What Problems Can Arise from Transplanting the Crown Too Early?

Q: What is the problem with transplanting the crown too early? -- P.L., Newark, NJ A: If a person’s hair loss continues –- which is almost always the case -– the crown will expand and leave the transplanted area isolated, i.e. looking like a pony-tail. The surgeon can perform additional hair transplant procedures to re-connect the transplanted area to the fringe, but this is a large area that can require a lot of hair, and it is often impossible to determine when a person is young if the donor supply will be adequate.

Why is there a Different Consultation Fee for Diffuse Thinning versus Patterned Hair Loss?

Q: Why is the consult fee more for diffuse thinning than for a regular visit? -- B.F., Altherton, CA A: Diffuse hair loss, more common in women, can be the result of a number of underlying medical conditions and therefore it usually requires an extended medical evaluation. If you are a male or female with obvious diffuse thinning from androgenetic alopecia (common baldness), or if you have patterned hair loss where the diagnosis is straightforward, the fee is less because an extensive evaluation is not required. Please visit our Hair Transplant Costs & Consultation Fees page for more information.

Hair Loss

Male pattern baldness, or androgenetic alopecia, is very common in adult men. It is caused by genetic traits that are passed down through a person’s inherited DNA. The genes can come from either parent. Depending on the age of the patient and the stage of his hair loss, the baldness can typically be classified in one of twelve classes of patterned hair loss described in the Norwood Classification. In women, the diagnosis of hair loss is more complex, as the most common presentation of balding, a diffuse pattern, can have a variety of non-androgenetic causes. These may include pregnancy, gynecologic problems, birth control pills, and thyroid disease. Because underlying medical conditions can produce hair loss that closely mimics the diffuse pattern seen in genetic hair loss, a careful diagnostic evaluation by a doctor is particularly important for female patients.
