Permanent hair replacement options include regrowing the hair and surgical hair transplants. Temporary hair replacement options include hairpieces and wigs.

These causes will have a direct impact upon the type of hair replacement option you should choose and which will be most successful.
Certain medications and treatments might result in temporary hair loss and should be looked at accordingly. In these situations, a hairpiece is often all that is needed to maintain self-esteem.

Hair transplants involve using hair plugs that have been removed from areas of the scalp that contain plenty of hair, and moving those plugs to areas where balding is present. Though hair transplants are considered permanent solutions, it is possible that the patient will require several hair transplant session over the years.
Scalp reduction is the process of removing excess skin located in the scalp area where baldness is prevalent. Then, after the scalp has been reduced, areas with sufficient amounts of hair are stretched to cover the area that was removed.
