How Hair Loss Really Occurs and Why Treatments are more Effective for Some than Others
Most active members on our [tag]hair loss[/tag] forum know that [tag]male pattern baldness[/tag] is caused by genetics and that the hormone [tag]dihydrotestosterone[/tag] ([tag]DHT[/tag]) is responsible for the loss of hair genetically susceptible to it. Some [tag]hair loss treatments[/tag] like [tag]Propecia[/tag] ([tag]finasteride[/tag]) work by blocking 5-alpha-reductase enzymes which when combined with testosterone, produce DHT. But why do proven [tag]hair loss treatment[/tag] solutions like Propecia work wonders for some and aren’t as effective for others?
On this hair loss forum thread, forum members discuss their experience with [tag]hair loss solutions[/tag] nd offer an explanation as to why some [tag]balding[/tag] men have better success than others with non-surgical treatments. You are encouraged to offer your own experience and input.

New_Hair,
I’m pleased to hear that you had a thorough consult with Dr. Kahen and that he seems genuine. But remember that there is more to selecting a quality surgeon than finding one who is a nice guy.
I am not familiar with your surgeon, but if you followed through with a procedure, I invite you to share your experience and before and after pictures with us on our hair loss forum at http://www.hair-restoration-info.com/eve. This way, our community can offer their feedback and see some of your doctor’s work.
Best wishes,
Bill

It’s so hard to find an honest and sincere hair restoration doctor, and I had met with several surgeons before finding Dr. Kahen from Beverly Hills Hair Restoration. He gives free one-on-one consultations for anyone interested in hair restoration surgery and I felt really comfortable talking to him about what I needed. He explained everything including fees in our first meeting, so I scheduled an appointment right away. He is definitely a great resource for anyone looking for a skilled and experienced hair restoration doctor. – Tim P.
