Hair Loss in Men

A FRIENDLY TEAM AT YOUR SERVICE

There are many people who are aware of the fact that losing up to a 100 hair a day is normal; however, there would also be many who would not be aware of when this normal hair loss turns into a more serious condition. As a matter of fact, many men suddenly notice that there is a huge bald patch on the top of their head.

Hair loss is actually a much more common problem than most people would think – but diagnosing the type of hair loss is imperative and this is something that only an experienced professional can do. There are causes to be analysed and types to be looked into, before a course of action can be decided.

Types of Hair Loss in Men

Androgenetic Alopecia

Commonly known as male pattern baldness, androgenetic alopecia is quite widespread. The balding will start in the form of thinning around the temples and the same will slowly progress towards the back of the head. Eventually, there will be a bald patch on the top of the head. The condition is often genetic and the hair follicles are often sensitive to dihydrotestosterone or DHT. The falling out of hair will be gradual and the chances of new hair growing will be minimal.

Alopecia Areata

This is an autoimmune condition, which can cause small patches where hair is missing or it could even lead to the complete loss of body hair. There are three further subdivisions in this condition – alopecia monolocularis, alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis, each of which presents differently.

Cicatricial or Scarring Alopecia

This is actually a serious condition, and also quite rare. The hair follicles are destroyed from within and since the condition is not easy to detect, it is often diagnosed a little too late, leaving little scope for hair regrowth.

Traction Alopecia

Pulled back hair might seem like a good hairstyle, but over a period of time, such hair styles will make the hair follicles weak. This in turn will make the hair more susceptible to breakage and if the habit continues, the hair loss might become permanent.

Trichotillomania

A medical condition, wherein which the person has an uncontrollable urge to pull out one’s own hair. When the person is under stress or is nervous or anxious, he will find solace in pulling out hair, leading to bald patches.

How Does Hair Loss Progresses in Men

The Process of Diagnosis

It is crucial that a thorough physical examination be done and the history of the patient is looked into. Certain lab tests might be recommended, in order to gain a complete and comprehensive patient assessment. These tests could include:

Iron, total iron-binding capacity and transferrin saturation, which will allow the measurement of the exact amount of iron deficiency and detect the presence of telogen effluvium
Thyrotropin levels
A biopsy and histology might be required to detect any infections

Treatment for Hair Loss at AK Clinics

The most common hair loss problem in men & women is Androgenetic Alopecia which is mostly observed in patients. But there are also other reasons behind the hair loss which varies from person to person and therefore the treatment should be different too. After the detailed diagnosis of your hair loss, our physicians then led through a best and tailored treatment plan accordingly. Your treatment plan may include;

Cyclic Therapy

Surgical In cyclic therapy, our physician can prescribes you the topical, oral or other supplements required for the hair growth. These are given in the combinations to avoid the nutrient-nutrient interaction and to enhance the absorption. In therapy, physician may prescribe minoxidil, finasteride, biotin, multivitamins, zinc or other hair growth supplements.

Hair Gain Therapy

At our clinic, we offer hair gain or restoration therapies for the patients who do not have excessive hair fall. These therapies promote the hair growth and encourage slow hair follicles to grow at a better rate. These therapies include ‘Low Level Laser Therapy’ & ‘Bio therapy’. Both the therapies accelerate the hair growth rate.

Stand Alone Therapies

Biotherapy, Low Level Laser Therapy or Mesotherapy are stand alone therapies. In Biotherapy, growth factors are infused into the scalp while in Low-Level Laser therapy, low powered cold laser is passed to the hair roots which accelerate the hair growth. In Mesotherapy, micro injections are used to deliver the medication to the demarcated parts of the scalp resulting in the nourishment & hair growth.

Surgical Methods

There are surgical methods if your hair loss has settled and you have bald patches. The two of the most commonly used surgical methods are FUT or follicular unit transplant or FUE or follicular unit extraction. We have our own trademarked procedure i.e. Bio FUE which is an advanced version of FUE which results in faster healing and better natural results.
