What is Female Pattern Baldness?
Often, hair thinning in women is due to genetics. This type of hair loss is known as female-pattern hair loss, also known as androgenic alopecia. A hair transplant is a proven method for treating female-pattern baldness.
A normal female hair loss pattern consists of thinning in the vertex (crown) and center of the scalp (hair part). As the female pattern baldness progresses hair density reduces and the center of the scalp (hair part) widens leaving “peach fuzz” or a fully bald section. Unlike male pattern baldness a recession of the frontal hairline doesn’t normally occur unless the individual is suffering from Traction Alopecia.
