Treating Hair Loss

Hair loss is a condition that affects approximately one-third of all men with varying degrees of male pattern baldness. Women also suffer from hair loss but it is more of a diffuse thinning as opposed to male patterned. There are a variety of other causes of hair loss including that due to trauma, hormones, illness, inadequate diet, unusual immune related skin conditions and thyroid disease. Not surprisingly, a number of remedies have been used for centuries in efforts to restore and maintain hair.

Hair Transplantation

This is a procedure where hair is taken from the posterior aspect of the scalp and redistributed over the areas of hair loss. The procedure has a near total success rate. Advances in recent years have led to smaller and more numerous grafts to achieve a more natural appearance. Therefore, you are much less likely to know who has had transplantation.

Scalp Reduction

Scalp reduction is a procedure designed to remove hairless scalp usually from the back and sides of the balding area. This procedure is done in a variety of patterns depending on the patient’s situation. Patterns include many designs such as a U-Shape or a "Mercedes pattern" over the crown area.

Flap Surgery
Flap procedures have the advantage of giving a nearly instantaneous hairline. With flaps, there is usually not significant hair loss in the transferred tissue, allowing for immediate and remarkable results.

Flap surgery is something to consider for patients who desire a strong, thick anterior hairline. This surgery is done in stages over a three-week time frame. It requires two procedures under local anesthesia and one procedure under general anesthesia.
