How to Get a Hair Transaplant (Real Examples)14 Jan

Example 1

Marcus

The audio file on the incredibly useful hair transplant website The Bald Truth features Marcus, a patient who has had a hair transplant and has effectively seen all of the tricks of the trade in doing homework on various doctors and clinics. In fact, he also had some problems as a result of poor choices to begin with.

Marcus offers the advice of going to a skilled physician for a hair transplant. He said that staying close to home is often a key to getting the best possible experience but not if the doctor has a lower level of skill than a better doctor elsewhere. The best options as to how to get a hair transplant are therefore not always the most obvious. You should also choose a doctor that you are comfortable with and offers the best possible level of aftercare. These two factors alone should dictate your choice.

How to get a hair transplant03 Apr

The best way to medically restore hair from chronic hair loss is a surgery known as a hair transplant. There are two types of hair transplant procedures:

  • Strip hair transplant
  • FIT (Follicular Isolation Technique)

The strip technique involves taking a surgical knife and slicing a wedge of tissue that is one-inch wide from the back of the head, which is the acceptable donor region of active hair follicles. These hair follicles would then be harvested from the tissue and be implanted in the tissue of the part(s) of the head, which have been victimized by hair loss.

FIT was engineered not to leave a scar like that of the strip technique. This process involves removing one hair follicle at a time.

How to use Nizoral to help stop hair loss03 Apr

Nizoral is an anti fungal shampoo well known for treating dandruff – its role in helping people with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) has recently been touted after studies showing its efficacy in people with genetic hair loss.

How Nizoral may help to stop hair loss

Ketoconazole, the main ingredient in Nizoral, acts as a relatively mild anti-androgen. Androgen, a hormone that binds to receptors in the hair follicles can lead to the shrinking of these follicles.

Anti-androgen

Of course, when the follicles shrink the life cycle of the hair becomes shorter with every cycle, this leads to hair miniaturization. By reducing the binding of di-hydrotestosterone or DHT, Nizoral helps to reverse or slow down the process of hair loss.

  • Nizoral should not be seen as a hair loss treatment in it own right – rather a treatment that will enhance the effectiveness of other more potent hair loss treatments such as minoxidil and propecia. Used regularly, Nizoral could significantly boost the result of treatments like minoxidil because it creates a scalp with reduced

How to determine whether Retin-A is beneficial for your hair loss03 Apr

The idea of Retin-A helping people with hair loss stems mainly as a result of its side effects of growing hair in some people treated for skin conditions such as acne.

The use of Retin-A to aid hair growth and offset hair loss is being strongly debated within the hair loss industry. Thus far, studies proving its efficacy in aiding hair growth in people with androgenetic alopecia or male pattern baldness (MPB) seems, at best, to perhaps slightly improve the performance of minoxidil, the most well known hair growth stimulant.

However, due to some side effects experienced by substantial number of Retin-A users, doubts about its long-term benefits in hair loss treatment still linger.

The best way to determine whether one should use Retin A to boost hair growth is probably to look at the pros and cons of using Retin-A.

How is Retin-A supposed to help hair growth?
