When Young Men Lose Hair Before Age 21

August 26, 2009


Hair loss is normally considered as a problem that occurs in old age. However, this is not true. The problem of hair loss can also be faced by young men who are even less than 21 years of age.

The problem of hair loss in such a young age can really come as a shock and distress for young men, as it is least expected that hair loss would occur in such a young age.

The first symptom of hair loss in such a situation occurs in the form of thinning of hair in the frontal hair line’s temporal area, which is just on top of the eyebrows. The forehead appears to be high in such a case. Combing, brushing and shampooing the hair may result into more hair shedding.

The cause for such a pattern of hair loss in young men may be hereditary. There may be cases when the problem may be passed from the grandparents to the parents and then to the children. Though this may be not that surprising for the young man, but he may still not be expecting the pattern of hair loss to start taking place at such a young age of his life.

This kind of hair loss in men is termed as male pattern baldness, which may result in having an emotional and psychological impact on the man. He may feel very unattractive and may try to remain away from the social gatherings. In this kind of situation, the young man may be attracted towards the hair loss treatment options available in the market, such as hair transplantation.

The hair transplantation method of hair loss restoration is a costly and a surgical procedure. In this treatment, the hair are taken from the hair growth areas of the scalp and transplanted onto the bald areas. However, it is very important to note here that once an individual opts for this option of restoring the lost hair, he might have to go for several surgical procedures to get a natural look. Also, the efficacy of the method at such a young age has not been proved yet.

Thus, instead of going for hair transplantation, it is very important for the young man to consult a hair loss specialist who can give you the right advice with respect to your problem.
