Male Pattern Hair Loss
Male Pattern Hair Loss (MPHL), also known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is the most common form of hair loss in men. It is primarily driven by genetics and the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which causes hair follicles to shrink and weaken over time. MPHL typically presents as receding hairline, thinning at the crown, or overall hair thinning, and can begin as early as the late teens or twenties. Early intervention helps slow progression, preserve existing hair, and stimulate regrowth using a combination of medical and advanced hair therapies.
Causes & Risk Factors
- Genetics: Family history plays a major role in susceptibility
- Hormonal Influence: DHT shrinks hair follicles leading to progressive thinning
- Lifestyle & Health: Stress, poor nutrition, and certain illnesses may accelerate hair loss
Treatment Options
- Medical Therapy: FDA-approved medications like finasteride and minoxidil to slow hair loss and promote regrowth
- PRP & Scalp Therapies: Platelet-rich plasma and growth factor treatments stimulate follicles and improve hair density
- Hair Transplantation: Surgical restoration for advanced hair loss or receding hairline
Benefits & Expected Results
- Slows Hair Loss Progression: Early treatment preserves hair and prevents further thinning
- Improves Hair Density & Strength: Non-surgical therapies stimulate follicle health
- Natural & Long-Lasting Outcomes: Combined treatments provide gradual, natural-looking hair restoration
