subject: Are You Suffering From Men's Hair Loss? [print this page] Almost every man in the western world worries about Men's hair loss. In other parts of the world, baldness and hair loss are seen as signs of virility. Preventing this and shaming men for it is a common reaction though, in the western world. In today's world though, there are different routes available to help one deal with losing your hair. From hair replacement therapies to understanding the underlying causes of the loss in the first place, you have lots of options available to you. We will discuss what some of these options are.
Surgical treatment is one of the first things many men consider in treating hair loss. This is a process of surgically planting new follicles into your scalp. It does seem a little like getting a skin graft only really it's planting hair instead. Unfortunately not every man will have the same success and some will even look worse after this procedure. Some have reported poor to no success with this procedure causing them to actually look worse than prior to surgery. Yet some men find the results pleasant. Some will immediately see big problems. A good skin doctor will take the time to go over the procedure thoroughly with you before recommending you do it. Another treatment method is the widely known Rogaine option. Marketing for Rogaine can be seen on almost any channel for more than two decades now. Rogaine is one of two FDA approved methods for re-growing hair. This hair growth treatment is done topically. Men are instructed to apply the product directly to the scalp to stimulate hair growth. If you desire completely natural hair rather than fake toupee's this might be the solution for you. The one drawback to Rogaine is that you can't just use it until the issue is resolved, you must continue use.
Laser Combs have also become very popular methods for fighting back against hair loss. The Laser Comb method is simply a series of laser "combs" that are used to stimulate the scalp and promote new hair growth. This method has not yet been approved by the FDA but they are in the process of clearing it. Many swear by Laser Comb treatment to reduce the effects of hair loss. Your physcian should be your sounding board when considering hair loss treatment. This method might just be the perfect one for you.
Your thinning or receeding hairline is most likely the result of one of many conditions involving hair and scalp care. You must figure out the underlying cause before you go spending money on useless treatments. You need the close supervision of a physician to determine what your best course of action might be. If you have difficulty finding one consult a dermatologist for more help.
There are answers; you just need to work to find them!
