It is hard to answer your question, because I do not know what you are seeing. If you get your hair mapped out for miniaturization we might know what it is that you are seeing. Is this the early stages of thinning genetic hair loss? Without quantifying the miniaturization, I can not help you. Generally, […]

I am assuming that you are a male. What is your age? I can not do you justice to work in the dark. I will therefore answer your question as if you are a young man, under 25 years old. Propecia was only studied for its impact in the crown, so the drug company can […]
There is no cure for androgenic (male pattern) hair loss. Drugs such as Propecia slow it down and at best sometimes grows some hair. Just because you notice more hair falling out does not necessarily mean Propecia has stopped working. Instead it is not able to keep up with your ultimate fate. Adding Rogaine may […]
Balding impacts almost 50% of men in their lifetimes. Even when there is no obvious family history, the genetics can skip generations. He should be treated like any young balding man. Get his hair mapped out for miniaturization to find out if he has the genetic pattern balding process going on. A diagnosis is critical. […]
I am both pleased and frustrated by your question. What I say and what I try to teach in this blog should be basic to every good doctor who claims expertise in any field. If you think about it, when someone has a progressive medical problem (cancer, morbid obesity, kidney or liver disease, or hair […]
Yes, the mature hairline can be filled in with transplants. I generally restrict those types of surgeries in people your age, because we really do not know what the balding pattern will be. You do not want a youthful hairline (reversing the mature hairline with transplants) and then be bald behind it. Your hairline would […]
You can check on the ISHRS site for doctors in the UK using their physician search. If you want to come to California (air fares are very inexpensive now) please let’s establish the diagnosis over the phone (send photos here to start). With that, I can make certain assumptions about you. Six months of Propecia […]
When your hair thins, there is a greater tendency to get drying (best treated with a shampoo and conditioner for dry hair) and more sun exposure, which produces skin damage from UV light. Many people like Nioxin shampoo, and it’s worth a try. The company suggests that this shampoo has DHT blocking activities, but I […]
When there is hair loss or hair thinning, there is both a greater chance of skin drying and more sun damage. Both can cause itching. I recommend that you get your hair mapped out for miniaturization, learn what it happening to you, get a good doctor who can develop a Master Plan for your hair […]
The decision for the use of Propecia must be a lifetime decision, so it’s better to find out what the diagnosis is and to form a Master plan for your hair loss before you embark on that path. With regard to miniaturization and hair loss, some people miniaturize progressively as they bald. These are the […]
You need to have a diagnosis, so get your hair mapped out for miniaturization to determine if that is what is happening to you. Why play guessing games? You need a Master Plan for your long term management and a good doctor to do it for you. I just can’t stress these things enough. My […]
Regrowth of hair in the presence of active alopecia areata is likely not possible. I would need to evaluate him to understand the complex process and findings you are telling us about. Am I correct to assume that the lasers produced skin damage? Was it skin discoloration or is it real scarring? Is your son […]
You need a Master Plan for your hair loss. First I would need to know your age. Then I would want to know to what degree other men in your family have lost their hair. Next, I would want to determine your available donor hair supply so that I understand what you can depend upon […]
There are many patients who have slight thinning of the frontal hair line. Hair transplantation to the thinning frontal line works well, but a correct diagnosis has to be made and the surgeon and the patient would be wise to make a “Master Plan” for future hair loss. At 27 years old, I would suggest […]
Sounds like your uncle is the problem, not your genetics. You could, of course, wind up with your uncle’s hair loss, but then again, you could end up with your father’s full head of hair with the cowlicks. If you are really worried, get your hair mapped out for miniaturization yearly. Any signs of balding […]
