Seborrheic alopecia in men is treated with general treatment, medication and hair transplantation.
1. General treatment: some patients with family genetic history can take Finasteride orally to effectively improve mild and moderate seborrheic alopecia. Minoxidil tincture can be used externally to promote hair growth.
2. Drug treatment: long-term oral finasteride, external minoxidil tincture, ketoconazole lotion effectively inhibit oil secretion. If after treatment, hair loss has been stabilized or controlled, patients wish to further improve, hair transplantation can be carried out.
3. Hair transplantation: Hair transplantation is to separate the hair follicles from the area of congenital androgen insensitivity (usually occipital) and transplant them to the bald area.
4. Others: Patients with severe baldness who are ineffective in medication or surgery can be covered with hair pieces and wigs. Clinically, low energy laser treatment is also available. It utilizes specific laser light to penetrate the surface layer of the skin, improve the environment around the hair follicles and play a role in assisting the treatment.
The above medications and treatments should be used under the guidance of a doctor, avoid self-medication. The same disease, the patient’s physical condition is different, different stages of the disease, the treatment method is different, should be standardized under the guidance of the doctor treatment.
