Could hair loss be in your genes? FUE Hair Clinics says yes
 

It’s thought that at any one time in the UK there are as many as 6.5 million men who experience baldness, or more accurately ‘male pattern baldness’, but confusion amongst many still reigns as to what causes the condition, and what can be done to prevent it or reverse it.

Research shows that hair loss is primarily down to one of two things – potentially both, actually – and those are hormones or genetics.

This is a complicated process but one that can be explained rather easily. It all hinges on testosterone hormones. Given time, 5 percent of these hormones will go through a breaking down process, becoming dihydrotestosterone (DHT). As DHT levels rise, hair follicles have a tendency to become smaller. This obviously affects some more than others.

However, for the majority of men who lose their hair, the cause is usually a genetic one. Scientific studies have found that men with a history of hair loss in their family, whether on the mother or father’s side, will have a tendency to lose their hair. Lifestyle habits to a lesser extent can also play a role.

But while some men don’t mind going the bald route, other people can be seriously affected by the process, becoming anxious and losing their self-esteem. But while hair loss has been around a long time, effective and safe treatments have not, as FUE Hair Clinics, a provider of hair transplants, pointed out.

“Baldness was once a life sentence of sorts. Sure, you could lead a healthy lifestyle and try to take preventative measures to slow down any loss, but ultimately you were prisoner to your genetics and hormones. Today that’s absolutely not the case,” explained a representative for the popular hair loss clinics. “So even if your balding is entirely the result of genetics, there are now viable and effective options out there.”

A great way to tackle your balding, one used by many high profile celebrities in recent years, is to have a hair transplant.

“The science and technology behind transplants have improved dramatically in the last few decades, particularly in the last several years, making it an affordable, effective option that will transform your head and literally take years off your face, giving you back the confidence you once hand.”

FUE Hair Clinics has practices throughout the UK and provides a number of options, including follicular unit and strip extraction, unit implantation and scalp micro pigmentation.
