On this page, we discuss a number of factors surrounding male and female hair loss and offer tips for fighting hairloss using all natual supplements to providing an insight into hair transplants.

What Causes Hair Loss?

Why do some men keep their hair well into old age while others begin losing their hair at a young age?

A Genetic Problem?

For most men who are losing their hair before they'd like to, the answer is genetic. Hair loss, like eye color, is an inherited trait. While you were still forming in the womb, your hair follicles were being genetically coded. If genes responsible for hair loss were present, they made the hair follicles on top of your head sensitive to the hormone dihydrotestosterone, or DHT. These follicles were then predisposed to begin shrinking when you reached adulthood.

Unfortunately, once this genetic process begins, it will continue throughout your lifetime. As the hairs produced by your ever-shrinking follicles become finer and finer, they will begin failing to grow to normal length. And what is first noticed as "thinning hair" or a "receding hairline" progresses to baldness when the shrinking follicles finally stop producing any hair at all.

Natural Hair Loss Supplements Procerin comes in a convenient tablet form and topical solution that are used daily for the treatment of male hair loss. Procerin is an all-natural supplement available without a prescription. While there are several causes of hair loss, Procerin is effective in reversing hair loss in men caused by androgenetic alopecia, the most common cause of male hair loss. Androgenetic alopecia results in thinning hair and the familiar receding hairline (or widow's peak). Men suffering from androgenetic alopecia have elevated levels of a chemical called dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in their scalp. DHT is a by-product of the male hormone testosterone, which is responsible for masculine characteristics. When testosterone gets converted to DHT, the result is hair loss. Procerin's active ingredients are specifically formulated to block this transformation into DHT by the human body. For more information about this hair loss supplement, please visit Procerin.

Popular Misconceptions

For many years our schools have taught — quite erroneously — that hair loss is always inherited from the mother's father. Medical science now knows that baldness genes are passed down from both sides of the family. They also can skip generations, and are utterly random in terms of which siblings they will affect; it is quite common for a man keep a full head of hair while his brother goes bald in his twenties.

How Important Is Hair Care?

Contrary to common belief, hair loss is not caused by a failure to take good care of your hair. Consumers waste millions of dollars on shampoos and phony, non-FDA approved treatments. (Only two medications, Rogaine and Propecia, have ever been approved by the FDA to treat hair loss.) We have counseled too many men who held themselves responsible for their hair loss. It is important to understand that with very few exceptions our hair follicles are going to live or die by their genetic coding — and nothing else.

Medical science is still searching for a complete understanding of the biochemical processes that occur within our hair follicles.

How to achieve natural hair transplant results Today, when done right, hair transplant surgery can produce results that are so natural that even hair stylists cannot detect them. But the key is finding the right hair restoration physician. It’s tough deciding who to choose. They all claim to provide natural and safe results. But in reality their skill, experience and talent vary widely, as do the end results. Where to find and learn about outstanding hair restoration surgeons It’s easy to find physicians offering hair transplants in any phone book or online directory. But to find the minority who provide truly natural and outstanding hair transplant results we recommend the following online resources:

To find prescreened hair restoration physicians visit: Hair Loss Learning Center Hair Restoration Network Hair Transplant Network

Hair Restoration Network – This online community is published by hair transplant patients and enables hair loss sufferers to share information, photos and experiences, while learning about leading hair restoration physicians and safe and treatments.

Tips for choosing a hair transplant surgeon - sponsored by:

• Does the physician take a holistic approach to hair restoration? Your physician should help you evaluate all your options, surgical and non surgical.
• Has the clinic made the investment in time and resources to do large sessions of micro follicular unit hair transplantation? Doing outstanding work requires a staff dedicated and trained to use high-powered magnification with the capability of producing at least 2,000 carefully trimmed grafts per surgical session.
• Choose a hair restoration clinic that is patient focused rather than commercially focused. Some clinics emphasize revenue, speed and volume rather than dedicating the time and individual care needed to produce optimal results.
• Is hair restoration the primary focus of their practice? Outstanding results require a physician and a full staff who perform hair restoration surgery on a regular basis. Doing hair restoration as a sideline, along with other cosmetic procedures, may hinder their ability to do large sessions of highly refined follicular unit transplantation.
• How many patients has this physician produced excellent results for? Like any skill, experience over time is critical to acquiring the skill and judgment required to produce excellent results.
• Can the physician provide at least a dozen sets of detailed patient before and after photographs? Do they also have patients who are willing to speak with you and meet with you in person?
• What is the physician’s reputation on hair loss related discussion forums? To learn what patients are saying about hair transplant physicians and hair loss treatments visit the Hair Restoration Forum.
