    Losing your hair at any age can be traumatising for anyone. Our society is prone to judging others based on their appearance – and a young person who is suffering from hair loss can be subjected to a lot of scrutiny. This can lead to a number of self-confidence issues and become a breeding ground for insecurities. It can be very hard to accept the fact that one has suffered permanent hair loss.

    However, it is important to remember that a variety of treatment options are available in the advent of suffering through hair loss. Hair transplants in India are fairly common nowadays and can help anyone combat the issue of androgenetic alopecia. There are a number of reasons why anyone could be losing their hair.

    One of the most pertinent as well as stringent factors that can lead to a lot of emotional turmoil is not knowing exactly why one is experiencing permanent hair loss. It can be quite disturbing for some people to sit through and be unable to identify the reasons behind permanent hair loss. You can try to analyse it, but with the way our world has progressed – climate change and a number of things out of your control can be a leading factor in deciding whether the hair on the head stays or not. Even the water you consume and the lifestyle you lead can lead to permanent hair loss.

    One recent research has found that there is an extensive and extreme link between smoking and losing one’s hair on a permanent basis. Any person who is in the habit of drinking ten or more cigarettes in a single day stands a chance of permanently losing their hair. The chemicals present in cigarettes can end up affecting the opening of blood vessels, which can have a permanent impact on the hair follicles. 

    Further, the substances found in cigarettes can lead to a lot of lasting damage to your cells as well as DNA makeup. This can lead to premature and permanent loss of hair and can also result in extensive ageing of your scalp. It can also impact the way hormones are released in the body – creating an unsuitable environment for the hair strands and follicles to grow and prosper.

    Although hair transplants are common in India, it is imperative to acknowledge that any and all hair follicles on the body can and will be affected by excessive indulgence in smoking. Therefore, if one does not stop smoking, chances are even after the transplant, you could face permanent hair loss regardless of the treatment procedure.
