Quick Facts About Baldness
What is the difference between Patterned baldness and Androgenetic
alopecia?
Androgenetic Alopecia and Patterned Baldness are the same conditions.
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most common type of baldness characterized
by progressive hair loss. It is characterized by stepwise miniaturization
of the hair follicle, resulting from alteration in the hair cycle dynamics,
leading to vellus transformation of terminal hair follicle.
DHT (Dihydro-testosterone or male hormone) converts the thick
terminal hair into thin miniaturised vellus hair
What does it look like?
In men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair is
lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. Over time, the
hairline recedes to form a characteristic "M" shape. Hair also thins
at the crown (near the top of the head), often progressing to partial or
complete baldness.
The pattern of hair loss in women differs from male-pattern baldness. In women, the hair becomes thinner all over the head, and the hairline does not recede. Androgenetic alopecia in women rarely leads to total baldness.
Why does it occur?
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is a multifactorial disorder caused by
interactions between several genes, hormones and environmental factors.
What are the treatment options?
Medical management- Minoxidil, Finasteride
Microneedling
Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy
Hair transplant
Cosmetic camouflage like Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), wigs

How did our life become so busy or is this just our perception?
These days we spend so much time chasing our tails trying to
tick off everything on our to–do list. This way of living can really affect our
emotional well-being, causing stress, depression and anxiety which can take its
toll on our skin's appearance.
You are probably all familiar with the connection of how we feel
on the inside having a direct effect on the way we look on the outside. When
stress is frequent, prolonged or chronic, rapidly growing tissues like hair,
skin and nails are hit the hardest. In fact, these tissues can be a barometer
for how much stress is affecting your body.
Some of the skin problems caused or made worse by stress
are
Eczema
Psoriasis
Acne
Rosacea
Vitiligo
Neurodermatitis
Urticaria
Fever blisters or herpes

Checklist for Stress free Radiant Skin
• Get your beauty sleep of 8 hours daily. Vital repair occurs in
our body when we sleep.
• Make time for yourself- even if it’s just 10 minutes daily-
find a quiet place to STOP whatever you are doing, sit and just relax.
• Move everyday- Find some time each day for physical activity.
A 15 minute walk outside, in the garden workout or yoga session is far more
realistic and beneficial than trying to plan an hour exercise routine that may
never happen.
• Be mindful- We can’t always run away from our situation but we
can change it by simply changing our thoughts and perception of the situation.
This is a great way to diffuse the brains “fight or flight” response.
• Laugh and get those smile lines - Cuz they are worth it!
