Introducing EncoreTM hair augmentation, an individualized approach.

What exactly is Encore' hair augmentation? A method of adding hair to thinning areas and replacing hair in areas where there may be no hair at all.

This is truly a great advancement in women's hair augmentation. Because the amount of hair that is supplemented can come in whatever proportion it takes to cosmetically solve your hair loss problem.

This allows for an optimum level of flexibility. Which is exactly what is needed when confronting women's hair loss. Because though women's pattern baldness may sometimes have the same causes as male pattern baldness, therein the similarities end.

Women's pattern baldness is different.
Men’s pattern baldness generally ends up with a "horseshoe" of hair around the sides and back of the head, with the top of the head totally denude of hair.

Not only is the end result fairly common, the path to got there is shared by most men, as we'll. it usually begins with a gradual recession in the temples.

Then the frontal hairline begins to recede. At the same time, the most forward part of the anterior scalp (mid-scalp) begins to lose hair. This creates the typical "island" of hair that exists between the receding frontal hairline and the middle of the scalp. Somewhere along the way, usually when the anterior scalp begins to lose hair, so too does the crown.

The confluence of the many receding areas leads to a contiguous patch of bald scalp, from the front of the forehead to below the crown. But this is hardly the case with women.

In actuality, the term "female pattern baldness" is largely a misnomer, because there is no pattern to female hair loss.

Women's hair loss element pattern, element progressions.
Very few women with hair loss end up with the horseshoe pattern that is the inevitable result of male pattern baldness. Rather, women tend to lose their hair in various combinations of patterns and progressions. Why this is so is largely unknown; it is simply a fact that is verifiable by both anecdotal and clinical evidence.

How can one solution that helps establish a frontal hairline also work for a woman who is suffering diffused hair loss all over the top of her scalp?

Some women notice their hair loss beginning in the anterior, or mid-scalp region, a few inches behind the hairline. In other women, it is the hairline itself that begins to thin, but there is rarely a true recession as there is with men; rather, the thinning seems to occur randomly throughout th6first inch or so of hair without the orderly "march back to the crown" that categorizes most male pattern baldness. As well, very few women experience recession at the temples; most men do.
