Hair loss getting you down, and you don’t know where to find treatment for curled hair? At Beverly Hills Hair Restoration, we offer all kinds of hair loss treatments, including textured hair. 

Hair loss is common globally and affects all races. It doesn’t matter whether you are an Asian, Caucasian, or African-Caribbean. People of color are more prone to specific kinds of hair loss conditions. 

What Makes Curled Hair Different?

What makes up hair are proteins and layers that include the cortex, cuticle, and medulla. What makes African hair different from other races and is that it is curled up above and beneath the skin. Other hair types are oval-shaped, while African hair is elliptical and less dense than the hair in other races. 

Types of Hair Loss Conditions That Affect African Hair 

Men from other races are four times prone to lose hair prematurely than men of African descent. The most common hair loss condition for people with curled hair is male pattern hair baldness. In women who have African hair, female pattern hair loss (FPHL) is often confused for central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia. CCCA starts in the mid-scalp or crown and spreads outwards as inflammatory scarring alopecia. Traction alopecia (TA), which is common in women of color, is also often misdiagnosed. What brings up this type of hair loss is the styling of hair with braids for a long time. 

Fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is popular in women today, which targets the hair margin in front of the scalp. This type of hair loss is common in colored women is an immune-mediated form of alopecia called lichen planopilaris. For women of other races, nutritional deficiencies and hormones need to be ruled out since they can also cause hair loss. 

How is Hair Transplant Done in African Hair?

Hair transplant done in other races is through a procedure called follicular unit excision or transplantation. During this treatment, hair in the form of grafts is removed in the donor area and implanted in the recipient area where there is hair loss. In African hair, the process is almost the same, but a few adjustments need to be made to make the treatment successful. 

While performing the FUE treatment, the doctor has to reduce the transaction of the follicles using a larger diameter punch. The reason why this is done is that Africa hair follicles are curled up, and using a punch with a narrow diameter may cut across the hair follicles. The downside of using a punch with a larger diameter is that it results in larger wounds and longer downtime. This may also cause the risk of leaving scars. 

The doctor is going to use the trip FUT hair transplant treatment; when using a blade to make incisions, he has to be extra careful to prevent transacting the curly hair under the scalp. 

Conclusion 

If you have African hair and you have some form of hair loss, you can count on BHHR for the best hair loss treatments. We also use state of the art equipment that guarantee excellent desired results.
