I do not know how to help you. You clearly had male pattern balding that was not complete and the chemotherapy stressed your fine, miniaturized hairs and finished the balding process in them. One of our patients had used the ‘Cold Cap’ when the took Chemotherapy and lost less than half of the hair. Few […]
Wow !!! That is something !!! You must be the only 20 year old without a camera (even on a phone) !!! On a serious note, you should think about getting a camera. With respect to hair loss you may be experiencing, I am glad you were able to see a doctor and you have […]
This is a review of a SMP procedure performed at New Hair Institute Medical Group. This is a female patient who had traction alopecia from wearing her hair pulled back too tight.

This is a review of a hair transplant result performed at New Hair Institute by Dr. Jae Pak. This is a patient in his 60’s who looked 70’s before he had a hair transplant. His grey hair actually helped with the overall result. Grey hair on fair skin helps disguise the thinning by the low […]

This question covers a lot of territory: 1- If there is generalized thinning over the entire head and you are a male and the thinning is in the side and back of your head as well, you might have a condition called Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA). This condition is not good news, and these patients […]
I often get similar questions asked about finasteride and minoxidil use with DUPA. They do not usually work. Hair transplants might work if the balding area is relatively small (like a Class 3 balding pattern). Using FUE, one can select the good hairs from the donor area and use them in the small recipient area. […]
Some people just want to keep their hair short. Some realize the comb over is not fooling anyone. They think about a hair transplant procedure but they realize they may not end up with a full head of hair with just one surgery (especially when they want to keep their hair short and they are […]
Thank you for writing to us. When you call hair balding pattern a Class 6, I suspect you are talking about thinning, not complete balding. Women almost never develop complete balding. Depending on the degree of thinning, the one approach to a thinning pattern is Scalp Micropigmentation. Generally hair transplants for women are not productive […]

Toppik and Dermmatch will make you hair “feel” thicker. SMP will not. But the overall coverage and cosmetic value will be […]
