Product Description
Product Description
This book is the most comprehensive and authoritative lay person's guide to hair loss treatments on the market today. It is written by a board-certified dermatologist and internationally recognized expert with thirty-five years experience and thousands of successful surgeries to his credit. It covers all the most common modern techniques in clear, non-technical language, and uses many drawings and photographs to illustrate hair loss conditions and surgical techniques. It looks at the many myths and misunderstandings around hair loss, and shows which treatments work best for different types of hair loss. It is applicable to men suffering from male pattern baldness, but it also covers hair loss conditions common to women. It contains many real-life photos and stories of actual patients, some in their own words, and debunks the many bogus treatments that have flooded the market recently. It gives readers the scientific background knowledge they require to intelligently select the right medication or surgeon, and also explains hair cloning and other medical advances that may be just over the horizon of current treatment.

The incomplete book of hair loss answers., Aug 28 2007
By Valarie c - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Complete Book of Hair Loss Answers: Your Comprehensive Guide to the Latest and Best Techniques (Paperback)
If you are looking for history on what people have done since 44BC until now, and if you only wish to go the route of surgical proceduresthis book will interest you.
Natural hair solutions were skimmed over so quickly I had to go back to see if I had missed something. So, if you are interested in alternative options such as diet, disease control, save a tree and don't buy this book.
The Internet is a good source too after you wade through the crap that is out there. See other hair loss books through Amazon.

The Best Book By Far on the Subject, July 5 2006
By Dawson Church, PhD, Author "The Genie In Your... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Complete Book of Hair Loss Answers: Your Comprehensive Guide to the Latest and Best Techniques (Paperback)
I edited this book, in the process of which I read several other books on hair loss. As a reader, you will find that this edition beats any other title on the market hands down. The information is clearly organized, the book is up-to-date with discussions of leading-edge therapies like hair cloning and stem cell therapy, and the Q&A section answers all the questions you've always wanted to ask. Lavishly illustrated with line drawings and photographs, this book is for women as well as men considering the best treatment options for hair loss.
