In many cases, treatments are available to help regrow hair on a bald spot or thicken hair growth where thinning has occurred. But it’s important to rely on proven treatment methods, and to be wary of products and treatments that make big promises with little scientific data to support them.

Sometimes, simple home remedies can produce good results, but you may need over-the-counter (OTC) or prescription medications to regrow hair if home treatments aren’t working for you.

If these approaches aren’t effective, medical or surgical procedures may be necessary. Read on to learn more about what causes a bald spot, how to treat it yourself, and when you may need medical treatment.

What are some natural treatments for a bald spot?

Natural hair growth methods typically focus on improving circulation in the scalp or promoting hair follicle health and restoring hair quality.

Many products associated with hair growth are found in the home and are often used for other purposes. Here are some options:

Massage

Requiring no products, a vigorous scalp massage is one of the simplest ways to help boost circulation in the scalp and stretch hair follicle cells to promote thicker hair growth. However, there is no research suggesting that a massage will increase hair growth.

To try it, firmly (but gently) press your fingers against your scalp and rub them across your scalp for at least 5 minutes.
