First off, great site doc. Very helpful. My question is about hair density and thickness. Say one buzzes their hair, should they expect the density and thickness of the hair to be the same over the whole head or are the backs and sides of the head thicker than the top of the scalp, generally? Thanks, doc! If you’re not balding, the density should be the same all over the head. If you are balding, density will vary with the pattern of genetic balding. Of … [ visit site to read more ]

Density — FUE Versus FUT
One aspect puzzles me. In FUT a strip is removed and closed so a part of the scalp vanishes and is replaced by a thin scar. The areas adjoining the scar retain their hair density and very often with trichophytic closure hair grows out of the scar, again with no reduction in density. In FUE follicular units are harvested individually. No large scar... 
Density and Hair Transplantation
I was reading this ‘Understanding Density’ article [PDF file] and it states that thinner ’see-through’ hair has a density of about 20 cm2. It also says that areas with a pre-op density of 20-25 FU/cm2 could achieve a post-op density of 40-50 FU/cm2. Then, in the  Read More →

I’ve Been Losing Hair for 6 Years — Will Propecia Still Help?
I’ll keep this short and sweet. I’ve been gradually losing hair for 6 years. My temple area is very thin and my crown is somewhat thin. Can I benefit from Propecia since I’ve been losing hair for 5+ years? Thanks! I’ll keep it short and sweet as well. I don’t know the sure answer to your question, because if you don’t... 
Treating Hereditary Hair Loss in Women
Hereditary hair loss in women is more common than most of us seem to think. At first look, it may not be as visible as it is in men due to its different pattern but it is no less challenging to treat than male pattern baldness. The typical female balding pattern is a diffuse hair loss affecting almost the entire scalp, although the thinning is more... 
Graft Survival and High Density Hair Transplant Procedures
This hair loss question was answered by Dr. Glenn Charles of Florida who is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.  His professional answer is below. In the past I have been told that a hair density of 50 grafts per cm2 should not compromise graft survival.  However, I was wondering if transplanting hair at 55  Read More →
Topical Finasteride Gel as Effective as Oral Drug?
A recently published clinical study from Iran shows that topical finasteride in the form of a topical gel is as effective in treating male pattern baldness as oral use of this drug. This double blind, randomized clinical trial was conducted over a period of 6 months on 45 male subjects who had been balding for 1.5 – 2 years. Serial measurements... 
Reader Experience with Latisse on Scalp
I would like to share my experience with latisse. I am 27. I am prone to balding as we have the genes in our family (father, uncle, and grandfather are bald!). However, I have not experienced any balding since I use propecia regularly (only a half a pill every day or every other day) and also use latisse on my scalp every other 2 days. My hair is... 
In the News – Scalp Cooler for Chemo Treatments
Snippet from the article: The machines work by lowering the temperature of the head and scalp by a few degrees before, during and after chemotherapy. This reduction in scalp temperature restricts the amount of blood reaching the hair follicles protecting them from the effects of chemotherapy drugs in the bloodstream, meaning that hair loss is not...
