Health - Common Hair Loss Treatments
Common Types of Hair Loss Treatments
Hair loss affects millions of men. Not only does it make men
look older beyond their years, it also has a negative effect on
self esteem and social confidence. There are three types of hair
loss treatments not including hairpieces, weaves and surgical
methods.
The most widely used treatments are natural based and
cosmetically based lotions, shampoos and herbal supplements.
Many users swear by these products that claim to be effective
for regrowing hair. Most of these products clean the scalp which
allow the hair follicle to breathe and deliver important
nutrients to the hair and follicle. Others decrease the hormones
in the body that have shown in studies to decrease hair growth.
The second types of products are medical topical solutions. One
of the commonly known over the counter topical solution is
Rogaine, which contains Minoxodil. Minoxodil has been medically
proven to grow hair. Other products are special concoctions such
as Minoxodil with Retin A. Retin A allows the hair follicle in
the scalp to absorb more of the Minoxodil. These special topical
concoctions usually require a prescription from a doctor.
The third type is an oral treatment called Propecia. Propecia
lowers chemicals levels in the body that decrease the growth of
hair. Propecia has been shown effective in regrowing hair in
many studies. However, Propecia does require a prescription. So
if you started losing your hair learn more about the various
treatments available and you will be looking better in no time.
