Hair Loss Information : Read It
December 22, 2009
It may not be what we want but hair loss is quite a normal bodily function. The causes are many and varied but one thing is for sure and that is untold millions of people of all sexes and ages are affected by it worldwide. If you loss your hair, the correct medical term for this occurrence is Alopecia. Androgenic Alopecia may not be a term you have heard but it accounts for nearly ninety five out of one hundred cases of hair loss in men; it is usually referred to as Androgenic Alopecia, and it’s hereditary.
What most people don’t know that is if your hair loss is only moderate, it may be that your eating habits are causing the problem and your diet needs to be assessed. Exposure to chemicals or cosmetics, hormonal imbalance, stress, anxiety and mental tension are some of the other causes. No matter what the reason, it is worth remembering that it is only if the hair follicles are damaged that can make the condition permanent. It is not, surprisingly, purely the domain of men as many people think; in a America for example, up to forty in every hundred cases are women.
In fact, hair loss is also common among women as they age although with women a thyroid condition is one of the more common causes. By the time they reach sixty, forty percent of women around the world will have experienced loss of some form or another. During and after a pregnancy is another time when women may experience a hair loss problem. If you always thought that patterned hereditary baldness was a male problem then you will be surprised to learn that in America approximately 30 million women also suffer from this condition.
A new but a treatment that is becoming increasingly popular is surgical hair restoration; it is considered the ultimate solution for those who suffer with permanent hair loss. Hair follicles that are healthy and undamaged are taken from the scalp and transplanted to an area where the follicles have been damaged for whatever reason. The process only requires local anesthesia and is carried out on an out-patient basis but has become one of the most regular forms of hair restoration for men. It is now possible for women to enjoy this hair restoration treatment that men have been using but it is becoming popular for women who also wish to hide some scarring caused by previous facelifts.
The most successful hair transplants are those where the recipient tries to maintain his original looks and not to attempt to appear like someone else. For a person planning on having hair transplant surgery, all current health issues must be cleared up before any treatment can commence. While cosmetic surgery does include hair restoration as one of its sub-fields, this is a different form of cosmetic treatment available. New hair restoration techniques are being discovered all the time but if you have not found success then perhaps hair transplant therapy might be your only course of action for your hair loss.
