BSCKII – Quach Thi Ha Giang – National Hospital of Dermatology said that male hormone hair loss is the most common type of hair loss in men. The forehead, top, and temples are common hair loss sites. In these areas, the hair becomes thin, reducing the diameter of the hair, and reducing the density of the hair. Many men are not too concerned about their problems, peacefully living with thinning hair that progresses naturally, but many people are very worried, guilty, low self-esteem, significantly affecting their quality of life. . Many men complain that baldness causes psychological guilt. Dr. Giang said that currently the treatment of male pattern baldness needs to determine the cause and there are many single or combination therapies that have been performed for patients with positive effects. However, dermatologists need to advise patients to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each therapy so that patients can adhere to and maintain treatment. Currently, hair transplant to treat baldness is of great interest to many people, according to Dr. Giang, this technique was first performed in 1930 in Japan for the hair loss area in the eyebrows. This is a measure that can clearly and long-term improve male pattern baldness. Hair transplant is a technique to permanently transfer hair follicles from the occipital area of ​​the scalp to the bald area at the top and forehead. With modern techniques, the survival rate of transplanted hair follicles can reach over 90%. The prerequisites for this procedure are stable hair loss and a sufficient amount of hair in the occipital region for implantation (> 40 hair follicles/cm2). According to Dr. Giang, there are two basic autologous hair transplant techniques: FUT (follicle unit transplantation) and FUE (follicle unit extraction). Each technique has different pros and cons. First, FUT hair transplant technique – take a scalp flap from 8-12mm wide, 20-30cm long in the occipital area or horizontally behind the ear, then separate each hair follicle to transplant into the bald area. The flap of skin that has just been cut will be sutured, there is a risk of scarring. Monday, FUE hair transplant technique – precisely remove individual hair follicles from the scalp, then graft to the bald area. This method has the advantage of less scarring, less pain, less swelling, but it takes a long time to perform the technique. After the hair transplant, Dr. Giang said, the hair follicles will enter a phase of cessation of growth, so it takes at least 3 months to see cosmetic improvements in those who are transplanted. Local hair follicles can still continue to progress naturally, so it is necessary to continue to maintain systemic and topical treatments such as minoxidil, finasteride for the best effect. In addition, men can be treated with other methods such as pills, low-dose laser…
