Dr. Lee Kyung-Koo, Banobagi Plastic Surgery Hair Transplant Clinic
Population of hair loss is 10 million nowadays. One in five Koreans is suffering from
hair loss. According to the latest data from the Korea Health Insurance
Review & Assessment Service, more than 1.03 millon people visited the hospital
for hair loss treatment in 2012-2016.
By age, young people in their 20s and 30s accounted for about 44% of the population
in order of 30s (24%), 40s (22.4%), and 20s (20.4%).
More and more people are experiencing hair loss and are becoming younger.
The relevant market of hair loss is also growing every year. The market size is expected
to grow by more than 20% annually to 4 trillion won annually, including related products
such as OTC(hair loss medicine), pharmacy hair loss treatment, hair loss shampoo,
hair loss shampoo, and hair loss care.
Usually, the cause of hair loss is related to heredity, hormone effects, and lifestyle. Stress, drinking, and eating habits can cause hair loss as well. In addition, hair loss may also occur due to abnormal immune function or childbirth. For men, the hair grows thinner,
leading to a lot of M-shaped hair loss. Females, on the other hand, retain their hairline but have thinned hair along the line from the forehead to the top of the head. Because women have more female hormone 'estrogen' than male hormone 'androgen', the hair loss, hair thinning are rarely seen as a whole.
The most important thing before treating hair loss is to identify the cause.
Knowing the cause first, then do not miss out on the treatment.
If they rely on folk remedies or unproven scalp care as a temporary treatments, they often miss period of treatment. If you miss the treatment, your hair loss can get wider or faster.
In general, hair loss treatment is based on medication or hair transplantation.
Medications are primarily effective in conservative ways of preventing hair loss, and hair transplantation can be considered if you want faster and more active treatment.
Hair transplantation involves relocating back hair without hair loss to the area where
hair loss has progressed. The transplanted hair does not fall out and lasts a lifetime.
However, having a hair transplant doesn't mean you're done with hair loss treatment.
After surgery, the patient himself should make an effort to manage the scalp according to
the temperate living life and doctor's prescription. In other words, hair transplantation is recognized as the beginning of hair loss treatment, and it is necessary to keep hair loss
after surgery to protect precious hair.
