Age Appropriate Hair Restoration


No hair loss situation is the same. Similarly, each hair loss solution should not be the same; every person and solution should be unique to their age, needs and situation. Have you ever seen a hair restoration solution that is not age appropriate, meaning the results don’t look natural? At New England Associates®, we strive to give our clients the hair they desire with the most natural looking results that are age appropriate. So which hair loss solution is age appropriate for you? Let’s find out!

How old are you and how advanced is your hair loss?
The earlier you decide to treat hair loss the better off you are at achieving natural looking results. The Norwood Hamilton scale is a good indicator of what stage of hair loss you may be in.  Levels 1-3 may not require hair restoration but require simpler solutions such as laser hair therapy or hair transplants. Depending on how advanced your hair loss is, New England Associates® has a solution that is tailored for your specific case that is age appropriate. How many times have you seen an older person with a hair piece that just doesn’t look natural? We will try to thicken your existing hair while growing new hair so that your final results look as natural as possible!

What are your options?
For people in the early to mid-stages of hair loss we recommend a multi-therapeutic approach that utilizes scientifically proven products and devices that slow hair loss and even grow new hair! For people experiencing advanced hair loss, we offer surgical and non-surgical hair grafting. Surgical hair grafting is typically performed when a patient has a sufficient amount of hair left in the donor area. 

Is your solution to hair loss age appropriate?
Whichever hair restoration solution we determine is best for you, we factor in how natural the results will look. An older man or woman may not have a thick head of colorful hair, but we will cover bald spots and improve the quality of your hair, making the final results look age appropriate.

The Science of Hair Loss

Have you ever wondered what your hair is actually made of or how it grows? Hair is made from a protein known as keratin that is produced in hair follicles in the outer layer of skin. Follicles create new hair cells while old cells are being pushed out through the surface of the skin. Average hair growth rate is about six inches per year and the average adult has somewhere between 100,000 to 150,000 hairs. Losing around a 100 hairs per day is normal.


As people age, their hair growth rate slows. There are many types of hair loss, called alopecia. Some conditions cause hair to thin, some cause hair to fall out, some cause patches, etc. So, what is the underlying reason for hair loss?
There are things that cause hair loss: genes, hormones, stress, illness, disease, drugs, chemotherapy, burns, scars, etc. Shampooing too often, tight braiding, dyeing, and perms can damage your hair and also cause thinning. Even what you eat can affect your scalp health. A low-protein diet can increase chances of hair loss.
If any of these causes sound familiar, or you know someone who would benefit from professional hair restoration, visit us at http://www.HairStart.com/. At New England Associates, we offer all the options that effectively stops hair loss and repairs, replaces, restores or re-grows lost hair.

The Difference Between Male and Female Hair Loss


Both men and women experience hair loss, but they tend to experience hair loss in different ways. Men with male pattern baldness usually start to see signs of loss when their hairline starts to recede. Women with female pattern baldness start to notice the signs of hair loss when their hair starts to thin on top.

Because men and women usually have different forms of hair loss, hair loss specialists will use different scales to see just how advanced the hair loss really is.

Men use the Hamilton-Norwood Scale. This scale, first created in the 1950s, shows the many stages of hair loss in which a man can have. Most of the hair loss images display a receding hair line and thinning hair around the crown of the head as shown below.




Women use the Ludwig scale to check their stage of hair loss. Most of the images show thinning and balding of hair down the center of the head where the hair parts down the middle.



At New England Associates, we understand the stress accompanied by hair loss. Visit www.HairStart.com to obtain a better understanding of the differences between male and female hair loss or to schedule a FREE hair and scalp analysis.
