Hair loss, especially for men and women can affect how we feel about ourselves. A beautiful head of hair translates to self-confidence, appreciating our appearance and affecting everything from our innate desirability to our social status. And there are quite a few reasons you might have a less than stellar head of hair, including the following:
No matter what the cause, our dermatology specialists, Dr. Kraig K. Jenson, Byron Edwards or Dr. Devin Burr can assess your scalp and hair, and may take a biopsy or blood test for accuracy. Once a diagnostic has been making, our Dermatology Center in Orem, Utah may recommend one of the following solutions:
-Getting a hair transplant: This is where we transplant skin from a healthy section of hair on your scalp onto the area that is sparse.
-Having a scalp reduction: This involves taking away the bald sections of your scalp and closing them with healthy areas of your head or hair.
-Performing a scalp expansion: This surgical procedure involves implanting expanders under your scalp that stretch it for three to four weeks so that hair-growing areas can be taken.
