Stages of Female Hair Loss
Hair loss experts employ the Ludwig scale to classify various levels of female pattern hair loss. The mildest level is stage 1, and the most severe is stage 3. Stage 1 hair loss often shows a visible scalp when the hair is parted at the top of the head.
In stage 2, patients notice increased visibility of the scalp in the center and some thinning in surrounding areas. Stage 3 is characterized by severe thinning over the entire head. Women often experience traction alopecia, where tight braids cause permanent hair loss at the edges.
Treatment For Female Pattern Hair Loss: Scalp Micropigmentation
SMP, or Scalp Micropigmentation, is a state-of-the-art, non-surgical treatment for female pattern baldness. This process implants organic, plant-based pigments into the scalp, mimicking the look of hair follicles. SMP provides instant natural hair density with no need for recovery time.
Zang SMP uses pigments that replicate real hair follicles, transforming your appearance without invasive surgery or painful transplants. SMP can cover bald spots, stimulate the appearance of hair growth, and enhance your look.
The SMP treatment usually involves two to three sessions. Initial sessions occur a week apart and are customized for female pattern hair loss. A third session, if necessary, may be scheduled one to three months later to finalize the density and appearance.
Would a Hair Transplant Treat Hair Loss?
Hair transplants are generally not the best solution for female or male pattern hair loss. They require a supply of donor hair grafts, which might not be available if thinning is extensive throughout the scalp.
Transplanting grafts into an area with existing hair could risk damaging some of the native follicles, which might result in a reduction in hair quantity post-transplantation.
SMP is a highly effective and safe permanent solution for women with hair loss. It restores hair density immediately, without harming follicles, needing surgery, or causing downtime.
