Can we use beard and body hair for head?

Yes we can use beard and body hair for baldness in selected cases. Every patient is not a good candidate for beard or BHT procedure. These follicles can be used to enhance density, repair scar and persons with less scalp donor area.  Beard hairs are stronger after scalp head donor grafts so first priority should be scalp donor area and second should be beard. We can also use chest, abdomen and back of body hair however these are not strong enough so should be used in selected cases. There are chances these non scalp grafts may fall permanently after 5 to 7 years however beard hair will remain lifelong.

This medicine or drug is used to stop the male hormone conversion into the active form called DHT. When there is less or no conversion to DHT, follicle growth stimulates and one can see improvement in density, number of hair and thickness. This drug has some side effects and when someone stops it, follicles stimulation or growth decreases, DHT conversion starts again and this active form of hormone attaches to the DHT receptor at the base of follicles. As a result, thinning, weakness of the hair shaft and ultimately shedding and baldness patches will become obvious.

Many local and systemic diseases may cause hair loss. Therefore, it is important to know the cause of the hair loss and treatment accordingly. For example Hypothyroid and lupus diseases may cause shedding and thinning.
