Hair Restoration Surgery Is It Helpful?

Posted on June 30th, 2010 by Sir Bald Dude  |  No Comments »

imageHair restoration surgery makes use of hair transplantation technique. With this technique, hair is removed from the hair bearing region and is transplanted in the bald areas of the scalp. This is usually carried out in bald people. The transplanted hair after the surgery will start growing in the new area. The colour and texture of the hair remains the same as your original one and hence makes it look real. Hair which was taken from the donor area grows again. The most important advantage of transplanting exclusively with Follicular Unit Transplanting (FUT) is that a single session in an area that is bald or destined to become bald will result in a perfectly natural appearance. You can opt for advanced hair transplant procedures such as micro graft transplantation, ultra refined grafting or follicular unit grafting. Based on the seriousness of your baldness and an initial hair assessment, hair experts will suggest a suitable medical procedure that is apt for your own needs. When hair restoration procedures are carried out by hair surgeons, even a hair stylist will not realize that it has been transplanted and not your real hair. To carry out your surgery you need to choose an expert who is highly skilled, talented in this field, has a steady hand and above all a high success rate. Reading testimonials about the surgeon and his work goes to prove how effective his surgery has been in the past. In order to further get into the details, you can reach out the patient who has undergone the surgery and find out how effective the hair transplantation surgery was in the past. With this, you get first hand information about the after effects of such surgery. Allay any kind of apprehensions about the hair related surgeries before trying it out. Find out about various hair treatments before deciding on one. There are several over the counter tablets for hair fall and topical hair treatments which will provide results for as long as you use them. Topical treatments such as Minoxidil and Aminexil are effective and will reduce hair fall but soon after you stop using them your hair problem continues. Hair restoration surgery is considered to be the most effective as it has permanent and long lasting effects. Care should be taken while transplanting your hair or else you will not get the desired result. If too many are transferred in a single session or if the grafts are planted too densely, an unacceptable percentage of the transplanted hair may not grow. Choose your surgeon and the clinic for your surgery carefully.

hair restoration surgeons vs dermatologists?

Posted on June 27th, 2010 by Sir Bald Dude  |  1 Comment »

26 and have all my hair but I know that hair loss runs on my dad’s side of the family. I may have thinned a little on the sides and receded a tiny bit.(but still Norwood 1) Want to protect my hair from future loss but would rather try and stay away from Propecia cuz its costly and may have to take it for life.The fact that I have my hair now at age 26, it may not be the best idea for my health. Saw a well-known hair restoration surgeon who told me that I had extremely early symptoms of thinning (from the fact that I told him my father/uncle had hair loss) and that I should take propecia right away. I found it hard to believe so I went to the derms who agreed that I receded a little but it was not serious. There was no need to be aggressive with medication and that I may be fine for the next 20-30 years. They advised that I take it if i started showing noticeable signs.Who should I trust, derms or the hair doc?
I believe that dermatologists would know just as much about the basics of hair loss as a hair restoration surgeon. The only way hair restorations surgeons are more credible is if you were looking for hair transplants.

Hair Loss Treatment for Women

Posted on June 25th, 2010 by Sir Bald Dude  |  No Comments »

imageHair loss in women, we’re finding out, is a larger problem than we knew before.  This has necessitated more women to seek out hair loss treatment methods that work for them specifically.  It’s no great surprise that society today puts a high value on appearance for women. Magazine covers assault us daily across the supermarket aisles, setting the beauty bar for women high.  That fact that the gorgeous models are airbrushed, digitally sculpted and wearing hair extensions is lost on women as they stare at the covers wondering why they can’t look like that.Why is hair loss so devastating to women?  Why is it so important that women find a hair loss treatment?  One thing women particularly value is their hair. They style it, color it, and care for it. Romanticized by the generations, hair is referred to by phrases like “crowning glory”, “mane” and “luxurious locks”.  Whether you’re a man or woman suffering from hair loss, hair frames our faces.  But for women more than men, hair and gives them their sense of individuality and often defines them as women.  So when a woman begins experiencing hair loss, the resulting impact on her self-esteem can be devastating.  Now, not only can she not look like one of those women on the magazine covers, but her hair is actually falling out. That is not supposed to happen. Is it?   It’s time to find a hair loss treatment that restores looks and feelings.Surprisingly, studies show that 50% of all women will, at some point in their lives, experience thinning hair and one out of four women will experience hereditary hair loss, or female pattern baldness and will require a long-term hair loss treatment.  That’s an alarming statistic.  In fact, female hair loss catches many women off guard.  Even those women who’ve watched their mother’s hair loss are surprised when it happens to them. Some women go into hiding and others despair that there is any hope out there on the horizon for their hair loss condition.  Some use wigs and hair extensions to hide the hair loss, but it’s important for women to uncover the underlying cause of their particular hair loss.There are many causes of hair loss in women and not all of them are hereditary. Genetics certainly plays a part in female pattern baldness (which unlike male pattern baldness, tends to show up as thinness across the entire crown of the head). If your mother and grandmother both experienced female pattern baldness that required hair loss treatment, chances are you will, too.  Women with fine hair, as opposed to thick or coarse hair, have a much higher risk of thinning hair later on. Everyone loses or sheds hair normally, but when more than the normal amount sheds and refuses to regrow, it becomes noticeable. Hair miniaturizes or becomes weak and refuses to grow more than a few inches. Finally, it stops growing altogether.  For some women, thin, weak hair is a chronic condition. For others, hair loss comes as something of an unpleasant surprise.While the quality of your hair can be determined by genetics, other factors can play a part in hair loss in women, such as:• Over-styling – Hairstyles like cornrows or ponytails that pull or tug on the hair follicles (Tension Alopecia) can have a devastating effect on hair roots, causing them to weaken, miniaturize (thin) and eventually die. Once dead, a hair follicle will never regrow.  Use of harsh chemicals and straighteners on hair run the risk of scarring the scalp and damaging or killing hair root leading to hair loss.• Overuse of Chemicals – Bleach, straighteners and perms, used improperly, can lead to burns on the scalp and scarring that can interfere with follicle growth. Hair follicles, deprived of oxygen will die and disappear.• Menopause and aging – The hormones that encourage hair growth gradually diminish during menopause and the lack of estrogen in the scalp can lead to an overabundance of DHT or Dihydrotestosterone. This hormone is one of the leading causes of hair loss in both men and women, because it cuts off the oxygen flow (and nutrition) to the hair follicle and virtually strangles the root. Hair loss treatments such as laser hair therapy and topical products like Rogaine can inhibit the effects of DHT and promote hair re-growth.• Birth Control – Your hair is like the body’s barometer. Any time you juggle hormone levels in the body, it shows up in your hair.  Many women find that using birth control pills results in hair loss. Also, certain IUD’s have been reported to cause excessive hair loss in its users. • Stress – Stress has been shown to directly impact hair loss. Scientists believe stress can change hormone levels that affect the hair follicle.If you are experiencing excessive hair loss, don’t lose hope. There are hair loss treatments you can try to slow and even stop hair loss. Contact your nearest hair loss treatment clinic to find out your options. Don’t wait until it’s too late.
