There are different ways to stay looking youthful.
All types of people are looking for hair loss treatment.
I know a twenty-something woman with alopecia totalis (a form of hair loss). This disease is more widespread than many realize. People who have it can live normal, happy lives, although they may stand out in a crowd. Since my friend acquired alopecia totalis, lots of people have told her they know someone with the disease.
There are more people than we know who have alopecia totalis, like professional basketball player Charlie Villanueva. Although they don't look the same as other people, if they learn to overcome their self-doubts, they can be rather successful people with having to resort to a hair transplant, which may not have the desired result for someone with alopecia totalis.
She'd describe her situation this way: I'm still in my twenties and I know I haven't experienced the more serious consequences of alopecia totalis. I'm determined to maintain a positive attitude and I believe I will even later on in life. There's a lot more to a man or woman than their hair style. In fact, maybe having alopecia totalis will help us focus more on our character and integrity than superficial appearances. If I had the choice of being bald and fit, or with a full head of hair and obese, I choose the former. I want to be a good steward of my body.
She has a wonderful attitude! Alopecia Universalis (AU) treatment can be complex and sometimes not even possible. If she paid a visit to my office and met some of my patients, she'd be dumbfounded by how saddened they feel at the loss of their hair.
Something I always tell my patients is that it is OK to want to look good physically. I say if it's possible for a person to change their appearance (e.g., laser hair removal, botox) in a way that's socially acceptable (getting a swastika tattoo on one’s face wouldn’t), then do it. But if it's something that can't be altered, you must believe God made you that way for a reason, and what separates us physically is what make us unique.
