However, depending on your preference, you might be adverse to getting a hair transplant. Usually a hair transplant involves a surgeon removing hair from at the back of the donor’s head. Usually three strands are removed at a time. It is often called a follocialar The section of hair is dissected into three different units and then the hair is placed into your scalp using a large needle.
In this process a hairline is created, however hair transplantation is not cheap, so be prepared to pay from $5,000-10,000 dollars.
What is Male Pattern Baldness?
Male pattern baldness is the most common form of hairloss. Typically it is identified by a receeding hairline as pictured below.
Hair grows about an inch every couple of months. Each hair grows for 2 to 6 years, remains at that length for a short period, then falls out. A new hair soon begins growing in its place. At any one time, about 85% of the hair on your head is in the growing phase and 15% is not.
Each hair sits in a cavity in the skin called a follicle. Baldness in men occurs when the follicle shrinks over time, resulting in shorter and finer hair. The end result is a very small follicle with no hair inside. Ordinarily, hair should grow back. However, in men who are balding, the follicle fails to grow a new hair. Why this occurs is not well understood, but it is related to your genes and male sex hormones. Even though the follicles are small, they remain alive, suggesting the possibility of new growth.
The most common cures for male pattern baldness are hair transplants, Rogaine, and Propecia. Male pattern baldness is believed to effect nearly 2/3 of all adult males at some point in their lives.
There are many treatments to prevent male and female pattern baldness. Hair loss treatments can help improve self-esteem that may have been adversely affected by this condition.
