Allopathic Treatment
Although there is no cure, a number of treatments are available that can effectively slow or reduce hair loss and stimulate partial regrowth.Surgical treatment involving hair transplantation by a hair transplant surgeon can be helpful for some men with advanced balding.
Causes of hair loss
Hair is in a constant cycle of growth, rest and renewal – it is natural to lose some hair each day. It
is likely that several genes determine the susceptibility to baldness. Some of these genes come
from the mother’s side and some from the father’s side of the family.
Androgenetic hair loss is caused by androgen hormones (produced in different amounts by both
males and females) and occurs in people with a genetic susceptibility.
Other possible causes of hair loss include alopecia areata (an autoimmune disorder that causes
inflammation of the hair root), cancer chemotherapy, burns or injuries, nervous habits such as
continual hair pulling or scalp rubbing, ringworm of the scalp and rough handling. Long-term
illness, major surgery and high fever may cause temporary hair loss.

Treatment for hair loss
Treatment aims to slow or reduce hair loss, stimulate partial regrowth or replace damaged hair.
Surgical treatment involving hair transplantation is available from hair transplant surgeons and can be helpful for some men with advanced balding.
Non-surgical treatments include lotions and tablets. These generally need to be used continuously
to maintain regrowth. If treatment is stopped, regrowth ceases and hair loss will start again.
Cosmetic options include wigs and hairpieces.
A number of other treatments have been suggested for hair loss including massage, vitamin
supplements, herbal remedies (such as saw palmetto), zinc, amino acids, hair lotions and tonics.
None of these has been shown to promote hair growth or prevent hair loss.
There is also no scientific evidence that the use of lasers is effective. If unsure, consult with your
doctor before starting treatment.



Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure for the treatment of hair loss that first became popular in the 1950s. Originally, large plugs of hair were used, which sometimes led to unsatisfactory and unnatural results.Currently, very small mini- and micro plugs of skin, containing one to five hairs, are used. Unlike the original large plugs, this modern technique does not produce very thick or dense hair growth. It appears more natural and, in many cases, is undetectable as a transplant.
