The Best Hair Regrowth Treatment for Hair Loss
The average person naturally loses between 50 and 100 hairs on a daily basis. But if you have a full head of hair (roughly 100,000 strands), absolutely nobody will notice. Plus, new hair naturally grows on a daily basis to replace any that has been lost.
At least, that’s the way it’s supposed to work.
In reality, any number of factors can cause otherwise healthy hair to fall out or interfere with natural hair regrowth. When this occurs, hair loss becomes visible over time. In some cases, it takes years for bald spots to gradually form. In other cases, people can go bald rather quickly.
The Prevalence of Hair Loss
The many causes of hair loss include medication conditions (which range from thyroid disease to scalp infections), hormonal changes (caused by conditions that range from pregnancy to menopause), and medications (used to treat diseases and disorders that range from cancer to high blood pressure). However, baldness most typically arises as a result of androgenetic alopecia, otherwise known as hereditary hair loss.
According to the latest figures from the American Academy of Dermatology, approximately 80 million men and women in the United States suffer from hereditary hair loss. Although this condition tends to appear in adulthood and worsen with age, it can begin to affect young people at any age.
Roughly 66 percent of men experience some amount of hair loss by age 35, and roughly 85 percent of men have significantly thinner hair by age 50. Although it is more common in men, more than half of women experience some level of balding over the course of their lives.
In light of these statistics, countless people are on the lookout for an effective hair loss cure.
Hair Loss Treatment
Although much has been made of hair growth drugs such as minoxidil and finasteride, their overall effectiveness has strict limitations. In fact, hereditary hair loss and male pattern baldness has strong ties to multiple factors that minoxidil and finasteride simply do not address.
Patients who fail to address scalp microbiome imbalances, scalp inflammation, and poor scalp health in general will have difficulty when it comes to hair loss treatment.
Fortunately, Dr. A. W. Rafi has developed a hair regrowth formula with a specific focus on promoting the scalp conditions needed for optimum hair health. Specifically, it addresses the following basic causes of hair loss.
- The overgrowth of micro-organisms on the scalp
- Overexposure of UV rays to the scalp, resulting in hair follicle and skin damage
- An excess of the hormone dihydrotestosterone (androgen)
- Vasoconstriction of the blood vessels that nourish scalp hair follicles
