FEMALE PATTERN BALDNESS

Female pattern baldness is also caused by hormonal and genetic factors. It results in general thinning of the hair, although the front hairline and the occipital region above the nape of the neck are left intact.

At what age does it happen?

It tends to occur from the age of 50, but it can also affect younger women.

How can it be treated?

The only effective and definitive treatment is surgery. Transplanted hair lasts a lifetime.

What aesthetic results can patients expect?

In cases suitable for surgical treatment, transplanted hair can achieve very satisfactory and completely natural thickening of the thinned areas. This may take one or several sessions of treatment.

How long does it take to achieve visible results?

The transplanted hairs have to reach a certain length before the results start to become visible. In average it takes between six to ten months.

What can patients expect from modern surgery carried out by a highly experienced surgeon versed in the technique?

Totally natural and undetectable results with hair that lasts a lifetime. Treatment under local anaesthesia eliminates the risks associated with surgery and reduces pain to a minimum. Patients of all ages can be treated.
