If My Grandfather and Father Have Hair Loss, Is It Possible That I Will Too?

 

Hello, this is Dana Plastic Surgery.

Today, we will

bring together the questions our Dana Plastic Surgery YouTube subscribers ask most often

and answer them in an O/X format.

Among the questions were

whether the medicines used for M-shaped hair loss and alopecia areata are separately distinguished, and

whether there is a possibility of hair loss if my father and grandfather have hair loss.

Together with Director Yoo Seung-hyun, we will answer your questions in an O/X format. 

1. Are the medicines used for M-shaped hair loss and alopecia areata separately distinguished?

The correct answer is O.

Director Yoo Seung-hyun said that they are separately distinguished.

M-shaped hair loss is mainly treated with finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil-based medications.

 

Alopecia areata has several treatment methods depending on the size and stage,

and the starting point is a treatment method in which steroid injections are administered into the alopecia areata area.

2. If my father and grandfather have hair loss, is there a possibility that I will too?

Director Yoo Seung-hyun’s answer was both O and X.

Hair loss does not follow a single genetic rule, and depending on which chromosome is inherited,

hair loss may or may not appear depending on the gene combination.

. . .

So far, we have looked at your questions about hair loss

through O/X answers.

If you have concerns or difficulties about hair loss,

please consider resolving it together with us at Dana Plastic Surgery.
