 For women, the losing of hair is often very distressing. Most cases of hair loss in women are due to inherited female pattern balding, but medical conditions can also be involved, such as low thyroid levels, hormonal imbalances such as elevated testosterone, binge dieting, and pregnancy. Another cause of hair loss in women is the distortion of hair growth and scarring as a result of prior facial plastic surgery. Most of these conditions are treatable, giving women some options where, just 5 years ago, hair transplantation would not have been an option. Even today, most doctors performing hair transplantation do not offer this procedure to women, because of the additional challenges and required experience. Our surgeons regularly perform procedures on women, and have authored scientific articles on the topic. As with men, the procedure of choice in women is usually follicular unit grafting, but with certain modifications. The specifics of your procedure will be discussed with a doctor from the Foundation.
