Dealing With Receding Hairline 

Hair are an important part of our physical outlook. Thick, luscious mane is idealized for everyone across the globe, and naturally, they are coveted by everyone. However, our hair is under influence from various factors. Therefore, they always may not look like we envision for ourselves.

Hair issues are multifaceted

Understanding hair care is not an easy thing. It has its own dedicated set of science that anyone who longs for perfect their needs to follow. Texture, color, volume, thinning are amongst some of the hair related issues.

And while some of these are easier to resolve, problems with hair growth are much more difficult to tackle and require expert intervention from the top dermatologist in Lahore to salvage their hair.

What is receding hair line?

Occurring mostly in men, but plaguing women, nonetheless, is the problem of receding hairline. In this condition, men usually face the hair loss starting from their temples, spreading gradually all the way to their crown. In women, it is known as widow’s peak. The receding hairline leads to the formation of a v-like shape in the middle of the head.

Know what causes hair fall

In order to find the solution, it is very important to address the problem to begin with. There are many factors that lead to hair fall, and these are contingent on age, gender, environment, diet etc.

Hormones

Hormonal issues are more common again in men. DHT, Dihydrotestosterone, is an androgen i.e. male hormone that leads to baldness. Some women also undergo hair thinning during menopause, although the result is less profound.

Age

Another notch against aging is the hair loss that it can lead to. Men especially are susceptible to age-induced hair line. It may start as early as in their thirties, and build to the point of receding hairline and the bald patch.

Genetics

Bad news for people who have parents or family history of baldness; you are very likely to be hit by this problem as well. Unlike the commonly held myth that men go bald only if such genes exist on the maternal side, you will be just as likely to have the problem if you have a genetic predisposition towards this condition, period.

Lifestyle choices

The only factor that is one’s control and leading to hair line recension are the lifestyle choices.

The top factor is diet; your hair needs the nourishment and sufficient nutrients to grow. Without it, the follicles weaken. Not only do the hair become luster less, but also fall off. Result; hair thinning and hair line problems.

Similarly, stress also leads to hair loss and ergo receding hairline as well. The impact of certain illnesses is also similar to the hair line and is referred to as telogen effluvium.

Moreover, bad lifestyle choices like smoking are also a big factor towards hair thinning. The poor circulation, release of toxins, haywire hormones, changed pH of scalp and decreased immunity are some of the ways cigarettes cause baldness in people.

Time to fix the issues!

While it is not possible to change your age, gender or genes, thus these causes of receding cannot be addressed with lifestyle changes. However, in other cases, making few adjustments can lead to positive impact on the health of the hair.

Cater to your scalp’s welfare

One of the most important ways to improve hair health is to eat well. Your hair follicles need certain nutrients to ensure a thick mane. It is important to consume natural foods, especially antioxidants. Zinc, iron, vitamin A, B-12 and E are some other nutrients necessary. Diet also is helpful in ensuring that hormonal fluctuations and the subsequent hair issues are kept at bay.

Furthermore, most of the time stress induced hair loss fixes on its own, however, it is best to take active steps to ensure better mental health. Yoga and meditation are fruitful in this regard.

In light of the many problems, including baldness, caused by smoking, it absolutely needs to go.

Oral and topical treatments

The type of medicine is contingent upon the cause of the receding hairline. However, many OTC medications like minoxidil can be used regardless.

Herbal treatments are also effective against hair loss. Aloe Vera, ginseng, gooseberry are amongst the common topical herbs. Oil concoction and subsequent massage is also an effective way to promote hair growth.

Essential oils like rosemary, peppermint, lavender oils are known for helping with receding hairline. However, never apply essential oils directly to the scalp, instead, mix with a carrier oil like coconut or almond oil.

Hair Transplant

When all fails, perhaps more aggressive approach like hair transplant is needed. It involves taking hair from the back of the head and planting at the crown to remedy the receding hairline. However, for this, you need to visit the best dermatologist in Islamabad.
