Toronto Hair Transplant: What Are The Most Common Hair Loss Types?

Safest Hair Transplant Surgery

Reasons people seek hair restoration?

There’s no doubt that for men and women suffering hair loss, hair transplant surgery is the safest, effective way to restore it. The reasons people seek hair restoration vary, however. Here, we’ll list 3 of the most common reasons that people consider FUE redistribute their real, growing hair and get back their confidence from the Nova Medical Hair Transplant Clinic

Androgenic Alopecia

This genetic, progressive form of hair loss tends to run in families. Men and women suffer from androgenic alopecia, but far higher numbers of men present with this patterned balding. That’s why it’s commonly referred to as male pattern baldness. The characteristic receding hairline, thinning crown, and eventual horseshoe-shaped band of remaining hair are easily recognized by most people. The hair follicles are sensitive to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) a hormone that triggers miniaturizing of the hairs. Over time, follicles produce more delicate strands and eventually, none. Women with hereditary hair loss will usually keep their hairline intact but see thinning all over the scalp. This type of hair loss accounts for most Toronto hair transplant patients.

Age-Related Hair Loss, or Involutional Alopecia

This type is relatively wide-spread and occurs in both men and women. The onset is usually after age 50. The progress is from more subtle and slow, with more follicles resting at any given time than the patient previously had. Their hair becomes thinner, and losses aren’t as rapidly replaced.

Traction Alopecia

For those who regularly wear tight, braided or dreadlocked hairstyles, this type of balding is common. As well, tight buns, ponytails or hair weaves can lead to what’s known as traction alopecia. The hair roots let go from the follicle, and though they may initially grow back, if the tension is chronic, bald patches and receding can be permanent.

Signs of traction alopecia are usually most visible at the hairline. Hair transplant techniques can restore a patient’s hair and wearing loose, tension-free styles will be recommended for long term maintenance.

Do you know what’s causing your hair loss?

Before undergoing a hair transplant, Toronto surgeons meet with clients to discuss their concerns and examine their scalp. There can be numerous different causes for shedding and balding besides these top 3. Medications, nutritional deficits, diseases, stress or trauma may all play a role. The good news for you is in most of those cases; the hair will grow back.

It’s essential to discuss your health picture with your hair specialist so that together, you can develop your restoration plan. Your strategy may include hair grafts, along with PRP injections, laser light therapy or even nutritional therapy.
