Hair loss can be caused by a number of factors, including aging, hormonal changes, or it can even be hereditary. The loss of hair can also be the result of burns or trauma. While hair loss is predominantly found in the male population, even females can suffer from hair loss. If you are looking for an effective treatment to hair loss, hair replacement is available at the practice of Dr. Daniel Rousso, located here in Birmingham, Alabama.
Hair replacement is a surgical procedure that has been done for over 40 years. During this procedure, hair from normal areas of the scalp, such as the back and sides, is moved to the bald area. The transplanted hair should last a lifetime, or at least as long as the hair remains in the region from which the transplants were taken. At our Alabama clinic, we are now recommending to our hair replacement patients that they also take Propecia, an oral medication, in order to yield the best cosmetic results and add to the overall effect of surgery. Unfortunately, Propecia is not helpful for female pattern hair loss and hair transplants are still the best treatment for female pattern hair loss. Hair replacement can be remarkably effective for most female patients.
