For men, nothing is horrific than losing their hairline. Every individual is very self-conscious about losing their hair and may lead to emotional issues. Nowadays, we all lose some hair every day and losing around 60- 100 strands a day is normal. But, going beyond it may be a sign of hair loss.
What is Male Hair Transplant?
A male hair transplant is a cosmetic procedure that moves the hair from the healthy part of the body to the thinning or bald parts. The transplanted hair will act in a similar way to the hair from where it was taken. The male hair transplant is an ideal solution that is incredibly efficacious.
Under male pattern baldness, the hairline recedes and the exposure of bald area increases. It happens due to genetic factors and hormones which is the modified form of testosterone dihydrotestosterone. It is attached to the hair follicles on the scalp and causes them to shrink in size whereas the hair becomes shorter in length and light in colour.
Sometimes men also experience a thinning of hair at the top of the head. The hair transplant can also be executed if there is any injury or disease of the scalp.
