Hair loss is a widespread concern for the majority of men. By age 35, approximately 65% of American men will notice some degree of hair thinning, and by age 50, nearly 85% of all men suffer from significant hair loss. Although balding can begin as early as puberty and be caused by a variety of health and environmental factors, Androgenic Alopecia (male pattern baldness) is the most common cause. This means that your hair follicles are genetically predisposed to be sensitive to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), and as levels of DHT increase with age, your hair increasingly thins, deteriorates, and eventually, falls out. Hair at the sides and back of the head are typically resistant to DHT. This makes those specific follicles ideal for hair transplant because they are genetically predisposed not to fall out. Artas Hair Transplant’s ground-breaking digital imaging and precision robotics selects only the healthiest hair follicles that haven’t been diminished by DHT for transplantation, ensuring that the transplanted follicles take root and grow in their new location. This method also ensures that the hair at the back of the head remains thick and unscarred because the surrounding hair follicles remain untouched.
