um cara perguntou isso num blog mto bom que eu sempre frequento... a resposta do dr:
When you visit us, we evaluate you as follows:
1.Analysis of your hair bulk with a special measuring instrument will focus on the top and crown of your head to determine if there is any early, sub-clinical balding present. One part of your scalp will be compared to other parts of the scalp (the donor area) to determine if you lost any meaningful amount of hair bulk or are in the process of losing hair. This test is highly accurate for determining the degree of hair loss you have to date.
2.Evaluation of hair for miniaturization is an important test, because hair loss in its earliest period will show decreased hair shaft thicknesses. This can be done throughout the scalp and is a good predictor for where you hair loss will stop, even though photos may indicate you’re at the end of your balding process.
3.Hair density evaluation is critical, because you must know the supply of good hair and establish a good baseline. Hair transplantation is a supply/demand process and you most know what you can expect over the years in front of you. You would not want to run out of donor hair or start too early, as you may continue to bald, leaving you freaky looking, as so many patients have found themselves in this situation when planning was not done properly. We are all different and are born with different hair densities. Add to that the ethnic hair densities found in different people (Caucasians are born with an average 100,000 hairs, Asians with an average 80,000 hairs and Africans with an average 60,000 hairs). Within each ethnic group, variations in the number of birth hairs vary considerably, so these measurements will give you guidance as to what can be accomplished and more important, what can not be accomplished. As an example, for an African who has a very advanced balding process, he would run out of hair before he could fill in the bald area so he needs to know this right up front, not find out about it after he starts the transplant process. The same issues reflect all ethnic variances.
4.Build a Master Plan for the present and the future, because hair loss is a progressive process. You must have a plan as to what you are going to do as you age and in the next 10-20 years, the progressive process should have slowed down substantially. The drug Propecia (finasteride) is generally safe and side effect free in 98% of people who take it. If you are really balding, there is no alternative way to hold on to your hair. Frankly, all of the other remedies out in the marketplace will not work as well as this drug, if they work at all.
