Hair Growth
Whether or not we want to admit it, hair loss can affect self-esteem, often at a time in life when appearance is most important. It can cause you to look older than you really are and can even affect people as young as twenty years old.
Fortunately today hair loss is more treatable than ever, especially if caught early. Hair growth is an exact science and should be treated as such. It starts with proper nutrition; hair is produced by living, breathing cells and these cells need energy to do their job!
Follicle damage is the biggest reason for loss or slowed growth of hair, so treating your hair well will help to foster its growth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive sun exposure and do not over-brush or comb your hair. Washing too often can also reduce the rate of hair growth; wash only when you need to remove oil build up from your hair.
Although prevention is better than cure when it comes to hair loss, thanks to science there are now products available that will support regrowth of lost hair. These include testosterone-like drugs which are taken orally, and solutions which are applied topically to the affected regions. A new alternative is laser hair growth, which is giving excellent results both in clinics and at home.
Some products may bring upon side effects so it is very important to speak carefully to your doctor about any possible effects or interactions that will be caused by the medication or treatment you take.
These products offer an excellent alternative to hair transplant techniques as they foster the growth of your own hair rather than relying on expensive strand-by-strand replacement.
