Cure your baldness today!

When choosing hair restoration for baldness it is important to consider all of the available options open to you and consider the best course of action that is personally suited to your needs. But what are the options? And how do you know which one is the best for you?

When people think of hair restoration they often think of hair transplants and hair replacement wigs. But medications like Rogaine and Propecia have proven very very popular hair restoration options for baldness that can be part of any short or long-term treatment plan.

Rogaine (Minoxidil) was happily enjoying its solid, if not spectacular, reputation as a blood pressure medication when somebody found out that it also could restore hair. Baldness it seemed was cured. Well…not quite. Rogaine is effective with nearly 60% of patients in stemming hair loss and in some cases actually beginning new hair regrowth. Like any medication Rogaine is best utilized when used early as hair restoration for baldness and its effects stop once the medication is discontinued.

Propecia, like Rogaine, was designed to do something else, namely alleviate the effects of an enlarged prostate. But unlike Rogaine it didn’t just simply promote new growth in hair follicles but actually attacked the cause of baldness, which is the conversion of testosterone into DHT (dihydrotestosterone), a hormone that causes hair follicles to shrink and become damaged. Like Rogaine results can be effective for majority of patients but does not work for everybody.

Perhaps the most effective hair restoration for baldness is the hair transplant. Though more expensive, in the short term, hair transplantation has a very high rate of patient satisfaction and usually leaves the patient with a natural and functional scalp alternative to baldness that requires no further action on the part of the patient.
