Advanced Hair Studio India: Envisaging a world divided by nationalities and united by hair loss

Changing Lifestyle habits have accelerated the phenomenon of losing an essential part of our physical appearance, Yes, The hairs. It is something that concerns people from all strata of the society. Hair loss can have a devastating influence on a person's quality of life, be it men or women. Hair loss is often wrongly considered a less significant psychological and emotional problem. But with the change in corporate outlook and ethos (Presentability gaining importance than other factors). Hair loss is now taken seriously by family and friends or even by a personal doctor. Hair loss can affect people in many ways such as loss of self-esteem, anxiety, and depression, social dysfunction, loss of control, and lack of support. The hair loss phenomenon is not a modern problem. Their history predates to the time of early civilizations such as Greeks, Persians, Sumerians, Cretans, and Assyrians- the elite echelons of society. They tried different methods to hide hair loss in the form of wigs and other types of hairpieces. The earliest attempt at a medicinal procedure to treat hair loss was found in an Egyptian book 'Ebers Papyrus' during 1500 BC. Hippocrates followed the quest to find a viable remedy for hair loss. The first mention of a surgical procedure for curing the hair loss was found in the aphorisms of Hippocrates. The 20th century saw some major historical developments in terms of treating the hair loss. In 1939, a major success in treating hair loss was achieved – that of, hair transplanting. A Japanese dermatologist, Dr. Shoji Okuda discussed the practice of transplanting hair grafts from other parts of the body to replace areas that had been affected by hair loss, but the Japanese defeat in the Second World War subdued the achievement. Today's modern landscape remains similar in some respects. That is, men and women are continuing to suffer from hair loss and balding. It is a fact that approximately 40% of the male population begin to experience hair loss once they reach their early 20's. In order to provide solutions for such problems the Advanced Hair Studio was established in Florida, the United States, in 1970. Today, Advanced Hair Studio helps more than half a million people from all corners of the world with their hair loss problems, providing customized hair regrowth and restoration solutions. By applying non-surgical procedures, Advanced Hair Studio helps patients regain their lives and confidence by taking control over their looks and feeling good once more.
