Women's hair loss problems

Women’s Hair loss is a condition that can affect any women. It can be caused by many factors, including genetics, hormonal changes, aging, stress and so on.

In this section we will discuss hair loss in women and how it affects them. We will also talk about various treatments available for hair restoration.

If you are a woman with hair loss problem, this section might help you find the right treatment for your women’s hair loss condition.

Nearly 90% of the balding men in the country can take advantage of hair restoration surgery, but that may not be true for most women. Very few females have the type of hair loss that would make them suitable candidates – most individuals suffer from diffuse hair loss throughout all parts of their head, including the sides and back, which are typically considered donor sites for males wanting to undergo a procedure such as partial follicular unit extraction. Women suffering from male pattern baldness (or Androgenetic Alopecia) experience thinning throughout only specific regions on their scalp – namely, where DHT has been gradually shrinking follicles elsewhere on the head.

In men, the donor sites are the crown, that’s the area where the front of your head meets your forehead, and the back or frontal areas. The hair in those areas is not affected by DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, which shrinks follicles elsewhere on the head in many people with pattern baldness.

In women’s hair loss/female pattern baldness, however, these donor areas are usually unstable. They are thinning, just like the other areas of the head. The donor areas in women are affected by follicle-killing DHT. That means that if you remove hair and accompanying follicles from these donor areas in women and transplant them to other areas, it’s just going to fall out. Any doctor who would attempt to transplant hair from an unstable donor site is potentially unethical and may just be trying to take economic advantage of the patient.

Another difference between male and female pattern baldness/women’s hair loss is the frontal hairline. Unlike men, women with hair loss tend to keep their frontal hairline. They don’t have to worry about needing a hair transplant to frame their face and are instead more concerned about the loss of volume from the top and back. Hair transplants, though, don’t do much to increase volume. It just moves hair from one place to another.

In this comparison of male and female pattern baldness, the most obvious difference is the frontal hairline. Unlike women, men with hair loss tend to keep their frontal hairline. They don’t have to worry about needing a hair transplant to frame their face and are instead more concerned about the loss of volume from the top and back. Hair transplants, though, don’t do much to increase volume. It just moves hair from one place to another.

2% to 5% Women are Candidates – According to hair transplant surgeons only a small percentage of women are good candidates for hair transplant surgery. Natural Looking Results – Hair transplant surgery will give women a natural looking hairline and improved hair density after the procedure has been performed successfully. Saving Face – For some women a receding hairline can cause them to worry about how they look to others. Hair transplant surgery can restore their self-confidence.

  • Women who have suffered hair loss due to mechanical or traction alopecia (nonhormonal).
  • Women who have had previous cosmetic or plastic surgery and are concerned about hair loss around the incision sites.
  • Women who have a distinct pattern of baldness, similar to that of male pattern baldness. This includes hairline recession, vertex thinning (on the crown or top of the scalp), and a donor area that is not affected by androgenetic alopecia.
  • Women who suffer hair loss due to trauma, including burn victims, scarring from accidents, and chemical burns.
  • Women with alopecia marginalis, a condition that looks very similar to traction alopecia.
