Clients may wait far too long before seeking help with their hair loss situation. By the time the decision is made a number of treatments will only be able to produce a small difference and then just hold the problem. Acting in a dynamic way to prevent hair loss from the start can help minimize the problems later on.
Hair loss is mainly caused by genetics with genes being passed down the lineage from parents and grand parents. The gene pattern inherited is changed into biochemical products in the scalp. These changes make it less favorable for hair follicles to continue acting normally. The net result is a slow loss of hair as hair follicles wither away and become so little that they can no longer produce good hair.
The idea towards early hair loss treatments is that interventions are used to stop the chemical changes happening in the scalp. This will then prevent additional withering of hair follicles and also reawaken those ones that have not quite reached a lasting terminal decline. There are number of treatments that use this method of dealing with hair loss. The ways used are to either stop scalp cells producing a substance called DHT or to increase the blood flow to hair follicles. There are some treatments that claim to do both. As a result it is sometimes a good idea to use more than one treatment at the same time.
DHT is the reduced name for a chemical called Dihydrotestosterone. This is manufactured when male hormones called androgens respond with receptors in the hair follicle cells. The hair follicles are very sensitive to DHT and therefore it causes them to die away. Stopping DHT formation is consequently a good scheme in preventing hair follicles withering away and therefore maintaining hair production.
Increasing the blood supply to the hair follicles makes sure that they have a better supply of oxygen and food. This therefore stimulates their health. There is also the possibility that the better blood flow takes away some of the DHT before it builds up to high levels in the hair follicles. These are some of the methods that can be used in early action to prevent hair loss.
Laser Luce LDS 100 is a laser hair restoration method used in hair clinics. It involves sitting under a dome shaped hood for about 30 minutes each time. The laser light which is in the infra red frequency area causes increased metabolic activity in scalp cells and improves the blood capillary network supplying the hair follicles with oxygen and food. Tests have shown that patients having this treatment over a 12 month term both get new hair and maintain the degree of hair thickness and manufacture after this time.
Propecia is DHT blocking treatment. You have to take tablets on a daily basis. Excellent results have been obtained in both the maintaining of hair count and thickness as well as the capability to regrow hair. After only 3 months the person should see that the treatment has started to take effect.
Revivogen is a composite of natural herbs. Its main ingredients are substances which block the production of DHT. It has to be rubbed into the scalp. Other natural substances contained in Revivogen promote hair regrowth. Good reports have been made on the ability of this treatment to regrow hair.
The laser comb is a smaller version of the larger hood apparatus used in clinics. You can use this device at home. There is an initial quite high cost for the apparatus but you can get many years of use after this. This treatment acts by stimulating the hair follicles to regrow hair and by increasing the scalp blood supply. A lot of people have gained thicker hair after using it for a six month period.
All you have to do now is to select the method you want to use. You can then keep as much of your hair as possible and also regain some of the lost hair. Commencing your treatment early will lessen the chance of having to deal with bigger balding areas later on.
