Finasteride is an ingestible hair loss treatment that works as a DHT inhibitor, and studies show that 9 out of 10 males taking Finasteride experienced visible results. Finasteride is the main ingredient in Propecia.Because known as one cause of birth defects, Finasteride is deemed not for ingestion by women.

If no other option is available, the transfer of active hair follicles from other parts of the body to the scalp, called hair transplant, may be resorted to. These transplanted follicles will continue to produce hair for the rest of their lifetime due to a genetic resistance to balding.The techniques of hair transplantation have undergone significant improvements in the previous years.A more natural-looking method of transplanting tiny plugs with only 1-4 hairs is today’s common technique.
