Baldness is a very common condition that can affect men and women equally at different stages of life.
Sometimes, the receding hairline may not even be noticeable. Other times, hair loss is more than noticeable. Some suffer from premature baldness and are forced to deal with the situation during their teenage years.
In any case, you most likely need information about the causes and treatments available for baldness.
At Master Group, you'll find all the information you need to decide.
Baldness is a medical condition characterized by total or partial hair loss.
Also known as alopecia, some various factors or causes can contribute to its appearance.
Baldness affects thousands of women and men all over the world and those who face it know perfectly well that it is a condition whose effects on self-esteem, confidence, and well-being can be devastating.
Understanding the causes, types, and treatments available to prevent and combat baldness is therefore essential for a more effective treatment.
As with alopecia, there are several types of baldness. However, one of the most common types of baldness, in both men and women, is androgenetic baldness, which falls into the category of non-scarring alopecia.
Male pattern baldness is the most prevalent type of baldness in men.
It is distinguished by the receding hairline at the top of the head, or the thinning of the hair in the crown area (top of the scalp). In either case, hair loss will most likely become partial or total over time.
Female pattern baldness is usually characterized by diffuse thinning of the hair on the upper part of the scalp.
Both male and female pattern baldness can occur due to a wide variety of causes, including genetics, hormonal imbalances, or the natural progression of age.
For example, female pattern baldness is common in women after menopause, although it can also occur during adolescence or puberty.
In all cases, it is always important to make an appointment for an assessment, to confirm the diagnosis and proceed with the most appropriate treatment.
These first consultations are always very important, as the recommended treatments always depend on the causes directly associated with the condition.
Even in cases of early baldness or baldness in adolescence, it is important to know and understand the underlying causes of the situation in order to choose the most effective treatment.
Although genetics itself plays a very significant role for the onset of baldness, the truth is that other factors can contribute to hair loss.
The most common situations include factors such as stress, certain medications, and other medical conditions, as well as the existence of hormonal imbalances, natural or otherwise.
Therefore, some of the causes of baldness are:
Although it can't always be avoided, certain measures can certainly help prevent baldness.
The best preventive measure you can take is to take good care of your health as a whole: maintain a healthy lifestyle through a balanced diet and regular exercise.
Although it may seem simple, this can be a highly preemptive measure that contributes to the health of your hair.
However, you can always take several other precautionary measures to prevent hair loss and maintain healthy hair follicles.
For the most part, these measures require extra attention to the way you care for your hair.
For example, avoid blow-drying your hair too close to the roots and opt for hair products whose chemical composition is as non-aggressive or natural as possible.
At the same time, there are bound to be periods of increased stress throughout your life. That's why you should combine a healthy lifestyle with a healthier balance between your personal and professional life, to keep stress levels to a minimum.
Nonetheless, it won't always be possible to prevent baldness from appearing. When this happens, a diagnostic consultation at specialized clinics such as Master Group is always recommended to find the most effective treatment for your case.
The most suitable baldness treatment for you is the one that is recommended only after the assessment consultation.
The truth is that the treatments used to treat the condition always depend on your specific case, the associated causes, and the degree of baldness that exists.
Once a diagnosis has been confirmed and your specific case has been assessed, there are several options available to you.
These options can be divided into hair transplants or hair treatments, depending on the case.
At Master Group, hair transplants are carried out exclusively using the FUE technique - an innovative technique that is the safest and most effective method for treating baldness that is too advanced to be treated with other options.
However, these options do exist, especially when the degree of baldness is still minimal or can even be reversed (depending on the underlying cause).
At Master Group, you'll find a range of hair treatments including:
