3 Reasons Why Men Consider Hair Restoration
In today’s climate of social media and online dating apps, it can be easy for men to define themselves by the amount of hair they have. Sometimes hair loss happens so gradually that men don’t even notice it, while other men experience dramatic changes in the short span of a few years. This can be discouraging to men of all ages. Thankfully, with advanced techniques and advanced systems like ARTAS iX™, hair restoration is not only possible but highly effective and incision-free.
Here are three reasons men are considering hair restoration more than ever before.
Premature Hair Loss
It is thought that one of the main reasons men begin to lose their hair in their early 20s is the higher levels of an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase in the upper scalp that produces higher levels of DHT in the scalp tissue. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a sex hormone more frequently found in males than women. At high levels, DHT can shrink the follicles to the point where they can no longer respond to hair growth cycles.
Some of the other reasons younger men experience hair loss include:
Overuse of styling products, dyes, gels, and other harmful chemicals
Nutrient-deficient diets low in protein or iron
Stress-related hair loss (telogen effluvium)
Autoimmune disorders.
2. Desire to Look as Young as They Feel
Men in their 30s and beyond want hair restoration not just to look their best but to feel their best. Hair restoration surgeries have been shown to improve happiness and self-confidence, leading to overall enhanced quality of life. Middle-aged men who get hair transplants often report feeling more youthful and energetic, which may also lead to more engaging social lives and more fulfilling relationships with sexual partners.
3. Advanced Treatment Technology ( ARTAS iX™)
Surgeons have offered hair transplants for decades, and many men are afraid hair transplants will leave their head scarred from scalpels, stitches, or staples.
Luckily, ARTAS iX™ uses advanced technology to provide the minimally invasive hair restoration of the future. ARTAS iX™ is assisted by 3D image-guided robotics and artificial intelligence. The ARTAS iX™ system can transfer hair follicles from the donor area to the recipient area without any incisions. Unlike less-effective hair loss treatments, ARTAS iX™ maintains permanent hair growth for a natural and balanced appearance.
