Dermatologist access in Lakewood: above the US rate

For its size, Lakewood is well supplied: 11 dermatology providers, or 7.0 per 100,000 residents, against 5.5 for the US and 6.2 for Colorado. Roughly 14,200 residents share each one.[NPI][ACS]

Counting the area around it, 69 dermatology providers practice in Lakewood or within 10 miles, and 214 within 25 miles: 7.2 for every 100,000 people who live within 25 miles, well above the national rate.[NPI][ZCTA]

Lakewood is one part of the Denver-Aurora-Centennial area, where 205 dermatology providers practice; 5% of them are in the city. Jefferson County, home to most of Lakewood, has 19 dermatology providers for 579,715 residents, 3.3 per 100,000.[NPI][OMB]

Pattern hair loss can be assessed online, from home in Lakewood. Sudden or patchy hair loss, or a sore, red or scaly scalp, is for a dermatologist in person.

The NPI registry (October 23, 2026) lists where each dermatology provider practices. A provider counts in the city when the practice address names it, and within 10 or 25 miles by the center of the practice ZIP code. Not counted: physician assistants, nurse practitioners, dermatopathologists. Rates divide by ACS 2019–2023 residents.

Men and women in Lakewood at the ages hair thins

Lakewood's median age is 38.0, close to Colorado's 37.5. 34,978 men aged 40 and older live here, 22.4% of all residents, less than Colorado's 22.8%. Pattern hair loss in men becomes more common with age; more than half of men over 50 have some.[1][ACS]

Women aged 45 to 64 number 18,445 in Lakewood (11.8% of residents; less than Colorado's 12.0%). The American Academy of Dermatology says female pattern thinning usually starts in midlife and is more common after menopause.[2][ACS]

Nobody counts pattern hair loss city by city. Across the US it affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women, so this page gives ages, not an estimate.[1]

After a baby: hair shedding near Lakewood

Colorado recorded 64,268 births to its residents in 2024 (final NCHS data), 10.8 per 1,000 residents, the 21st-highest (tied) of 51. Lakewood holds 2.7% of the state's 5,810,774 people.[NCHS][ACS]

Shedding after a baby (telogen effluvium) is common: it tends to peak around four months after birth and passes, and by the first birthday most women see their hair return to normal fullness, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[3]

If thinning outlasts that first year, a physician licensed in Colorado can look for female pattern hair loss. Finasteride and spironolactone are never suggested during pregnancy, when trying to conceive or while breastfeeding, and minoxidil tablets are not taken while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]
