Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female hair loss is usually referred to as "wide part." Hair recedes from a central region, moving outward. Hairline recession usually occurs less in women than men.
Typically, women are unaware if their hair thinning is permanent or temporary. Extreme events responsible for possible thinning include illness, hormonal issues, severe stress, or pregnancy in women.
Genetic hair loss occurs when hair growth halts or hair shedding exceeds 125 hairs per day. Baldness is inherited from either side of the family. To properly diagnose genetic hair loss, a patient should have a blood workup by a board-certified dermatologist.
Women usually lose hair through Pattern 4 or Pattern 2. Initially, Pattern 4 was classified as Ludwig`s pattern hair loss. Early hair loss can often be treated with medical therapy and injectable treatments like exosomes and PRP. Females experiencing more extensive pattern hair loss are treatable with hair transplants, usually requiring multiple sessions (approx 2-3). Women display a positive response to transplants, demonstrating a candidness to the procedure despite being ignored by many clinics. Post-face-lift women usually require a hair transplant. Another innovative technique allows for eyebrow and eyelash transplantation.
