Facts:

-         More than half of men are affected by male pattern baldness by age 50

-         Hair transplantation involves relocating  bald resistant hair follicles areas

      to a person’s bald or thinning  from the back and sides of the head

-         In recent years hair transplantation techniques have evolved from using large plugs and mini grafts to exclusively using large numbers of small grafts that contain from between 1 to 4 hairs

-         Thus modern hair transplantation can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking nature hair for hair. This recent hair transplant procedure is called follicular unit transplantation

-         Scalp massage stimulates blood flow, which in turn helps feed the hair follicles. Nourishment is sent to the capillary vessels in hair papillae to activate the hair cells. It helps to prevent hair loss, and reestablish the natural development of healthy hair.

Prevention:

-         When you use blow dryers, always keep the heat a good distance from your scalp and hair.

-         Avoid putting hair creams, lotions, styling gels and sprays directly on the scalp

-         After swimming in a pool, shampoo your hair as soon as possible to remove any chlorine residue. Chlorine is extremely damaging

-         Avoid over-exposing your hair and scalp to the wind and sun.

-         Avoid tight hats and caps as they contribute to poor circulation, depriving the hair of proper nutrition..

-         Brushing too much or too roughly can strip away your hair’s cuticle
