BaldTruthTalk.com - A New Discussion Forum For The Hair Loss Community

Where do you get your medical information? We’ll, if you’re living in the 21st century and reading this article the answer is probably the internet. As a matter of fact, the world wide web is the most widely used source for medical information both by medical professionals and the lay public. Did you ever ask yourself where this information came from or if it’s even accurate?

Well, if you’re researching surgical hair restoration you should!

Just like any other industry selling a product or service, the hair loss and hair transplant field is a fiercely competitive business. It is an industry that is almost completely unregulated. Any doctor who has a valid medical license can claim that they are an expert hair transplant surgeon and market themselves to the unsuspecting public as a “leader” in the field. Anyone can launch a hair loss website and control the flow of information as they see fit. [Read more]

Hair Loss Genes Discovered, What Does This Mean For Us?

Has science finally found the Holy Grail for the follically challenged? Probably not, but it does appear that we are getting closer.

Two articles published in Nature Genetics may help to better explain the genetic predisposition to male pattern hair loss, and to one day give scientists the ability to grow DHT resistant hair follicles for use in hair restoration.

The first article was published by researchers at McGill University, King’s College London and GlaxoSmithKline Inc. These researchers identified two genetic variants in men that together produce an increased incidence of male pattern hair loss that is seven times greater than those without these variants.

Dealing With Hair Loss and My Concerns For The Future | Mike’s Hair Loss Story

It was a week or two before my 23rd birthday and while at work, I finally took a closer look in the mirror at what I believed were two extremely small bald spots at the temples. I thought it had something to do with my haircut, or the way my hair was combed, but even after my co workers told me it was nothing, I knew deep down that something bad was going on.

All my life I looked at my father’s side of the families terrible male pattern baldness. Growing up however, I never ever once thought that baldness could happen to me. I just felt that I wasn’t the type, and certainly didn’t have the “look” to go bald. Over on my mothers side, along with my maternal grandfather, it’s 100% full heads of hair. But fast forward a little over a year from that day at work, while having just turned 24, and my temples have now receded drastically to the point where I can barely cover them up anymore. Everyday is a struggle, having to worry about fixing my hair. [Read more]

Talking About Hair Loss - It’s About Time

Our culture is peppered with taboo subjects, things we just don’t discuss. Some of these are topics we only touch on with family while others are strictly for conversations with friends. Still more subjects may be considered unsuitable for mixed company. Then there are the topics that nobody discusses at all.

As our society grows older and wiser, we are slowly learning to embrace and encourage open discussions and to share our thoughts and feelings about the difficult obstacles in life. One such obstacle is hair loss. Yet we still have a long way to go in bringing hair loss into casual conversation in a meaningful way.

Suffering any kind of loss can be devastating. Hair loss is no different. Yet most hair loss sufferers remain silent as they go through the trying experience that hair loss incurs. [Read more]

My Hair Transplant Nightmare - Adrian’s Story

I wish I was one of those happy guys in the after pictures that I see on the internet, but I guess I’m not so lucky. Four years ago I had a hair transplant. I thought that I did my research by ordering a couple of brochures and DVDs from television and by reading the internet boards about hair transplants.

I went to three different hair transplant clinics to have face to face meetings, and I spoke with my family doctor before I made the decision to take the plunge. After a considerable amount of research I decided to go to a very popular clinic (I prefer not to mention the name) in Beverly Hills. I was so excited the day of my surgery. Everyone seemed so professional.

After I changed and was given some pills I was asked to sign a bunch of paper work. I was not told that I would have to sign anything more than I had already signed when I scheduled surgery. At this point I was a little out of it from the relaxation medication so I just kind of signed the papers and figured that there’s no turning back now. I found out later that this was all the stuff that discussed the complications and the fact that there are no guarantees and such. [Read more]
