Stages of Female Hair Loss
The Ludwig scale is a system that hair loss specialists employ to determine the severity of female pattern hair loss, from stage 1, the least severe, to stage 3, the most severe. In stage 1, the scalp often becomes more apparent when the hair is parted at the crown.
Female pattern hair loss in stage 2 is marked by increased scalp visibility in the central part, with further thinning in the surrounding areas. Stage 3 indicates extensive thinning across the entire scalp. Traction alopecia, often seen in women, occurs when tight hairstyles cause irreversible hair loss at the edges of the scalp.
Treatment For Female Pattern Hair Loss: Scalp Micropigmentation
SMP, or Scalp Micropigmentation, is an advanced, non-invasive technique designed to combat female pattern baldness. Through the use of organic, plant-based pigments, SMP creates the realistic appearance of hair follicles on the scalp, delivering immediate results that require no recovery period.
The pigments used at Zang SMP in Miami are carefully designed to imitate the look of genuine hair follicles, offering a non-surgical solution to hair loss. SMP is capable of covering bald areas, promoting the illusion of hair growth, and elevating your overall appearance.
To complete the SMP process, two to three sessions are usually needed. The initial sessions, which are spaced a week apart, are tailored to treat female pattern hair loss. A potential third session might be scheduled between one to three months later to adjust the density and perfect the appearance.
Would a Hair Transplant Treat Hair Loss?
Hair transplants are generally not suitable for most cases of female pattern hair loss (or male pattern hair loss) due to their reliance on a supply of donor hair grafts, which might be limited when thinning is extensive across the entire head.
Moreover, placing hair grafts into regions with existing natural hair can pose a risk of injuring the current hair follicles during surgery, which might result in a decrease in hair quantity after the transplant.
For women with hair loss, SMP represents the safest and most effective permanent remedy. This technique delivers immediate results by restoring hair density, eliminating the risk of follicle damage, avoiding surgical procedures, and requiring no downtime.
