Hair Loss Treatments and Restoring a Receding Hairline

I am experiencing [tag]hair loss[/tag] of about 40-60 strands a day. I have lost lots at my temples. It’s gone really deep. My goals are:

1.   To prevent further [tag]balding[/tag].
2.   If somehow I can [tag]regrow hair[/tag] at my temples (is this too much to ask for)

I read about [tag]platelet rich plasma[/tag] ([tag]PRP[/tag]) and [tag]ACell[/tag]. I don’t know how effective they are. Can anyone explain if this is effective? I don’t know if I have [tag]thinning hair[/tag]. I have undergone no [tag]hair loss treatment[/tag] yet. My stylist told me that there is thinning of hair at the front. Please advise which doctor I should consider in the Los Angeles area.

There is currently no non-surgical hair loss treatment available that is likely to restore your receding hairline. However, your best bet to retain the hair you have and potentially add density to thinning hair is using [tag]Rogaine[/tag] ([tag]minoxidil[/tag]) and [tag]Propecia[/tag] ([tag]finasteride[/tag]). These are the only two clinically proven and FDA approved drugs for the treatment of [tag]androgenic alopecia[/tag].

In addition to these drugs, you may also wish to add [tag]Nizoral[/tag] Shampoo to your [tag]hair growth[/tag] regimen. Nizoral contains the active ingredient [tag]Ketoconazole[/tag] which may be a mild [tag]DHT[/tag] blocker. Used in combination, Rogaine, Propecia and Nizoral are known affectionately as “The Big Three”.

To restore your hairline, you may require [tag]hair transplant[/tag] surgery. To learn more about your options I suggest consulting with one or more of the prescreened, quality [tag]hair restoration[/tag] physicians recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

I also highly recommend spending some quality time reading our Hair Loss Forum and Social Network. There are many knowledgeable and friendly members here, including some of the world’s finest hair transplant surgeons, ready and willing to answer your questions.
