changes due to normal stages of life. The Viviscal supplement also has a beneficial effect on skin and nails.
