Dermatologists in Cleveland: a regional center

Cleveland draws dermatology care from well beyond its limits: 91 dermatology providers practice here, 24.8 per 100,000 residents, 4.5 times the US 5.5 and above Ohio's 4.9. Each serves, on average, about 4,000 people who live in the city.[NPI][ACS]

Counting the area around it, 123 dermatology providers practice in Cleveland or within 10 miles, and 193 within 25 miles: 9.9 for every 100,000 people who live within 25 miles, well above the national rate.[NPI][ZCTA]

Of the 132 dermatology providers in the Cleveland area, 69% are in Cleveland itself. Cuyahoga County, home to most of Cleveland, has 108 dermatology providers for 1,249,418 residents, 8.6 per 100,000.[NPI][OMB]

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

Dermatology providers registered in the NPI registry as of October 23, 2026, by practice address: in the city means the address names the city; the 10- and 25-mile counts add every provider whose ZIP code center lies that close. Dermatopathologists, physician assistants and nurse practitioners are not counted, and the rates use ACS 2019–2023 population.

Cleveland by age: the years hair loss is common

Cleveland is younger than Ohio as a whole, with a median age of 36.3 against 39.6. There are 79,019 men 40 or older in Cleveland (21.5% of residents; less than Ohio's 23.7%), the ages when male pattern hair loss is most common; it affects more than half of men over 50.[1][ACS]

Cleveland has 45,325 women aged 45 to 64, 12.3% of its people, less than Ohio's 12.9%. For most women, pattern thinning begins in their 40s, 50s or 60s, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[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]

Postpartum shedding, Cleveland and Ohio

Ohio recorded 126,795 births to its residents in 2024 (final NCHS data), 10.7 per 1,000 residents, the 23rd-highest (tied) of 51. Cleveland holds 3.1% of the state's 11,780,046 people.[NCHS][ACS]

Many new mothers notice clumps of hair coming out a few months after delivery. Dermatologists say it peaks about four months after birth and is temporary, with fullness usually back by the baby’s first birthday.[3]

No finasteride or spironolactone for anyone pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, and no minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding. After that, thinning that lasts past a year may be female pattern hair loss, which a physician can assess online.[4][5][6]
