Sometimes, males and females start to experience hair loss at a very young age. At that point, they are not ready to accept the fact that they are experience such balding. The victim has hope for a hair loss reversal and miraculous re-growth of their hair; but obviously, that cannot happen. At that point, younger people start to seek for a hair transplant . Some that have done extensive research may even opt for body hair transplantation.
There are five common causes for hair loss in younger people. The first common cause of hair loss is tinea capitis—a condition cause by a fungus that invades the hair shaft and causes the hair to break. This is most commonly found in children especially those of school going age. The next is alopecia areata which is the sudden appearance of one or more totally bald areas in the scalp (patchy hair loss). Traction alopecia, or physical damage to the hair, is another common cause of hair loss. More common in girls, the hair does not respond well to many physical and chemical reactions it has to endure. It is commonly a result of hair grooming practices especially in women of color. Practices like hair braiding, the use of extensions and the use of hot combs as well as tight pony tails. The fourth common cause of hair loss is trichotillomania—the compulsion to pull out one’s own hair. The last common form of hair loss is called telogen effluvium, which is when a illness or stress-related event causes the hair to shed. If these conditions are not the cause of the hair loss, often times if such balding is a prevalent issue in the family, then losing hair will be inevitable.
Before pursuing a hair transplant, the young adult, who is losing hair, should consult a doctor. However, as with any condition, the sooner hair restoration treatment is initiated, the better. Patients, who have hair loss early in life, should be prepared for further hair loss in the future. Therefore, having a hair transplant at the current moment may not be beneficial because chances are, balding will continue in the future. So before going through with a hair transplant, the young patient should understand that another hair restoration will most likely be necessary in the future. Younger aged patients should first consider using medical treatments such as minoxidil and finasteride for this reason before opting for a hair transplant . If you do have questions and/or concerns about your hair loss, and are considering a hair transplant such asbody hair transplantation, come see Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic in Los Angeles. He’ll be more than happy to be of assistance.

A 54-year-old physician, who like many other young adults suffering from hair loss, began to experience crown and frontal hair loss in his early twenties. During that time, he perused a generic 2-scalp reduction and hair transplant to the frontal area from the well-known Los Angeles ‘mill,’ without any regard for potential future balding. Due to that unsuccessful hair restoration, his baldness progressed shortly after and what resulted were frontal grafts that were too “pluggy”, an unnatural frontal hairline, hair placed in the wrong direction, scarring in the recipient area, donor scarring, and a depleted donor supply.
After experiencing such unfortunate consequences, he had another hair restoration from a well-established Los Angeles surgeon. The hair transplant should have never been done since he had very little donor hair supply and compromised donor circulation. The patient also had necrosis—death of the tissue—at the distal ends of both flaps; all a result of his first hair transplant.
Finally, this past year, the patient started looking into possibly having a body hair transplant, specifically one that uses the most advanced follicular unit extraction methods. He was hesitant at first due to having such a horrible hair restoration in the past. After undergoing a body hair transplant, the patient could not have been any more happier. As seen in the video, there was absolutely no shedding. There was also immediate100% growth in the frontal and mid-scalp areas as well as current growth now occurring in the crown. The patient described his hair transplant, using such an advanced follicular unit extraction procedure, as a complete transformation.
Like it has done for the physician, a body hair transplant offers great hope for people suffering from such hair loss, especially one that uses techniques from a follicular unit extraction procedure. Sometimes a previous hair transplant leaves patients with unpleasant results. A body hair transplant can be a solution to those problems. Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic is one of the few doctors who can perform such a hair restoration. Come by for a free consultation and he will be sure to assess the best possible treatment for you.

After undergoing his own poor hair transplant, Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic created a new hair restoration procedure, known as the Body Hair Transplantation, for those suffering from hair loss. A more advanced version of Follicular Unit Extraction, Body Hair Transplantation is becoming more popular. With rapid healing rates and better overall yield and growth of transplanted hair follicles on the scalp, the new hair transplant procedure removes single individual strands of hair to the area of need. Minimally invasive and requiring no scalpels, strip surgery, or stitches, there is very little downtime and absolutely no scar. Unlike Follicular Unit Extraction, the newly transplanted hair follicles grow in a natural pattern starting from the first hair restoration treatment and patients are able to return to their normal lives immediately.
Body Hair Transplantation is extremely versatile, differing from a more traditional hair transplant. As implied by its name, Body Hair Transplantation can safely remove hair from anywhere on the body-head, face, legs, arms, etc-and transfer it to the area in need. In other words, unlike Follicular Unit Extraction, the hair transplant can use only head hair, only body hair, or both head and body hair, depending on the patient. With that, Body Hair Transplantation is able to add the entire body-hair supply to the donor resource, which allows even those who are severely bald or suffering from hair loss, to aim for fuller and better hair restoration.
For those suffering from hair loss, Body Hair Transplantation is the best solution. Being extremely versatile, the advanced version of Follicular Unit Extraction fits everyone’s own needs. If you have any questions about this new hair transplant, come see Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic and he will be sure to answer all of your questions.

Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic has created a new hair transplant procedure, known as Body Hair Transplantation, to help those suffering from hair loss. As the latest hair restoration treatment, Body Hair Transplantation is a minimally invasive procedure that results in rapid healing rates and better overall yield and growth of transplanted hair follicles on the scalp. During the procedure, hairs are removed from the back and sides of the head one at a time, leaving very tiny punch wounds. The tiny punch wounds leave no significant signs of scarring within a few days of hair transplant.
So why exactly is Body Hair Transplantation the best hair restoration procedure out there? Well, Body Hair Transplantation requires no scalpels, strip surgery, and no stitches. Unlike a more traditional hair transplant that requires cutting a slice of flesh from the back and side of the head, Body Hair Transplantation is linear scar-free. And best of all, because the procedure allows for the use of body hair, the number of transplantable hair is greatly increased. The newly transplanted hair follicles then grow in a natural pattern from the first hair restoration treatment. In addition, Body Hair Transplantation adds the entire body-hair supply to the donor resource, allowing even those who are severely bald or suffering from hair loss to aim for fuller and better hair restoration in ways that are not possible with a more traditional hair transplant. Patients who have undergone the Body Hair Transplantation procedure have been able to return to their daily lives immediately; many of which do not need to cover their head with a hat or suffer from hair loss ever again.

The hair transplant is so minimally invasive that the surgery leaves only tiny wounds, which typically heal within days.
DermHair Clinic offers many more services other than Single Follicle Extraction and Transfer. With his breakthrough procedure, Dr. Umar is also able to transplant hair from various parts of the body to the balding areas of the head. Similar to Follicle Unit Extraction, the Body Hair Transplantation extracts hair follicles one at a time. All body hair can be utilized for hair transplants including the back of the chest, stomach area, back, legs, arms, armpits, and pubic areas.
If Body Hair Transplantation is not the right match for a patient, Dr. Umar can also do Single Follicle Extraction and Transfer using only head hair—the head and nape. The follicular unit is the most superior because its graft offers a more natural appearance and recreation for normal hair restoration.
A few other services that Dr. Umar offers at DermHair Clinic include eyebrow transplantation, Latisse eyelash treatment, and even other hair restoration procedures for balding areas like the legs, pubic area, beards, chest etc. Like other typical hair transplants, the eyebrow transplantation helps patients who have lost their eyebrows regain growth and hair restoration using body hair and nape hair from the patient with the Body Hair Transplantation method. Latisse eyelash treatment helps those who want to experience fuller, thick, and darker upper eyelashes. And lastly, Dr. Umar is known for curing those with special cases including those who need hair transplants on other parts of their body.

As the benefits for Follicle Unit Extraction is increasing, more and more people are beginning to resort to the Body Hair Transplantation to cure their hair loss. As patients research, they find that Body Hair Transplantation is linear scar-free and scalpel-free. Apart from graft placement, no technicians should be performing the fue hair transplant except for the dermatologist; there are not stitches after the hair restoration; and there is no use of mass production graft-damaging machines. In addition, your body and head hairs are used to treat the needed hair loss area and patients have the freedom to style their hair anyway they want.
So it is no surprise why Follicle Unit Extraction is becoming the most popular hair transplant for those suffering from hair loss. But patients must be careful-in an effort to make Follicle Unit Extraction a production-line procedure, some clinics allow non-licensed personnel to perform FUE graft extractions. In some parts of the United States, it is actually illegal for non-licensed personnel to perform the Body Hair Transplantation on their own. Another thing that patients must look out for is if the clinic is using a mass production machine to virtually vacuum out the graft-literally air-drying the grafts to death in the hair restoration process. These vacuumed grafts are transported at high speeds through tubes, leading to a receptacle. The process is harmful to the integrity of the grafts and risking viability in the hair transplant process.
Although you may be suffering from hair loss, do your research before settling for a surgeon to perform your fue hair restoration. At DermHair Clinic, Dr. Umar subscribes to the philosophy that all Follicular Unit Extraction is a surgical procedure and a licensed personnel performs the Body Hair Transplantation. If you are a prospective hair restoration patient researching a Follicular Unit Extraction-type procedure, ask your clinic about the qualifications and licensure of the personnel extracting your grafts as well as the type of machine they are using to treat your hair loss. Be proactive. More importantly, you can come see Dr. Umar at DermHair and he will assure you that you are receiving the best possible hair transplant treatment.

When men begin to suffer from hair loss, one product they use is Propecia. Propecia is a finasteride that is used for the treatment of male pattern hair loss, also known as androgenic alopecia. Male pattern hair loss or baldness is a common condition for men whose hair start to thin on their scalp. Oftentimes, male pattern hair loss can lead to a receding hairline or balding on the top of the head.
For those who choose not to have hair transplants such as Dr. Umar’s Body Hair Transplant yet, Propecia is applied on the vortex and the anterior mid-scalp area. Working as a hair restoration product, it stops hair loss by preventing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body. Baldness typically results from dihydrotestosterone interacting with the hair follicles that are genetically vulnerable to the effects. DHT binds with the receptor sites of the vulnerable follicles and disrupts the follicles’ ability to produce healthy hair gradually, which results in baldness in the affected areas. Therefore, DHT is essentially the active ingredient or catalyst for the hair loss process. As an alternative for hair transplants, Propecia works by inhibiting the conversion of testosterone into DHT and so, by reducing the amount of DHT present n the scalp. The thinning process is then slowed and sometimes even reversed.
Propecia does slow down the hair loss process and stimulates new hair growth for those with early to moderate degrees of hair loss and baldness. For most men, Propecia actually does its job in hair restoration by increasing the number of scalp hairs by filling in the thin or balding areas of the scalp. But sometimes Propecia is not enough-some men have to resort to hair transplants such as the Body Hair Transplant.
Dr. Umar at DermHair Clinic has a number of patients, who after a few years of using Propecia, end up getting hair transplants to restore their hair. In particular, the Body Hair Transplant procedure that Dr. Umar has created is the most effective. Being minimally invasive and scar-free, the new form of hair restoration is becoming more and more popular amongst men suffering from hair loss and baldness. Come by and Dr. Umar will assess what is the best possible treatment for you.
