Table of Content

These issues can be seen in elderly people as well as in young adults. The popular solution might be to purchase hair serum or medication to apply or take right? But somehow these products don’t always work, furthermore, some people lose even more hair or grow more hair in the unwanted area but the bald area is still bald. Have you ever wondered why?

Causes of Hair Loss Issues

That is because the method does not target the root of the problem. First, we have to understand the cause of hair loss. 90% of hair loss is caused by genetics and hormones. The way to treat this problem can start by getting professional advice from the doctor for a suitable treatment.

hair serum

The drug that is normally prescribed by the doctor targets DHT hormone. The medicine will stop hair loss and make thin hair thicker. Unfortunately, this will not generate new hair if there are no hair follicles in that area.

Limitations of Hair Serums & Medications

Now you know that serums and medicine will not work if there are no hair follicles in the bald area as it only nurtures existing hair follicle to produce more quality hair. The only way to get hair follicle in the bald area is to have hair transplantation. FUE is a technique that has been accepted worldwide.
