Male Pattern Baldness
Let's
talk about male pattern baldness — the simplest
of all hair loss to understand but the hardest to
treat. We all know that calvities "baldness" in
men is genetic. This condition passes on from generation
to generation, sometimes skipping one child or another
but sooner or later you are the "lucky" one to inherit
not only the "hairless" genes but also you inherit
normal to high male sex hormones. With this combination;
you can be sure that you will be losing hair.
Science
has made good strides towards understanding the
problem. We know that 80% of men are losing hair.
These statistics can be devastating to a young man
in his late teens or early twenties. But you must
not lose hope; real help is at hand. The sooner
you see a Trichologist or a Doctor who works with
a Trichologist to start the treatments, the better
chance you have to stop hair loss.

Thompson, trichologist at the National Center Of
Trichology, can accurately calculate your rate of
hair loss by examining microscopically or with the
modern instrument called the Capillicare. With the
Capillicare, the densitometry of the hair can be
measured. The trichogram (which examines the hair
in their life stages- anagens, catagens, telogens)
shows the condition of the hair strands itself.
The recommended length of treatment is 6 months
to one year. The treatments include low level laser
light therapy, organic shampoos, conditioners, toners,
capillar mask, Dr. Kingsley's specialized hair and
scalp massage, topical therapy, minoxidil or herbal
tonics known to promote hair growth, nutritional
supplements and Propecia. These treatments are medically
supervised.
