The majority of men by age of 50 suffer from heavy hair loss so called Androgenic Alopecia Areata or "male pattern baldness". Some men begin to loose hair in their early 25. Hair loss can be caused by hormonal changes in men's body, strong stress, side effect of certain medications. Hair loss may increase with age but male-pattern baldness is not abnormal, or a sign of abnormality, it simply suggests that your pattern of hair loss is, like 95% of hair loss, genetically predetermined.

It is normal to lose up to about 100 hairs a day although too much brushing,hair rubbing or excessive washing can add to this.

Since records began, men have documented their attempts to reverse the process of hair loss and cure baldness. The bible tells the story of how when Samson's hair was cut he lost his strength and power. The unspoken agenda for men is that to be hairless, or for the hair to be depleted, equates with a loss of power and virility, something that is clearly not the case.

Nowadays there are a few available hair loss solutions. Some of them are hair transplantation, prescription drugs and herbal pills.

Hair Transplants

In the case of hair transplants very small plugs of hair are taken from the side or back of the scalp and transplanted onto the bald patches. The procedure has improved over the years but it still takes a number of months to give a good effect.

Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that is rather expensive, painful and dangerous. The positive result cannot be guaranteed. You should be VERY CAREFUL while choosing this method of hair loss treatment! Never trust any advertisements promising you new hair and great look. Before taking a risk, you should consult MANY specialists. And choose the best. It is your right to make some investigation. You have to know whether the surgeon have already led successful surgical procedures and how many. What common side effects his patients faced.

The average cost of hair transplantation is approximately $7000. It can vary from country to country. You should know that some surgeons are not enough qualified or have a lack of experience. They just may want to cash in on YOUR health. If they fail the surgical procedure from the very beginning, you will be prompted to perform the second one.

In the end, you have a great risk to loose all of your healthy hair, because of a shock caused by a surgery. Moreover, instead of a new look and the new hair you may gain awful scars, strong stress and lost self-confidence.

Tissue expansion for male hair loss

Tiny balloons are inserted under the scalp between the areas of dense hair and gradually inflated over a number of months. This makes the area up to one third larger and it is this area that is surgically removed and the sides are pulled up to the top of the head.

Scalp reduction for male hair loss

Loose skin on the scalp is surgically removed pulling the hair on the sides of the head up. As the skin on the forehead is also sometimes slightly lifted it lessens wrinkles.

Prescription Drugs

There are two drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration and are shown to have a positive effect on balding, Finasteride and Minoxidil (Rogaine).

Finasteride is a 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitor, that is, it works by blocking 5-Alpha reductase and so prevents the enzyme from converting testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It is DHT that causes male pattern baldness. There are two drugs that contain Finasteride, Propecia and Proscar. Originally prescribed by doctors for benign prostate hyperplasia (prostate problems), the drug has been shown to stop hair loss and in some cases reverse the balding process. Finasteride takes about three months to show results and hair loss occurs a year after the drug is stopped. Side effects are unusual but can include impotence, reduced libido, ejaculation disorders, breast tenderness and enlargement, hypersensitivity reactions such as rashes and lip swelling. Women of child bearing potential should not touch the drug and condoms should be used as the drug is excreted in semen as there is a risk of birth defects.

Minoxidil (Regaine) is found to be effective in about 25% of men with baldness on the crown. Applied twice a day in a cream the hair growth only occurs as long as it is used. Minoxidil was originally approved to treat high blood pressure. Side effects are unusual but Regaine should not be used by people with a history of heart problems, sudden weight gain, chest pains, fainting, or rapid heartbeat.

Natural Hair Loss Treatment

Among the variety of available natural hair loss treatments Profinast has shown the best results.

Profinast is a revolutionary invention of Naturomeds. In 99% of cases it is able to permanently stop hair loss in men in just 7 days and then to restore normal hair growth cycle.

Made of fine herbs, vitamins and nutrients, Profinast is the safest and the most reliable hair loss treatment nowadays.

Profinast doesn't require FDA approval, because of it's NON-PRESCRIPTION formula.

It works by blocking DHT formation. Once formed, DHT binds to hair follicle, slows down hair growth and damages blood supply to the follicle. Thus, hair does not receive the necessary nutrition, begins to thin down and eventually falls.
There are no known side effects.

Profinast consists of the following compounds:

Vitamin B6: Vitamin B6 stimulates hair growth and stops hair loss.
Biotin: Vitamin B complex is essential for healthy skin, hair and nails.
Magnesium: helps strengthen hair follicles. Involved in chemical reactions in the body including energy metabolism, protein synthesis, neuromuscular transmission, bone structure and hair growth.
Zinc: stimulates cell division, increases hair density and reverses hair loss.
Saw Palmetto: reduces DHT formation and blocks the DHT receptor sites.
Nettle root: blocks the enzymes responsible for formation of DHT.
Pumpkin (Cucurbita Maxima): an essential hair supplement.
Eleuthero: decreases stress hormones.
Uva-Ursi: stimulates hair growth.
Muria Puama: relieves the stress, stimulates nervous system, increases virility and stimulates overall health.

Usually in a month after using Profinast, patients begin to notice the first results - the first hair growing. It looks like a hair of a newborn baby, very soft. At this phase, many people begin to worry, as with the first hair growth results they may experience the excessive loss of the healthy hair. It means that the reversal process has successfully begun. The treatment just forced the normal hair growth cycle. It is normally to loose up to 100 hairs per day! However it takes 6 months to complete full hair reversal process in order to supply the newly maintained hair with vitamins and nutrients and to make it strong straight from the root.
