Hair transplantation is a surgical technique that moves hair follicles from a part of the body called the ‘donor site’ to a bald part of the body known as the ‘recipient site’. It is primarily used to treat male pattern baldness. In this minimally invasive procedure, grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding, (like the back of the head) are transplanted to the bald scalp. Hair transplantation can also be used to restore eyelashes, eyebrows, beard hair.

Hair transplantation differs from skin grafting in that grafts contain almost all of the epidermis and dermis surrounding the hair follicle, and many tiny grafts are transplanted rather than a single strip of skin.

Since hair naturally grows in groupings of 1 to 4 hairs, current techniques harvest and transplant hair “follicular units” in their natural groupings. Thus modern hair transplantation can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking original hair orientation. This hair transplant procedure is called follicular unit transplantation (FUT). Donor hair can be harvested in two different ways: strip harvesting, and follicular unit extraction (FUE)

The most popular hair transplant methods are: Follicular Unit Hair Transplants (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction ( FUE) . Both methods involve follicular transplant, meaning follicles are extracted from donor area and transplanted in the recipient area; but the way follicles are extracted and transplanted is different in each case. Hair follicles are taken from patients themselves, mostly from the backside of the scalp.

In FUE, individual follicles are extracted from the donor area and transplanted to the recipient area one by one; whereas in FUT, also known as strip method, a strip of hair follicles is taken out from the donor area and transplanted on the area with baldness. 

Either procedure ( strip harvesting or follicular unit grafting) is carried out under local anesthetic, and for male pattern baldness, an average of 2500-3000 hair follicles are re-established in the recipient area per session. Depending on which procedure you opt for, the healing time varies between 1-2 weeks.

Hairs will start growing seven days onwards, however there might be a shed off phase which may lasts around 3 months. A standard result can be expected by 6 month from the date of surgery. Although, for complete result it may take 10-12 months.

Hair fall is a problem with people from all age group now days. As young as 21 years man can experience hair fall.

Hair fall can be due to many reasons like ‘natural, genetic, hereditary, male pattern baldness, diet, lifestyle, pollution, and many more’.

Hair replacement is getting popular with every passing day. The reason being ‘male pattern baldness and female pattern baldness’ is leading to many people suffer from social embarrassment.

Often the hairs either experience ‘thinning, bald patch at the crown, receding hairline, and split ends’. Both male and female are equally suffering from it.

Hair replacement system is a simple process. It’s not complex, but meeting the need of people. Since 1900’s it’s getting popular and in demand for concealing hair loss.

The hair replacement is a patch developed by the method of ‘human or synthetic hair woven onto a lace, monofilament, or ultra-thin skin’.

Later, during non surgical hair replacement procedure, this patch is attached to human head with ‘tape, skin friendly adhesive, or weaving’.

Herniated Disc:

The discs are structures that sit between each pair of vertebrae providing flexibility and cushioning. The disc is made up of two layers, the outer Annulus Fibrosus and the inner Nucleus Pulposa. When the outer layer is damaged of strained, it can allow the inner, gel like pulposa to extrude and put pressure on nerves that lie in the same area. That pressure causes pain, numbness and tingling in the legs or back.

Most herniated discs will heal with minimal treatment. It is estimated that more than half of the people who have a herniated disc aren’t even aware of it. Conservative options include physical therapy, Analgesics and Anti inflammatory, Epidural injections of pain killers and steroids given orally or by injections.

Fractures can occur when the back is subjected to blunt force trauma for example in a car accident or fall. They can also be the result of Degenerative bone disease in the spine. A frequent cause is osteoporosis, a condition where the bone loss mass and density making them particularly fragile. If the cause of the fracture is osteoporosis, then calcium supplements and other medications that help to control the deterioration of the bone are prescribed, for trauma related injuries hospitalization and painfull procedure is considered.

