WOMEN'S HAIR LOSS – Resource

Female hair loss is an issue that
affects over 18% of women in the U.S. Fortunately,
Imaging International can help. With recent innovations in the area of hair restoration,
females may now take advantage of non-surgical, European hair system, which in
most cases provides excellent results.
Androgenetic
Alopecia (“Pattern Baldness”) is the most common type of hair loss affecting
women today. Normally, the hair loss occurs at times of hormonal changes
such as contraception, childbirth or menopause.
Unlike
“Male Pattern Baldness,” women’s hair loss will take on a unique recession
pattern. Most often the hair loss
occurs either in the temple area or the hair thins in a triangle pattern in the
center of the scalp.
2 TYPES OF HAIR
LOSS:
GENETIC HAIR LOSS:
Female
Pattern Baldness may result from a genetic predisposition to hair loss caused by
an abnormally high level of hormones.
·
Alopecia Areata:
results in patchy hair loss throughout the scalp area
·
Alopecia Totalis:
causes hair loss throughout the entire scalp and body
NON-GENETIC HAIR LOSS:
Clinical
research had categorized two types of non-genetic hair loss:
·
Anagen effluvuim:
Results
from chemotherapy agents or medications known to cause hair loss.
·
Telogen effluvium:
More
common version of hair loss due to hair follicles entering the resting stage.
OTHER
CONSIDERATIONS WHICH MAY CAUSE HAIR LOSS:
·
Hormonal Causes
(menopause, pregnancy and birth control)
·
Dietary
Considerations (significant loss of weight)
·
Physical
& Emotional Stress (surgery, illness or high stress levels)
·
Thyroid
Abnormalities (high levels of Vit. A or blood pressure medication)
Before considering any hair
restoration options, one should always consult a qualified physician prior to
beginning any treatments
