Myrtle Beach, a center for dermatology care

The NPI registry lists 25 dermatology providers with an office in Myrtle Beach, 67.2 for every 100,000 residents: 12.1 times the national rate of 5.5 and above South Carolina's 4.9. Roughly 1,500 residents share each one.[NPI][ACS]

Within 25 miles of Myrtle Beach there are 31 dermatology providers for 402,430 residents (7.7 per 100,000), a dense supply; 25 are in the city or within 10 miles.[NPI][ZCTA]

Myrtle Beach anchors dermatology care in the Myrtle Beach-Conway-North Myrtle Beach metro area: 81% of the area's 31 providers practice in the city. Across Horry County the figure is 8.4 per 100,000: 31 providers for 368,937 residents.[NPI][OMB]

Even where offices are close, an online visit for pattern hair loss fits around work and family without a waiting room. In-person dermatology is still the place for sudden or patchy loss and a sore, red or scaly scalp.

About these counts: NPI registry dermatology providers (October 23, 2026), placed by the city on their practice address and, for the 10- and 25-mile circles, by the center of their ZIP code. Physician assistants, nurse practitioners and dermatopathologists are left out; a registry is not a workforce survey; residents are ACS 2019–2023.

Who pattern hair loss affects in Myrtle Beach

With a median age of 47.0 (South Carolina: 40.1), Myrtle Beach skews older than its state. There are 10,220 men 40 or older in Myrtle Beach (27.5% of residents; more than South Carolina's 23.6%), the ages when male pattern hair loss is most common; it affects more than half of men over 50.[1][ACS]

Myrtle Beach has 5,965 women aged 45 to 64, 16.0% of its people, more than South Carolina's 13.2%. For most women, pattern thinning begins in their 40s, 50s or 60s, according to the American Academy of Dermatology.[2][ACS]

Those are age counts, not counts of hair loss: the only prevalence figures are national, an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the US.[1]

After a baby: hair shedding near Myrtle Beach

In 2024, 58,768 babies were born to residents of South Carolina, roughly 161 a day, a birth rate of 10.7 per 1,000 residents. Myrtle Beach's 37,214 residents are 0.7% of South Carolina's 5,212,774.[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]

Thinning that has not settled after a year, or a part that keeps widening, is worth a physician's look. The safety rules come first: finasteride and spironolactone are off the table in pregnancy, when trying to conceive and while breastfeeding, and so are minoxidil tablets while breastfeeding.[4][5][6]
