How long does balding last?
Hair follicles which have atrophied (died) will never return. As such balding is permanent. One of the difficulties with any method of hair restoration is predicting what extent a person will bald in the future. The hair that is moved by hair restoration techniques does not “respond” to hormonal changes, and therefore can be considered permanent. Because we don t know how much a person is going to bald in the future, yet the hair we are moving is permanent; one of the problems with scalp reductions (with or without tissue expansion) and flaps is their relative inflexibility in giving natural results which are long lasting and can be modified as future balding presents.
