Best Hair Loss Treatments and Options for Hair Loss

(PRWEB) February 21, 2005

As the baby-boomers age there is a growing concern for the treatment of hair loss. Many individuals turn to surgical hair restoration. The science of hair transplants has migrated to follicular transplantation, which is basically redistributing individual hair follicles (follicular units) from areas of hair growth to areas of hair loss. The outcome of surgical hair transplantation can be dramatic when performed by skilled medical doctors. The drawback to these types of hair loss treatments is the cost. Often costs can run into five digit numbers.

There are alternative hair loss products available today that may not offer the Â?instantÂ? success of hair transplants but they can offer solutions to many of the root causes of hair loss. There has been much study in 3 main areas of alternative hair loss treatments.

1) DHT inhibitors Â? Male pattern baldness is a genetic condition of hair loss in which hair follicles do not continue to grow as a result of DHT (dihydrotestosterone.) DHT causes the hair to become thinner, and soon the hair has a Â?peach fuzzÂ? look and later falls out. Popular hair loss products such as RevivogenÂ? (http://www.onlyhairloss.com/revivogen/about.htm ) and Hair GenesisÂ? (http://www.onlyhairloss.com/hairgenesis/faq.htm ) aid in blocking DHT from the hair follicle so hair loss does not occur. Neither of these hair loss products can Â?grow hairÂ? but they may be very successful in preventing further hair loss.

2) Copper peptide therapy as a hair loss treatment Â? Many new hair loss products are based on new copper peptide technology. Copper peptides can effectively deliver copper to the hair follicles and help improve the health of the scalp and may limit the loss of hair. The hair loss products TricominÂ? (http://www.onlyhairloss.com/tricomin/about.htm ) and FolligenÂ? are based on copper peptide technology for hair loss.

3) Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) treatment for hair loss Â? Products such as Minoxidil and NanogaineÂ? use superoxide dimutase as a possible solution to preventing hair loss. Simply put superoxide dimutases help move nitric acid to the hair follicle and prevent free radical damage. Nitric acid helps dilate blood vessels, which increase blood flow to the hair follicles. SOD hair loss products offer a solution in the preventing of further hair loss. For more information on superoxide dimutase please go to http://www.onlyhairloss.com/nanogaine/howitworks.htm .

What is the best hair loss treatment for you? In the case of typical Â?male patternÂ?, baldness the best hair loss treatment may be determined by your budget, degree of hair loss, age, and your desire for success. If your hair loss has progressed and you have the money and desire, medical hair restoration surgery may be the right choice. If you are in the beginning phases of hair loss you may want to invest in one of the preventative hair loss treatments mentioned above. Some of the more popular hair loss products available are:
