Stop your hair loss before it leads to baldness

With recent technology and continuously developed techniques, means that hair loss does not have to lead to balding and can be prevented within the early stages. The process of hair loss is natural and cannot be prevented, however when noticed early it can be treated and therefore prevention of further hair loss can now be achieved with a number of solutions.

As hair loss is a complex polygenic trait and is caused by the interplay between genes, up to 5 genes are responsible for baldness and determine the specifics of male pattern hair loss. You can find out more information of the causes of hair loss by clicking here.

So how can we treat hair loss before it results in baldness?

There are a number of solutions to consider, all of which will depend on how server your hair loss condition is. The right treatment can be determined in a hair loss assessment at a professional clinic, we do advise that you find a reputable clinic and in the UK as many patients have faced complications by opting for cheaper solutions abroad.

Hair loss treatment option 1 - Minoxidil 

Minoxidil is a clinically proven treatment which is suitable for both men and women. This treatment has been medically proven for androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern hair loss) but is also known to be effective for various other hair loss conditions. It is a liquid form which is applied to the area once or twice a day depending on the formulation prescribed.

There is a 5% version available over the counter and is more commonly known as Regaine. The Minoxidil at 5% has been reviewed by patients as not very successful, resulting in the patients seeking further solutions and consultation.

Patients that have tried to treat their condition with Minoxidil are often amazed at the results afforded by a course of Finasteride which both improves the aesthetic appearance of existing hair and halts hair loss for those follicles which have not yet been killed by DHT.

Hair Loss Treatment option 2 - Finasteride

Sadly Finasteride is not suitable for women, however it is an effective treatment for men and has been created to treat mild to moderate male pattern hair loss on the top of the head. 

This tablet form of medication can be taken daily and many patients have used this treatment for a period of up to 10 years. There is in fact over 1 million men using this drug in the US alone who have said that it has improved the thickness of their hair resulting in better confidence and self esteem. 

There are over 10 million users worldwide using this hair loss treatment who are satisfied with its results and for prolonging the life of their hair. 

In a 2 year study by a panel of independent dermatologists globally, gave their results on Finasteride which were:

99% of patients had no further hair loss and 67% of patients were able to grow new hair with increased coverage. 

Hair Loss Treatment option 3 - Hair Transplant Surgery 

Hair transplants seem to be the most permanent and effective option for hair loss and can completely transform someones image and confidence. There are different procedures and techniques involved, the suitable treatment for you would be determined in a hair loss consultation to access the area and condition. The two main procedures which hair transplants fall into are FUE transplantation and Strip or FUT transplantation. 

FUT which stands for Follicular Unit Transplant uses a technique which extracts of a narrow piece of skin from the donor site under local anaesthetic. Once removed, the strip of skin is dissected under powerful laboratory microscopes into individual follicular units in preparation for implantation.

FUE stands for Follicular Unit Extraction and refers to the technique via which a small round punch is used to extract units of hair follicles one by one from an area of dense hair growth to an area of baldness. Each unit contains one to four hairs. Extraction is directly from the scalp.

There is also a new revolutionised hair transplant procedure now available known as the Maxi hair transplant which is regarded as the most effective of all 3. You can find out more about maxi hair transplants by clicking here. 

The cost of hair transplants will depend on the type of procedure you opt for and how many follicles you will need replacing which will then determine whether you need a Strip transplant of an FUE transplant. We have found that UK Hair Transplant Clinics, who are the UK's leading hair restoration clinic are currently running a promotion offer with savings of between £1000 and £2000.

Do women prefer men with hair?

Do women prefer men with hair? I have tried to find research studies to give me statistics as to what a woman's preference is, bald or hair? Sadly the information I have found is inconclusive, women don't have a clue what they want. 

So instead I decided to do my own small study in my work place. I asked the only four females I work with what do they prefer men with hair or without and all four said they prefer men with hair. So there we have ladies and gentlemen 4/4, women prefer men with hair! 

Let's take a look at why. Here we have a range of photos of men who have lost their hair then undergone hair transplant surgery, although we cannot see their faces we don't really need to to determine whether they look better bald or with hair so time to judge...

   You may find men with bald or less hair irresistibly attractive or you may find them a huge turn off. Each to their own ladies, I mean look at Jason Statham he's beautiful. Not all men are movie stars but you can have movie star locks, it's not over yet!

Non-surgical Hair Loss Solutions | UK Hair Transplants

Non-surgical Treatments are usually pushed aside by most hair loss patients, however with new discoveries being made every day, non-surgical treatments are becoming more popular and practical.

Although surgical treatments come with a guarantee, some patients simply do not have the time to under go the surgery and recovery process. Non-surgical treatments work in two ways - 1. To improve the look of existing hair and prevent further hair loss. 2. To prevent or completely eliminate any chance of further hair loss in the already damaged hair and to retain the damaged hair. 

However, unlike surgical treatments, non-surgical treatments such as Monoxidil cannot guarantee improvements to all patients. It all depends on your hair type, Monoxidil 5% is clinically proven to work on men and women with alopicea. Monoxidil 5% is a tropical liquid used for pattern hair loss. The liquid can be applied to the hair once or twice a day depending on your prescription provided on the basis of your hair type and is available over the counter to most people. However, a large number of patients do choose to have a consultation as Monoxidil has shown very little or no improvements. 

For patients who do choose to stick with non-surgical treatments, UK hair tends to recommend Finastride, the results of which have amazed almost every patient whom has chosen to try it. Finastride works to completely halt and improve the look of almost any hair loss types. Finastride works best on male baldness. This is because it works to halt the function of DHT, a male hormone which causes hair loss. DHT affects the hair by shortening the growth phase of the hair. This causes the hair to thin out and shorten, which eventually causes the growth process to halt all together. 

UK Hair Transplants are happy to provide consultations and Surgeon Approved Treatment Plans which intend to create a plan, personalised to each patient and their hair type, to get you the fastest and most long lasting/permanent results possible.
