What to Expect at Your Hair Loss Consultation in Kansas City
By Dr. Anne Morgan | Thrive Once More, Lee’s Summit & Liberty, Missouri
Hair thinning can feel overwhelming, especially when you're not sure where to begin or who to trust. At Thrive Once More in Kansas City, we understand how personal and frustrating the hair loss journey can be. That’s why our consultations are designed to go deeper than surface-level solutions and help you finally make sense of what’s happening with your hair.
Here’s exactly what you can expect when you schedule a Hair Recovery Consultation:
Step 1: Complete a Thorough Intake Form
Before your appointment, you’ll fill out a thorough intake form to help us understand your goals and concerns. You’ll answer questions about hair changes, health history, lifestyle, and past treatments, all to create a customized plan that works for your body.
Step 2: Get Labs Drawn in Advance
We’ll order a comprehensive lab panel to evaluate hormone levels, thyroid function, inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and more. If you’ve had labs recently, we may be able to use those results if they’re relevant and thorough.
Step 3: Submit Baseline Photos
We ask that you send photos of your scalp and hairline from specific angles before the consultation. These help us identify key patterns such as:
A widening part
Thinning around the crown or temples
Ponytail volume changes
This helps us evaluate whether genetic hair loss, hormonal shifts, or another factor may be at play.
Step 4: 90-Minute Comprehensive Consultation
This appointment includes:
In-depth lab review
Scalp and hair photo analysis
Personalized treatment plan based on findings
We’ll walk you through the “why” behind your hair changes, so you leave with clarity, not confusion.
Step 5: Program Launch (If You’re a Fit)
If our Hair Recovery Program is a good fit for you, we’ll begin that same day. You’ll receive your protocol, and your low-level laser therapy device will be ordered (if applicable to your plan). You’ll also receive guidance on lifestyle shifts, supplements, and long-term strategies to support regrowth and stabilization.
Step 6: Ongoing Support
90-Day Progress Check-In with photo comparisons
6-Month Virtual Visit to evaluate regrowth and adjust treatment
9-Month In-Person Review for continued strategy
Access to Portal Messaging if questions or concerns arise along the way
We’re not here to sell you a one-size-fits-all plan. We’re here to help you feel confident in your next steps and, most importantly, to feel like yourself again.
Whether you’re navigating perimenopausal hair thinning, postpartum shedding, hormone imbalances contributing to hair loss, or genetic alopecia, this consultation will provide you with clarity and a plan.
