Hair loss can be a truly distressing condition, especially when it’s entirely natural. You simply lose parts of yourself, and it’s not guaranteed you’ll be comfortable or happy with how you’re changing. Unlike other signs of aging, however, reversing that hair loss looks natural, because it is natural. You can still age gracefully with a hair transplant. You can still have great hair if you invest in preventative medications.
To help you learn how to prevent (and reverse) hair loss, of course, we need to get into the meat of why you lose your hair, and how to stop it:
Causes of Hair LossÂ
There are many causes of hair loss. Hormone fluctuations, poor diet, poor sleep, and other medical conditions or even medication can cause it. If you suspect your hair loss might be due to one of those reasons, you need to get it checked out. In men, the three most common reasons include:Â
– Telogen Effluvium: This is hair loss due to stress on the body or mind.Â
– Alopecia Areata: This is an autoimmune condition that causes hair loss, usually in random patches.Â
– Androgenetic alopecia: This is the official name for male or female pattern baldness, and it is genetic.
How to Prevent Hair LossÂ
On top of living well and taking care of your body, you have these options to help you prevent hair loss:Â
Invest in Scalp Health: Use gentle treatments, hair-stimulating hair masks, and massages to encourage growth.Â
Take Preventative Hair Loss Medications: You can take minoxidil, finasteride, or corticosteroids (you will need to consult a doctor to learn which one’s best for you) to help slow down or even stop hair loss.Â
Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy: This is a new treatment method that hopes to help stimulate blood flow and scalp health by injecting plasma into the area.Â
Low-Level Laster Therapy: This method uses light therapy to help stimulate hair growth.Â
Hair Loss Recovery TreatmentsÂ
The best and only sure-fire way to truly recover lost hair is with hair transplants. In the past, this was done by taking a strip of skin and hair away, but those days are long gone. Today you can opt for FUE or DHI treatments, which work by extracting individual hair follicles and then placing them into a recipient area.
FUE does this by first organizing hairs into a graft, and DHI does this immediately. DHI offers more natural, more successful results on average, but does come at a higher price point.
Of course, you can save on the entirety of your hair loss treatment by leaving the country. Getting the best hair transplantation surgery Turkey has to offer is still going to be cheaper than sticking to a mid-range option in the UK. This is why so many men go to Turkey for hair transplants. In fact, people of all backgrounds head to this country for affordable cosmetic treatments.
So long as you do your research and choose a great clinic in Turkey, you can sit back and enjoy the cost savings while you finally get back your full head of hair.
