Why hair transplantation works
The medical process for hair restoration simply involves the transplanting of hairs and follicles from one area of the head to another. In the case of "male pattern baldness", the hairs on the back and sides of the head, from what we call the "donor area" — that are resistant to the hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) — are artfully moved to the thinning areas at the top and front of the head. It is important to remember that the hair follicle itself is resistant to DHT, so even when moved to the top and front of the head, the follicle retains this resistance, and the transplanted hair thrives where the genetically sensitive hair failed.

The technique for eyebrow restoration is similar to the artistry and the permanence of hair restoration. The fast and effective procedure takes only two to three hours and is performed by a Bosley physician. The technique involves taking a small amount of hair from just above the ear area and transplanting them to the eyebrow region. This is a highly artistic procedure in which a brow is individually designed just for you based on your facial type, your features, and what you personally want to achieve.

The Norwood Chart displays the most common examples of "male pattern baldness". Identifying your own type of hair loss is a first step in determining a treatment plan. You'll notice that even Class 6 hair loss patterns still retain the donor hair necessary for a successful hair restoration.
