All You Need To Know About Hair Loss Treatments

Hair loss or hair thinning is a common problem for many adults throughout the globe. There are numerous reasons for hair loss, each differing from individual to individual. The more typical reasons may include hereditary causes, but other factors such as poor diet and medical complications may feature.

Nowadays, hair loss is not a permanent problem and can be treated effectively with different methods including various hair loss treatments.

One of the most popular and well-known forms of hair loss treatments is a surgical procedure known as a 'follicle follicular transfer'.

This surgery involves transplanting growing hairs from various areas on an individual's head to the affected, balding areas. It is an intricate process and requires a great deal of skill and experience to complete adequately.

The follicle follicular transfer is conducted in three phases. The first phase is the extraction phase, the second the healing phase, and the third the implantation phase.

If the transfer is successful the hair will take root and grow within 3 to 5 months after the operation. This treatment is recommended for individuals whom have suffered severe hair loss.

While some individuals will be willing to undergo formal medical procedures in an attempt to reduce or reverse hair loss, some would rather use external agents as a remedy. If this is the case, doctors can offer the option of pharmaceutical medications.

Hair loss treatments come in the forms of oils, ointments, creams and tablets. The most popular and reputable oral medication is that of Minoxidil.

Minoxidil is an over-the-counter prescription that contains the nitric oxide chemical 'moiety' which assists in not only reducing hair loss, but also helps with hair growth.

Unfortunately, Minoxidil has some side-effects which must be considered before use - burning eyes, irritation of the treated area and unwanted hair growth on various other parts of the body other than the head.

One must also be aware of possible allergic reactions such as swelling of the mouth and lips or dizziness and increased heart rate.

Another well-known oral medication which may be used is Finasteride. Unlike Minoxidil, Finasteride is exclusively for males and is famous for use in reversing the effects of male pattern baldness.

Research has indicated that at least 3 out of every 5 men suffering male pattern baldness experience regrowth when taking this drug. However, Finasteride should not be used for individuals with severe hair loss and is recommended for those with mild to moderate hair thinning.


One of the more organic options when facing hair loss, for males and females, is vitamins. The introduction of certain vitamins and supplements into one's diet has been seen to lead to either halting in or reduction of hair loss. Through regular and long-term intake of vitamin B, B5, B6 and B3 some hair growth may be seen.

In conclusion, while hair loss is a rising problem there are methods to treat the difficulty. Whether one chooses surgical procedures or the more natural introduction of vitamins into a diet, hair loss treatment should work for those who engage in it fully.
