Hair Loss Can Be Addressed in Different Ways

Losing your hair gradually or in a short amount of time can certainly be emotionally distressing. It can also have an increasingly negative effect on your self-image and your general sense of self-esteem.

It’s worth noting that androgenetic alopecia is often related to genetic and hormonal factors as a man ages. Stress-related alopecia can affect either gender. This form of hair loss has many different associated factors, that could include genetics, environmental conditions, and stress as well as nutrition. Determining the factors associated with your hair loss is critical for determining the best treatment method.

Here at the Dermatology Center in Orem, Utah, our dermatological specialists can help determine the cause of your hair loss, while helping you to understand the potential treatment options needed to restore your full head of hair.

A hair transplantation treatment involves moving active hair follicles from the back or side of the head to the affected area of hair loss.

A scalp reduction treatment involves removing a small amount of the scalp in the balding area and editing an area with more dense hair follicles in place. This can help minimize the appearance of a bald spot.

A scalp expansion involves stretching the skin of your scalp over a period of time to increase the amount of hair coverage.
