Fortunately, there are natural solutions for hair loss that can help restore restore healthy hair growth and promote a more youthful appearance promote: hair fillers and PRP. In this comprehensive guide, we discuss the causes of hair loss, the various natural solutions and the best strategies for using these solutions for optimal results.
How does hair grow?
To understand both the causes and symptoms of hair loss, it is important to understand how hair grows. That's why we first explain to you all about hair density and hair growth cycles.
Your hair grows about a half an inch a month. That amounts to about six inches per year. A hair has a lifespan of two to six years. Once a hair is worn out, it will stop growing for a certain period of time before it falls out.
What causes hair to grow?
Of course, your hair doesn't grow out of nowhere - there is a whole process behind your hair growth. This is because your hair is made up of a protein: keratin. The hair root is anchored in a hair follicle which is about 3 mm deep in the scalp. The bottom of the hair follicle is deepest in the skin and is thickened. That particle of the hair follicle is called the hair bulb.
In that hair bulb grow living cells that are responsible for building the hair shaft. Attached to the hair bulb are blood vessels that supply nutrients and hormones supply. These are very important for your hair growth and hair structure.
What about hair density?
By hair density, we refer to the number of hairs that you have per square centimeter have. If you have hair loss, you will notice that the number of hairs you have per square centimeter decreases.
How many hair follicles you have per square centimeter depends, among other things, on your hair color. People with thick, dark hair have on average 80 000 hair roots, while people with very thin, light hair often have an average of 140 000 hair roots have.
Although people with thin hair have a lot more hair roots, you won't see it because the hairs are so fine that their hair looks optically as "full appearance as someone with far fewer hair roots but darker hair.
How do hair growth cycles work?
Our hair grows in a cycle, and every hair on your head follows that cycle. However, not every hair goes through that cycle at exactly the same time and rate. Otherwise, we would all be bald at certain times in that cycle.
In total, the hair on our head goes through three stages: the anagen phase or growth phase, the catagen phase or transition phase and the telogen phase or resting phase. In the anagenic phase the hair shaft and root are connected. This phase often lasts for several years.
The anagenic phase is followed by the catagenic phase. This phase lasts several weeks and is characterized by a shrinking hair follicle and delayed hair growth. Finally, the hair enters a telogen phase which lasts for several months. Hair growth will stop completely and the connection between the hair root and hair shaft is broken.
In the telogen phase, new life grows from the hair root. The new hair grows further and further, pushing out the "old" hair. The old hair will eventually fall out and make way for the new hair.
Hair loss symptoms
There are several factors that can stunt your hair growth. Stunted hair growth translates into hair loss: you experience more hair falling out than is normal. How that hair loss manifests itself depends on the cause of the hair loss and on your gender.
Symptoms of hair loss in women
In women, we find that hair loss often manifests itself as thinning. The hair will fall out spread out and not in spots. This form of hair loss is called diffuse hair loss. However, women can also experience bald patches due to hair loss.
Symptoms of hair loss in men
Hair loss in men often manifests as patchy hair loss. Think for example of localized hair loss at the temples or the crown, the receding of the hairline and also complete baldness occurs in men.
Are you tired of the insecurity or shame associated with your hair loss? Do you often try to put your hair loss away? Camouflaging hair loss is a tedious and time-consuming job. Save yourself time and feel good about yourself again: book your appointment at Sarasin Clinic for hair fillers or PRP!
Most common causes of hair loss
What causes hair loss varies widely. Below we give you a list of the most common causes of hair loss.
Although we list possible causes of hair loss here, it is important that you do not self-diagnose. Instead, work with a doctor or specialist to find the specific cause of your problem.
Only when you know the cause of your hair loss can you take effective steps to stop your hair loss. Which treatment you can undergo depends depends depends on the cause of your hair loss.
What we do see is that the results of the hairfiller treatments are applicable to any type of hair loss. Provided that hair follicles are still present, even if the hairs growing from them are translucent and very thin.
Hereditary hair loss or androgenetic alopecia
This is perhaps the most common form of hair loss. With hereditary hair loss, the cause of excessive hair loss is in your DNA. You may have heard of this hereditary form of hair loss under the name androgenetic alopecia.
Although it is said that androgenetic alopecia is primarily a problem in men, this is not necessarily the case. There is also a female form of this condition, about which more below.
Androgenetic alopecia
Hereditary hair loss in women is called androgenic alopecia If there is an increase in androgens. If there is not, we speak of female pattern hair loss. The way hereditary hair loss manifests itself differs between men and women.
Male pattern baldness vs. diffuse hair loss in women
Male baldness that is hereditary will often be noticed first because the hair at the hairline and the temples begins to diminish. Eventually, this type of hair loss can lead to complete baldness lead.
In women, the hair borders will remain in place and the hair will fall out more diffusely, also called patchy hair loss. In women, this causes the hair to become mainly thinner everywhere and will not result in complete baldness.
Alopecia areata
When you are dealing with alopecia areata you will notice that your hair falls out very quickly and you will gradually develop bald patches develop. Those spots tend to have a round or oval shape and occur mostly on the scalp.
Many claim that this is an autoimmune disease, but the exact cause of this condition is so far unknown.
Health Problems
In addition to androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, health problems also play a major role in hair loss. Thus diseases with fever and hormonal changes can lead to hair loss, for example.
Certain medications can also have hair loss as a side effect, think chemo or the birth control pill. Of course, we should also not forget stress as a cause of hair loss.
By the way, did you know that studies are now even being controughed on the link between the coronavirus and excessive hair loss? Many women come to Sarasin Clinic and report that their hair loss started after the vaccinations against the coronavirus. Or after they have been infected with the coronavirus.
Transcending the hair
That heat is not conducive to hair health, we already knew. But that it can also cause hair loss is probably news. It's best to be careful about exposing your hair to heat. Especially with people who often manipulate the natural properties of their hair often manipulate comes hair loss more often.
Not only heat can cause hair loss, but other methods of hairstyling can lead to hair loss. Consider, for example traction alopecia. This is a form of hair loss caused by a continuous tension on the hair due to tight hairstyles, for example.
This occurs, for example, in people who very often wear their hair in a tight dot or tight ponytails. In addition traction alopecia also affects ⅓ of women with African roots. Thus, cornrows and weaves or extensions cause hair loss after prolonged use.
