Movember and Hair Restoration
By Dr. Morgenstern
Happy Movember!
No, that’s not a typo. Movember is an annual event during the month of November involving the growing of mustaches to raise awareness for men’s health issues. One health issue men don’t talk a lot about (but is especially important in a month dedicated to growing mustaches) is hair loss. There are several options for men experiencing hair loss.
- Hair restoration procedures are actually hair redistribution. Hair is taken from the back and sides of the scalp and transferred to the areas where hair has thinned. Natural looking results are obtained by transferring the hairs as very small “micro” or “mini” grafts. Men with hair loss see noticeable improvements in the thickness, distribution, and growth of their hair.
- Another option is a NeoGraft®. NeoGraft® is a minimally invasive hair restoration system that uses an automated process to harvest and place hair follicles, making the process less painful and reducing recovery time.
- Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy is an exciting non-surgical therapeutic option for patients who require stimulation of hair growth for hair loss conditions. PRP is injected into the scalp causing hair follicles to become healthier and larger, producing more robust hair growth.
If you are suffering from hair loss, let Movember motivate you to learn more about hair restoration. Dr. Morgenstern has decades of experience helping men deal with hair loss. He is also sponsoring the Movember event for Radio 104.5.
