Partial Hair Replacement Systems
Partial hair replacement systems are designed specifically to cover a small balding area. This would commonly be used by someone who started to notice balding in either the temples or the crown of the head. The partial hair replacement can be designed using both fine welded mono as well as injected skin base. This hair system may be bonded as well as taped on depending on preference. As your balding area gets larger your partial is going to bet bigger as well, until you no longer need it and can switch over to a full front lace or injected skin system. Partial hair replacement systems can be created in any shape any size to fit your specific needs, this also makes it a great option for individuals looking to cover a specific area due to an accident or an illness such as Alopecia Areata.

Hair Loss Key Words
Here’s a few terms and meanings that you may come across while researching hair loss options. A great aid for navigating through the world of hair replacements.
Hair Replacement
A general term for any procedure in which encroaching baldness is non-surgical or surgically reversed by grafting, tightening, or flap rotations, using standard grafts, minigrafts, and micrografts, scalp flaps, scalplifting procedures, scalp reduction, and tissue expanders
Male Pattern Baldness
A progressive, diffuse loss of scalp hair in men that begins in the twenties or early thirties, depends on the presence of the androgenic hormone testosterone, and is caused by a combination of genetic and hormonal factors. Also called alopecia hereditaria, androgenetic alopecia, male pattern alopecia, patterned alopecia.
Alopecia simply means hair loss (baldness).
Alopecia areata
is a condition that causes round patches of hair loss, and can lead to total hair loss.
Alopecia totalis is the loss of all head hair.
Alopecia universalis
is a medical condition involving rapid loss of all hair of the head and the body.
Bald/ Balding

Hair transplantation
is a surgical procedure used to treat baldness or hair loss. Typically, tiny patches of scalp are removed from the back and sides of the head and implanted in the bald spots in the front and top of the head.
Hair graft
a thin strip of hair-bearing scalp is removed, separated into pieces of 1 to 5 hair follicles, and then implanted into hairless areas.
