Technique Cloning Remaining Hair – Baldness Cure For Men And Women

28.07.2008 in HAIR LOSS SCIENCE

Millions of men and women who suffer from premature baldness or hair loss could soon be able to regain their original lustrous locks — by cloning their remaining hair in the laboratory, research suggests.

The new technique, known as “follicular cell implantation,” has already shown positive results in continuing clinical trials on human beings. The work, being carried out by a British team, is being hailed as a major advance in hair restoration and is backed by a $3.7 million government grant.

The cell therapy has the potential to provide a limitless supply of an individual’s hair to replace that lost because of burns, cancer treatment or simply the onset of age, and could be available to patients within five years.

The latest results of the Phase II trial, presented at a conference of leading hair replacement surgeons in Rome, suggest that the technique can increase hair count in at least two-thirds of patients after six months, and four out of five if the scalp is stimulated beforehand through gentle abrasions that encourage hair growth.

We prescribed the following treatments:

Vitastim 15% Hair Regrowth Stimulant and Hair Loss Stabiliser:
This stimulant is recommended to help stabilise hair loss and strengthen existing hair.  It is a natural hop-based solution that works as a vasodilator to increase blood circulation in the scalp and so enable healthy hair growth.  It also contains a multi-vitamin complex to help catalyse the process of conversion of amino acids into keratin hair cells and accelerate growth and diameter of the hair from the dermal papilla.

Follicle Builder 15% Hair Strengthener:
This stimulant is formulated to increase cell metabolism and nutrient concentration at the hair root to increase hair cell production.  It also has the effect of extending the hair growth cycle, improving overall hair density.

Hair Loss in Men – Stop It Today!

17.07.2008 in MALE HAIR LOSS

For many men, losing hair is something will have to be faced as part of the aging process. Common hair loss can be treated with preventative hair loss treatments and products. If this is happening to you, you are not alone, as a simple walk down the street will show you.

About 25 per cent of men begin losing hair before they reach 30 and two thirds before the age of 60.

Sometimes men can begin losing hair in their teens and can reach their early twenties with very little, if any, hair left on the crown of their head. Usually, however, the hair loss is gradual, developing over a period of twenty to thirty years.

TRACTION and TRAUMATIC ALOPECIA

16.07.2008 in ALOPECIA AREATA, Uncategorized

This condition is caused by repeated MANUAL traction, e.g. Trichotillamania,( a psychosomatic condition where the patient pulls ones hair out ), Braiding , Pony tails. Curlers  worn at night. Hot combing to straighten the hair. Constant pulling over long periods of time will eventually cause weakness in the Henley and Huxley layers of the hair, and Atrophy of the follicle (gradual shrinking )

Lack of visibility of the follicle opening and scaring indicates final destruction of the hair follicle.

TRAUMATIC

Chemical:  Bleach, Permanent Dye ( Para ) Relaxer (Thio-glycollic) Perm, Radiotherapy, Freezing, Friction, excessive massage, scratching.

TREATMENT

Take away cause. Recommended trichological treatments – contact the Hair Centre and speak to one of our trichologist for advice on black hair.

CLINICAL FEATURES

Manual: Type of hair style worn gives evidence of marginal loss, temporal / corona e.g. ponytail
Linear loss: Cane row braiding.
Sausage shape: Tight rollers worn at night
Scalp:  Can become erythemas, with swelling around follicles. Can precede Folliculitis.
