What is hair loss?
Hair loss can affect both men and women. One of the most commonly used medical
term for hair loss is Alopecia. Alopecia is a medical disorder that can
cause symptoms of balding also referred to as a state of lacking hair. The
amount and patterns of hair loss can vary greatly, ranging from a minimal
loss of hair on the head, to total loss of all head hair, to the most extreme
form of baldness which involves the loss of all hair from both the head
and the body.
Why should you suffer?
Men and women suffering from Alopecia (hair loss) often can experience both
low self-esteem and also long-term psychological effects as a result of
their hair loss. A common solution and form of treatment for men and women
suffering from Alopecia or naturally thinning hair is a hair transplant
surgery. During a hair transplant surgery your own hair follicles are surgically
removed and replaced in the areas you need it most.
At the Capri Clinic many men and women suffering from Alopecia can safely resolve their hair
problems with a hair transplant. Although it does take time for new follicles to reach their full
maturity at the Capri Clinic you will find that your surgery is not only easy but pain free. Their team
of hair loss professionals ensure that your hair transplant surgery is not only safe but the Capri Clinic
also takes the time to answer any of your hair loss needs.
What are common causes for hair loss?
The most common form of baldness in men is a genetic progressive hair thinning
condition called androgenic alopecia or male pattern baldness. Hair is lost
in a well-defined pattern, beginning at both temples. Over time, the hairline
recedes to form a characteristic "M" shape. Hair also thins at the crown
of the head. Often a rim of hair around the sides and rear of the head remains
in tact and healthy. Male pattern baldness affects roughly 40 million men
in the United States alone. The pattern of hair loss in women differs from
male pattern baldness. In women, the hair becomes thinner all over the head,
and the hairline does not recede. Androgenic alopecia in women rarely leads
to total baldness.
The most common trigger for Alopecia or male pattern baldness is DHT. DHT is responsible for 95% of all
hair loss problems. In genetically
prone scalps, DHT initiates a process where the width of the hair shaft
is progressively decreased until scalp hair resembles peach fuzz or else
becomes non-existent.
Hair loss can also be contributed by many other factors besides hormonal
changes some of which include medication changes, chemotherapy, radiation,
nutritional factors, thyroid problems, childbirth, skin disease, hair pulling,
and stress.
Why other hair loss products don't work?
Using products such as, Rogaine, Propecia, and ScalpMed can not only be costly but infective when trying to
treat male pattern baldness. They can not effectively treat DHT hair loss problems because often hair follicles
can die out or become dormant where your hair is thinning or becoming bald. The only way to resolve this problem
is to replace these dormant hair follicles with new hair follicles that will give you one of the most effective
remedy for hair loss treatments out on the market today. This procedure is often referred to as a hair transplant.
A hair transplant is one of the most effective forms of treatments for male pattern baldness. Not only is it safe
but it is also pain free at the Capri Clinic. For more information on hair transplant surgery or to get more
