Men and women our days suffer from hair loss. Hair loss is not always appealing, especially in women, and makes the person feel bad with his or her appearance.
There is variety of solutions offered in the market for those who are starting to lose hair and want to stop it but what about those who had already lost their hair or lost a bigger part of their hair than they would like to. All these preventing hair loss pills and treatments won't do any good to them; they need to restore their hair.
Once again even for those who want to restore their hair there is variety of solutions offered in the market, one of them is hair transplant.
Before we talk about hair transplant a little further, let's first understand the reasons for hair loss.
Hair loss is caused by the masculine hormone DHT which destroys the hair follicles in the center and front areas of the men's head.
Women have the DHT hormone as well but when they are younger they have more estrogen which balances the amount of DHT and therefore are not affected by it.
When women get to their menopause age the amount of estrogen gets lower and the DHT starts to affect the follicles and destroy them. Not like men, the women's baldness occurs on every part of the head and not just the front and center, which gives them thinner hair look.
The DHT hormone in men does not destroy the follicles on the side of the head and the back of the head and therefore it is possible to use the remaining hair in these areas in order to transplant a person's own hair and restore its fuller hair appearance, not as it was before but better then it is.
There are a few techniques to perform this surgery:
1. Taking out tiny skin implants from the back and side of the head and transplanting them in the bald parts.
2. Taking out hair follicles and transplanting them in the bald parts.
Both procedures must be performed by a highly skilled professional surgeon.
When suffering from hair loss the most important thing is to consult a doctor or a specialist to make sure the loss of hair is not caused by something else like hormonal imbalance or anything else.
