Three Ways To Get Hair On Your Bald Spot
The vast majority of men will suffer from some level of baldness in their life time. Whether it is thinning hair, bald spots, or total baldness almost all men have to deal with it. Now that the average population age in the US is getting older this is a big problem. Baldness is not appreciated in this culture. This offers a lot of opportunity for people to sell hair growth treatments. THere are three possible treatments to check out if your are bald.
The first one is my favorite hair implants. I think this is the best procedure because it can last for years. It uses a person’s own hair so there is not a problem with matching. When these were first tried in the 50's they were known as hair plugs because they looked like doll hair plugs. But with the new procedures this is now a great way to grow hair in a bald spot. With this method the surgeon transplants growing hair follicles from one section of your scalp to another that is bald. The hair follicles live and grow just like they did in the donor area which looks very natural.
The next method is hair replacement systems. You probably don’t know them by this name. They are also known as toupee’s. The reason for the name change is the word toupee’ has come to be associated with comedy. How many tiems have you watched a movie where the guy loses his hair at inopportune times? The word itself makes a person laugh because of all the funny images. That is a real blow to the comanies trying to sell the products. Because of this they had to change the name. Hair replacement systems are actually a very good, cheap way to get a full head of hair. They are very well matched to your hair color and texture. Also, the attachment problems have been taken care of. You should check these out if you are on a tight budget.
The third method is the laser comb. I can’t recommend this simply because there have not been scientific studies to prove it works. There is a lot of anecdotal evidence from users about how well it grows hair. But there are have been no blind studies completed at this time. The theory seems to make sense. The laser comb heats the scalp which should increase blood flow. Male pattern baldness is caused by a decrease in blood flow to the hair follicles. Thus it may prove beneficial but we are waiting for scientific substantiation.
These are three possibilities to help you grow your hair. If you are embarrassed by balding you need to try something because bald men are thought to be many years older than their actual age. Check out these options and see if any is right for you.
