The baldness reaches the nape of the neck, where a thin crown forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>=&gt;&nbsp;<em><strong>A micrograft procedure is probably impossible because the donor area will certainly not be dense enough.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A hair transplant is now the most effective solution to give real, quick and natural results to your hair.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be noted that this procedure can be performed at all stages of baldness. It is moderately effective in the most advanced stages of baldness because when baldness is more pronounced, there are fewer grafts to collect, and the area that can be covered with the grafts is smaller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Baldness develops gradually, and can start at the age of 18. As soon as androgens start to be produced at puberty, a young boy can show signs of baldness. In addition, if a young man is in the early stages of the Hamilton-Norwood scale (with hair starting to recede at the temporal lines, and thinning at the top edges of the crown), it is certainly likely that he will develop severe stage VI or VII baldness at an older age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In any case, the younger a person is, the less advanced the baldness is (it is referred to as incipient baldness) and the larger the donor area will be (between 300 and 350 hairs per cm\u00b2). Also, if the top edges of the crown are not thinning and the frontal and temporal hairlines are not receding, a successful hair transplant can be guaranteed with perfectly natural and aesthetically-pleasing results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the best cases, when slow-developing incipient baldness is diagnosed, we recommend some simple micro hair transplant sessions, spread out over a lifetime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":33450,"menu_order":20,"template":"tpl.treatments-single-sidemenu-child.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"treatment-type":[],"class_list":["post-32381","traitements","type-traitements","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.7 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Hamilton-Norwood scale - LAZEO<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sharp-galois.217-154-146-230.plesk.page\/be-en\/treatments\/micrograft-fue-hair-transplant\/the-hamilton-norwood-scale\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The Hamilton-Norwood scale\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Baldness appears in different forms and gradually develops.
