HAIR RESTORATION FACTS & MYTHS

Medical Hair Restoration Facts

Medical hair restoration/replacement takes hairs from a healthy portion of the scalp and re-plants them in balding or thinning areas. In some cases, small skin grafts from the healthy area are grafted to the thinning area. There is a very thin scar that will result but isn't visible. There is a procedure where a balloon is placed under the skin of the scalp. A portion of the balding area is removed and the new skin growth flapped over the removed spot. This is very complicated and can be very painful. These are permanent procedures. The hair grows as the rest of the hair will grow.


Medical Hair Restoration Myths

Some say that once the hair is replaced onto the scalp, it just lies there and doesn't grow. Hair grows as has been mentioned as naturally as it would have were the area it was taken from was healthy. Many well done grafts can create a beautiful head of hair.

HAIR LOSS FACTS & MYTHS

HAIR LOSS FACTS

Causes of hair loss can be heredity, illness, trauma, stress, or particular types of medications. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have only two products that are approved, one is a cream/topical treatment called minoxidil and the other an oral medication known as finasteride. There are some products that may create the illusion of thicker and fuller hair and some that may even cover balding thinning areas. Hairstyle changes can help to hide balding or thinning hair, although this might be easier for women than men to do.


HAIR LOSS MYTHS

Dyes, hair sprays, and teasing the hair can make it appear thicker. Hair colors, sprays, teasing, and frequent washing will NOT cause hair loss. There is some discussion about this issue. Some shampoos claim to grow hair by unclogging follicles. This has not been proven effective. These are used at best at your own risk.
