Pattern baldness, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is one of the most widespread causes of hair loss in both men and women. It often begins with thinning at the temples, hairline, or the crown area, eventually leading to larger bald patches if left untreated. For many people, the most noticeable and concerning area is the crown, where hair loss creates a visible bald spot that affects appearance and self-esteem. One of the most effective solutions available today is a crown hair transplant. Many patients ask if this procedure can truly address pattern baldness—and the answer is yes. Advanced methods, such as Crown Hair Transplant in Dubai, have proven to successfully restore coverage in the crown, even in cases of hereditary hair loss.
Pattern baldness is caused primarily by genetic and hormonal factors. In men, it often starts with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown. In women, the thinning is usually more diffuse but can still affect the crown significantly. Over time, the affected follicles shrink and stop producing healthy hair, leaving bald patches.
Because the crown is highly susceptible to genetic hair loss, it is one of the most common targets for transplant procedures.
Hair follicles are harvested from donor areas—typically the back or sides of the scalp—that are resistant to hormonal hair loss.
The crown’s unique spiral pattern is carefully recreated by implanting follicles at specific angles and directions.
Transplants fill in the thinning or bald crown with healthy follicles, producing natural density and improving coverage.
Since donor follicles are resistant to balding, they continue to grow naturally in the crown for years to come.
