Hair Replacement
Hair loss is a condition experienced by both men and women. Primarily caused by a combination of aging, a change in hormones and a family history of baldness, hair loss may also result from burns or trauma. With tragic events, hair replacement is considered a reconstructive procedure and may be covered by health insurance. The best candidates for hair replacement are those with healthy hair growing at the back and sides of the head.
