Male Hair Loss- Can a Person Regrow Hair If he is Over 50 or is it Too Late to Address Male Pattern Baldness at the Age of 50?

Male pattern baldness or Androgenetic Alopecia, is the most common type of baldness that afflicts male population all over the world. It affects almost 85% of the men during their lifetime. It is caused by a combination of genetic predisposition and the heightened sensitivity of the male hormone Dihydrotestosterone. As a result of these, the hair follicles shrink and eventually lead to balding.

As the name suggests, this baldness follows a set pattern- a receding hairline and balding patch on the crown and it generally starts when one is in their 20’s. It takes time to complete the cycle of balding which varies from person to person. With it comes a baggage of number of other issues that create psychological stress- as balding has long been associated with old age, people don’t hesitate in calling you ‘baldy, oldie or uncle’! Acute stress causing depression, sense of disfigurement, social avoidance- all ruin the life of a hair loss victim.

Is it too late to seek relief if you have reached the age of 50?

No, it’s not! It’s a myth prevalent due to misinformation and ignorance. Male pattern baldness may hit different men at different age and takes from months to years to complete its cycle. Some unfortunate people start witnessing it as early as in their 20’s whereas other lucky ones may see its impact in their 40’s or 50's. Therefore, there is no thumb rule that can rule out regrowth of hair just because you have reached 50. Only factor that is essential is to seek professional help as early as possible.

When looking for baldness treatment, it is most crucial to know what stage of pattern baldness has your hair reached. Visit a well reputed clinic like Advanced Hair Studio (AHS), to get a professional Advanced Hair Check done so that the hair specialist can assess the level of damage and recommend effective hair loss treatment. If diagnosed in early stages hair regrowth for men is possible through hair treatments like Advanced Laser therapy that can stimulate and bring back the deep-rooted follicles to life. Other hair treatments like AHS- Complete, AHS- Home Program, AHS- Fitness Program help in preventing the strands from falling further.

But if the follicles have miniaturized completely then those spots will not witness any regrowth. Under such circumstances, medications, non-surgical hair replacement or hair transplant are the options which can bring about relief. Some medications have been available for long but not gained popularity due to their side-effects. Non-surgical hair replacements cannot regrow hair, they just manage to hide the baldness and are temporary solutions.
