Is Hair Transplant The Best Option To Stop Receding Hairline?

Hair loss is a global issue and is equally demotivating and traumatising mentally and emotionally. Pattern baldness referred to as “androgenic alopecia” usually happens due to an interplay of three crucial features: Genetics, Hormones and Age. The factors are common in both the genders however the difference is in the pattern of hair loss.

Hair loss involves the front and the vertex area in males and central region of scalp in females. In men, it starts by either a receding hairline or a visible hair loss in patches around the vertex area. Eventually, as hair loss progresses, the bald patches kind of merge together to form a big bald patch and in advanced stages, it leaves only a flock of hair at the back and sides of the head. In women, the pattern of hair loss is different and is mostly not a receding hairline, there is uniform hair loss from all over the scalp which usually starts from around the parting line. In this article we talk about the receding hairline in men

Receding hairline in male pattern baldnessrefers to drifting of the hairline backwards thereby exposing a larger forehead. However, the receding hairline related to pattern baldness should not be confused with a mature hairline which is symbolic of natural ageing in adult male. The mature hairline perimeters the frontal area and the temporal triangles. So with pattern hair loss, the temporal triangles begin to recede at a faster rate as compared to the frontal area, thus, there is a formation of a V shaped pattern often called as “Widow’s peak”. It is expected to affect almost 80% of males by the age of 50 and male pattern baldness account for more than 95% of hair loss in men. Hence, the problem is widespread. Let’s now understand some treatment strategies to deal with a receding hairline (after your surgeon has confirmed that you are dealing with pattern baldness and not some temporary hair loss)

1. Medications and topical treatments: Medications like minoxidil and finasteride are frequently advised in the marketas a solution for early baldness cases as they affect the thinning of hair and slow down the progression of the same.However, the thinning and hair loss continues once the medications are stopped

2. Prosthetic hairs and wigs: These temporary aids need frequent replacements and are high on maintenance. Also, they appear to be unnatural.

3. Hair transplant procedures: These are treated as the most effective solution if one has to deal heads-on with the problem of hair loss. The reasons are simple, hair transplant offers the most permanent and natural looking results including a hairline design by an expert surgeon. Hair transplant basically involves extracting hair follicles from patient’s own body (well-known donor areas) and transplanting them at the bald sites. Since, the hair follicles are natural, hence, the hair that grow out from these follicles at the bald site are natural. The only due care that should be taken is about designing a hairline and ensuring minimum possible damage to hair follicles during the procedure for which one has to rely on an experienced and expert surgeon. Further, it is very low on maintenance and in progressive cases of high grade baldness or receding hairlines several sittings could be performed.
