subject: Reasons of Hair Loss in Women [print this page] The more permanent treatment is surgeryThe more permanent treatment is surgery. Hair transplant women suffering from androgenetic alopecia can benefit from this. The procedure is the same as that performed in the men; grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically unaffected by balding are transplanted to bald scalp. The only setback is that there should be enough donor area that is not affected by androgenetic alopecia. Women who have very diffused hair loss throughout their head are normally not good candidates for hair transplant.
