Hair loss is a common concern that affects people of all ages and backgrounds. It can have a significant impact on self-esteem and overall well-being. Our team, led by Dr Malay Mehta, is dedicated to providing effective hair loss treatment in Mumbai to help you regain your confidence and a full head of hair.
What is hair loss?
Hair loss is a natural part of the hair growth cycle. Hair grows, rests, and eventually falls out to make way for new growth. However, various factors can disrupt this cycle, leading to excessive hair fall and baldness.
Male pattern baldness and female pattern baldness differ in their patterns and causes. In men, it typically results in a receding hairline and bald spots on the crown of the scalp. Women, on the other hand, often experience diffuse thinning of the scalp.
The stages of hair loss
Stage 1: Normal hair growth – hair looks full, no thinning or receding.
Stage 2: Minimal hair loss – slight receding at temples (men) or slight widening of the part (women).
Stage 3: Beginning of hair thinning – thinning at the crown, receding hairline may be more visible (both).
Stage 4: Moderate hair loss – crown and front areas thinning, distinct “m” shape in men.
Stage 5: Advanced hair loss – substantial loss with men’s receding hairline meeting the crown, women may have extensive thinning but retain some hair in front.
Dr Malay Mehta, a renowned hair transplant specialist, assesses the stages and causes of hair fall to create personalised hair loss treatments.
