Hair loss is a powerful indicator of overall health, and this belief drives everything we do at Emerge Trichology & Wellness. Based in Tampa, we are a full-service clinic specializing in Functional Trichology, hair restoration, and hair replacement. Our expert team focuses on uncovering the root causes of hair loss by addressing underlying health conditions and offering natural, science-backed solutions. At Emerge, we are dedicated to promoting lasting hair and scalp health while supporting your overall well-being.
Emerge Trichology Restoration Center was founded by Dr. L. McLowry, a Clinical Trichologist specialized in diagnosing and treating diseases and disorders of the human hair and scalp. She founded Tampa’s only full-service Trichology Center with a mission to share her hair health and wellness expertise with clients facing a range of difficult hair and scalp conditions.
Hair loss can affect a person at any life stage. Anyone who has struggled with hair loss from thyroid disease, a hormonal imbalance, anemia, chemotherapy treatments, or emotional trauma understands intimately the crushing humiliation and loss of confidence this can cause. At Emerge, we are committed to being your partner and champion as you search for lasting solutions to your hair loss problem. We provide a multi-therapeutic and tricholistic approach to hair restoration that focuses on healing the body first in order to heal the hair and scalp.
When there is a failure large or small in one of our internal health systems, hair can serve as a barometer giving us one of our first warning signs that something is wrong. In addition, when any one of our body systems lacks essential nutrients or minerals, the body may pull these essential nutrients and minerals from the hair, skin and nails first, causing premature hair loss or thinning.
We address hair loss in the early stages, before the hair follicle dies, as we find the greatest success in treating hair loss at its onset. Our goal is to identify a client’s underlying health problems and then prescribe a natural and holistic healing regimen that creates the healthy internal environment necessary for hair to thrive. For those who are in more advanced stages of hair loss, Dr. McLowry is Florida’s only licensed Cranial Prosthesis Practitioner providing custom wigs for patients who have lost their hair due to medical conditions or treatments. We have a special passion for serving those who served us and offer free wigs to America’s veterans as the only preferred provider under the Veterans Affairs Mission Act for Cranial Prosthesis.
