How do I cure my androgenetic alopecia?
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.

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.

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

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.

Sir Mera Hair Fall Ho Raha Hai
Male | 18
Hair loss is something that can happen due to several factors. However, the main reasons for this occurrence are the intensity of the hair, the distribution of hairs, the underlying disorders, and genetics. A few symptoms of hair fall include either a bigger size comb or more hair on your clothes that are normally covered in hair and thinning of hair. Assess your diet and get enough rest. Be gentle on your hair using soft hair care products and don't do tight hairstyles. If the problem progresses then ask a dermatologist for help.

Meri 21 year age hai or mere bal hair kine piche ki or ja rahi hai so plz treetment kya kare.?
Male | 21
For 21 yr old males receding of the hairline is the beginning of Androgenic Alopecia or male pattern baldness. It needs to be evaluated at this stage if the progression can be significantly delayed by means of local applications and therapies and if it had already receded to an extent that the person is not comfortable by just stopping further loss but wants a correction or in other words want to get his original hairline back then hair transplant is a straight forward and easy option and a long term solution.

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.

Male | 19
Your hair is falling out severely and you are experiencing baldness in the central part of your scalp. This could be a case of alopecia areata. Symptoms include sudden loss of hair in patches. Psychological pressure, heredity, or autoimmune disorders may be the reasons for this. Consult a dermatologist who can recommend treatments such as topical medications or injections to stimulate hair growth.

My hair are getting thinner day by day and it is genetic disorder because my father and his father are also bald ,suggest me something on this please
Male | 22
You are experiencing hair loss due to a hereditary condition known as male pattern baldness. This is a common issue often inherited from family members. A key symptom is that your hair will gradually become thinner. Unfortunately, this type of hair loss is difficult to cure, and there's no guaranteed solution to stop it completely. However, there are options to potentially slow down the process, such as medications or hair restoration procedures. Consult a dermatologist or a hair specialist to determine the best treatment for your situation.

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.
