What options do I have in confronting male pattern baldness?
In the traditional sense, toupees (wigs) have seemed to be the finest practical souktion for men who have a desire to appear rather hairier than they actually are. Of Late, there have been a number of preposterous, several effective and a couple of drug methods that are worth taking into consideration.
- Fastening natural "donated" hair to the male scalp by a procedure called the "polyfuse method" results in a genuine look and feel that is unnoticeable when compared to regular male hair. It uses a thin medical joining agent (or glue). This method has substituted re weaving, an antiquated, tedious and unnatural process that is no longer available in the US, Canada or the UK.
- At KRB Enterprise we highly recommended a baldness treatment know as PropeciaŽ (finasteride), which is recognized worldwide. Propecia which is a highly effective prescription drug inhibits the capacity of the male hormones ability to hinder normal hair growth. It has been given US, FDA approval and is now available from your physician. Propecia produces re-growth of hair on over half the men who take it, but it could take more than a year of permanent use to get great results. There is a slight (less than 2 - 3) percent chance that it will adversely affect your sex life.

Hair Loss in Men and KRB Baldness Treatment
What is Male Pattern Baldness?
Male Baldness is commonly referred to as alopecia in the medical fraternity. The male hair also tends to recede from the temples. Quite a number of the causes of male hair loss are very rare and usually are related to unusual diseases and conditions as well as high risk treatments for life-threatening conditions such as cancer.
Hair loss in men can also commonly occur because of insufficient iron in the diet, an underactive thyroid gland or scalp infection can also be a problem, so our doctor's will check to see whether these are perhaps the cause in your case. Taking certain medications can results in male pattern baldness. In our approach to hair loss treatment at KRB we concern ourselves purely with the physical causes of male pattern baldness in mind, which is a very general advancing loss of scalp hair from the top and the front of the head.
