Introduction
Maybe you’ve noticed your hairline creeping back, a little more scalp showing in photos, or extra strands collecting in the shower drain. The good news for our clients is that our modern hair restoration technology has made it possible, actually to do something about it.
At Let’s Get Hairy in New York City, we know hair loss can take a toll on your confidence and your self-image. We take a personalized approach to every client’s case, helping men understand what’s really happening and which treatment options can give them their best results.
Each hair comes from a follicle under your skin’s surface, and over time, these follicles can shrink, producing thinner and shorter strands, and eventually, stop producing hair altogether.
The process doesn’t happen overnight, but once the cause of your hair loss is identified, we can create a targeted treatment plan to help reawaken inactive follicles and support new growth.
Below are the most common types and causes of hair loss in men.
This is the most common type of hair loss among men. Male pattern baldness is hereditary and stems from the hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone), which gradually shrinks your hair follicles.
For many men, FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation provides a long-term solution by relocating healthy follicles from the back or sides of the scalp to thinning areas. The results look natural and grow just like your own hair. To support new growth and strengthen existing strands, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy can also be added to boost follicle health and stimulate regrowth.
Telogen effluvium will occur when a larger number of hair follicles than usual enter the resting phase at the same time, causing excessive shedding. This can be triggered by stress, illness, surgery, or even nutritional deficiencies.
At Let’s Get Hairy in New York City, our treatments, such as PRP therapy, help encourage new growth by increasing blood flow and delivering growth factors directly to the follicles. Scalp rejuvenation treatments can also nourish and rebalance the scalp environment, helping your hair return to its natural cycle more quickly.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks healthy hair follicles. This leads to small, round patches of baldness on the scalp or even other parts of the body.
In New York City, Let’s Get Hairy offers exosome therapy, harnessing powerful regenerative properties to calm inflammation and support follicle recovery. For those dealing with visible patches, scalp micropigmentation (SMP) can create the illusion of fuller, thicker hair while encouraging natural regrowth beneath the surface.
Tight hairstyles, such as braids, man buns, or ponytails, can put too much tension on the scalp. Over time, this constant pulling can damage follicles and cause permanent thinning along the hairline or sides of the head.
The best solution is prevention and early care. By avoiding tight styles and incorporating treatments like PRP therapy, many men can restore healthier follicle function and stimulate new hair growth in affected areas. If the damage is more advanced, FUE transplantation can be used to restore the hairline with precision and natural-looking density.
Chronic stress, lack of sleep, smoking, and poor nutrition can all contribute to hair thinning. When your body is under stress, blood flow to the scalp decreases, and your hair’s growth cycle is disrupted.
At Let’s Get Hairy in New York City, we take a comprehensive approach that considers your entire lifestyle, along with our medical treatments such as PRP therapy and scalp rejuvenation. Our goal is to help your hair stay stronger, thicker, and more resilient over time.
Buildup, blocked follicles, and chronic inflammation can all make it difficult for healthy hair to grow. In these cases, addressing scalp health with deep cleansing treatments, microneedling, or growth factor therapy can make a noticeable difference.
Healthy follicles start with a healthy scalp, which is why every treatment plan at Let’s Get Hairy in New York City begins with a detailed scalp analysis to pinpoint the issue and recommend the best approach for optimal regrowth.
The earlier you take action, the better your chances of preserving and restoring your hair. Many of our male clients wait until thinning becomes advanced before seeking help, but starting treatment early can slow or even reverse the process.
