Que: I would like to know more about how the loss of hair is calculated and whether I would be an ideal candidate for a hair transplant? I would also like to know more about the ideal age for the procedure.

Ans: If your hair loss has started only recently, there are several chances of redemption for you, however if you need a proper diagnosis, you will have to meet a specialist. Once the cause and type of hair loss has been diagnosed, it will be easier to chart out a course of treatment. In most cases, we would suggest a non-invasive course of treatment first and only if the results are not satisfactory enough, will we go in for a hair transplant.
