How do I cure my androgenetic alopecia?

Dr. Arvind Poswal

Hair Transplant Surgeon

Answered on 23rd May '24

Androgenic alopecia is a genetic problem that is triggered by epigenetic influences.

High quality, ultrarefined fue hair transplant surgery is the treatment of choice in case there is significant thinning/baldness.

In Hair transplant, one has to remember a few things-

1. Hair transplant is an ART. A natural result is very important. We take care of that by ensuring absolutely natural angles and directions of the transplanted grafts.

2. Equally important is density (how many grafts are transplanted per square centimetre). In 25 years of my experience, I have found that no one is satisfied by a low density hair transplant.

A great hair transplant, therefore, is one where the patient puts forward his choice of hairline design, on the one hand, and the doctor gives a natural look as well as the best possible density using all the available grafts from the patient's scalp, beard and body donor areas.

 

For the remaining areas, where the patient is noticing early hairfall or diffuse thinning, it's important to improve the epigenome of the patient.

Epigenome can be best described as the inner environment of the body, especially, around our genes. Epigenome is affected by a wide variety of things including diet, exercise, stress, illness, pollution etc. A stressed/flawed epigenome is why we find :

1. People losing hair 10 years before their previous generations.

2. Hairfall is preceded by an adverse event like an illness or change of diet, water or location.

Till recent times, doctors did not use to pay attention to these factors, taking them to be incidental in a disease largely governed by our genes.

However, correcting these epigenetic anomalies goes a long way in reducing or even reversing hairfall.

 

Epigenetic measures are more personalised according to patient history and involves feeding the hair follicle roots/stem cells by a microneedling based, home-use approach.

More details are available on request.

This is a genetic disease called androgenetic alopecia, which many people refer to as male or female pattern baldness with no absolute cure. Various treatments can help control the progression. Hair growth can be promoted and hair loss slowed down with the help of an over-the-counter medication called topical minoxidil. Orally administered prescribed medications like Finasteride can be used to suppress the effects of hormones that lead to hair loss. PRP treatment is showing promising results currently as solutions for encouraging growth of hair follicles. A visit to a dermatologist or hair specialist is necessary for an accurate diagnosis and recommendation of the most suitable treatment plan based on your condition and individual needs.

Sir i have hair fall problem can i do Keratin

Female | 33

Yes, you can undergo a Keratin hair treatment to help reduce hair fall. Keratin treatments are designed to help strengthen and nourish the hair and reduce breakage. However, it is important to keep in mind that Keratin treatments should not be used as a primary treatment for hair loss. You should speak to your doctor to determine the underlying cause of your hair loss and the best treatment options for you.

At 6 months post hair transplant I was happy with the results. At 12 months likewise. Even at 20 months I was was happy. My transplanted hair was less curly. Now at 22 months I noticed that my hair has thinned out. I have been taking propecia and oral minoxidil from the second month post hair transplant 5 mg per day with the exception that I missed the 21st month. Is this thinning normal ?

Male | 63

Noticing thinning at 22 months can be concerning. The truth is, hair thinning can occur even if the patient is taking medications like propecia and minoxidil. This could be due to various reasons such as genetics, stress, or missed doses of medications you mentioned in the 21st month. Talk about it with your medical team to find some solutions.

Hello sir good evening. Iam 32 years old i lost my hair from fore head and my beard and remaining head start turning to grey or white iam very very worried about that one plz suggest me some solution to keep my head and beard hair naturally black

Male | 32

Hair loss on the front and beard can be due to several factors including genes, stress or some health conditions. Genes and nutritional deficiencies may also cause premature greying of hair. I would recommend seeking professional advice from a dermatologist who will diagnose the underlying condition with subsequent provision of appropriate treatment options

Hello Doctor my name is Anup, I m sufferings from burn eyebrow need to transplant it should possible.

Male | 31

Yes,  burned eyebrows can be treated with eyebrow transplants. The procedure involves take hair follicles from some parts of your body and transplanting them in the area where your eyebrows are burnt. I advise you to please consult a reputed hair transplant surgeon for it. After proper evaluation, he will tell you whether you are eligible for eyebrow transplant or need some other treatment.

Baldness level 2 how much price to transplant hair

Male | 26

For a baldness level 2, where hair loss is relatively mild, the number of grafts needed may be lower compared to more advanced stages of baldness. Generally the cost is determined by the number of hair grafts required to cover the affected area.

Hair fall in teen age almost more than 50% hair vanished from scalp. I have also genetic hair loss what should I do to prevent it.

Male | 18

Androgenetic alopecia, or genetic hair loss, can start as early as the teenage years. Key signs include excessive hair fall and a widening part. This happens because hair follicles shrink over time. To slow down hair loss and promote regrowth, you can use treatments like minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia). Additionally, it's important to maintain a well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals essential for hair health.

Hello doctor, can females get hair transplant done for hairfall because of PCOS . Because I am just 31 now and suffering a lot of hair fall issues. I also have PCOS?

Female | 31

Yes.. we have routinely operated many PCOS females facing hair loss issues with great results.
Although it's important to note that the hair transplant procedure and the PCOS treatment should go hand in hand to give you the desired result.

When can i sleep on my side after hair transplant?

Male | 32

Hi, 
If your temple area also have been created while your hair transplant, in that case you need to be a little cautious about your sleeping patterns. You should try to sleep on your back for atleast 8-10 days, you should avoid to sleep on your chest or on side. Since in this period hair grafts tend to be fragile. So after 10-12 days of hair transplant you can start sleeping on your side.

I need hair replacement due to hair loss

Male | 57

There are a number of considerations if you are thinking of hair replacement from hair loss and there is an array of options, each with differing benefits. The surgical options such as hair transplant surgery FUE or FUT are lasting procedures that move your present hair follicles to the areas that are thinning. Some of the nonsurgical options include drugs such as minoxidil or finasteride, which retard hair loss and promote new growth or cosmetic solutions such as hair systems or wigs. The approach to use depends on patterns and area of coverage, overall health, and personal preference as such; a consultation with a dermatologist or a hair transplant specialist is important in order to determine the appropriate method that can be applied in your case.