Diabetes treatment at Rejuvenate Health :

Rapid changes in the eating habits, increased availability of high calorie food, sedentary lifestyle and increased consumption of fast foods are considered to be the main reasons for raise in incidence of Diabetes. India is becoming the diabetic capital of the world, consumption of high carbohydrates and staple food being wheat or rice is predisposing Indians to diabetes. Obesity is one of the major risk factors of Diabetes and women suffering from PCOS are also at an increased risk of developing this condition. Controlling Diabetes problems is very important as untreated or uncontrolled diabetes can lead to complications which are lethal or will affect your quality of life.Diabetes is a systemic disease and in long term will cause many complications and also lead to other dangerous diseases.

What is Diabetes?

Diabetes Mellitus(DM) means high level of sugars in due to failed glucose metabolism. All the cells in human body for energy require Glucose and requires Insulin hormone for glucose utilization. Insulin hormone is produced by beta cells situated in the endocrine part of the pancreas. Any disorder in this metabolic process or disease of the pancreas will lead to Diabetes disorders.

As Diabetes is on a raise, knowing the causes of Diabetes is important. A single cause is not responsible for Diabetes but multiple factors act together and trigger the mechanisms responsible for Diabetes. As there are numerous causes of Diabetes, they are divided into modifiable and non-modifiable factors.

Modifiable factors are all those factors which can be modified and their by reducing the risk of disease. Many refer to them as avoidable risk factors and are :

• Obesity
• Physical Inactivity
• Smoking
• High lipid profile
• Hypertension

Non modifiable factors are those factors which cannot be modified. They help us to identify risk of individual to develop Diabetes, they are factors like:

• Age above 65yrs
• Family history of Diabetes, a person with family history of diabetes is at more risk of developing Diabetes
• American Indians and Asians have high incidence of diabetes

The above mentioned various causes and risk factors alone or together trigger the mechanisms that lead to diabetes. Two major mechanisms are:

• Reduced insulin secretion by the pancreas
• Generally insulin helps body cells to utilize the glucose, but when ever cell resists the action of insulin it is called as Insulin Resistance, it is commonly seen in obese individuals and it leads to Diabetes.

The symptoms of Diabetes are:

• Increased frequency of urination(polyuria)
• Increased thirst (polydipsia)
• Increased hunger (polyphagia)
• Abnormal  weight loss

The types of diabetes are :

• Diabetes type 1 : It is commonly seen in children and young adults. Is also called as Juvenile Diabetes. The cells which secrete insulin are located in the pancreas, if this cells stop sufficient production of insulin this leads to type 1 diabetes. Many mutation in genes have been identified as a cause of type 1 Diabetes. Only 5 % of all the diabetic cases are type 1.
• Diabetes type 2 : It is a major type of diabetes. Elderly people above 45 – 50 yrs age are more prone to this type of Diabetes. The most common underlying mechanism of type 2 Diabetes is insulin resistance and obesity. Initially in type 2 diabetes sufficient quantities of insulin is secreted but the cells doesn’t respond to the insulin and as the time progress the pancreas slowly starts to fail and will not be able to produce sufficient quantities of insulin and may require insulin supplementation.
• Gestational Diabetes: Around 5 to 10 percent of pregnant women develop glucose intolerance and high sugars levels, if this continues even after the 6th month of conceive they are diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes – is a minor type of Diabetes. Generally this type of Diabetes will become normal after the baby is delivered and does not require any treatment.

Complications of Diabetes Mellitus : If diabetes is under control and regular medication along with good exercise and proper diet, diabetes can be avoided and will not be lethal. If sugar levels are not under control and remain elevated for a long time them diabetes effects almost all the organs of the body leading to dangerous complications such as:

• Diabetic Nephropathy
• Diabetic Neuropathy
• Diabetic Retinopathy
• Diabetic Ketoacidosis
• Diabetic Foot
• Coronary artery disease

Tips for Diabetes Management :

• Do Moderate physical activity for at-least 30 min a day.

Thyroid Disease : One of the fastest growing disorders in modern times is the malfunction of the Thyroid. The statistics show that the Thyroid condition is the most under-diagnosed health problem. There are millions of people suffering from Thyroid problems, but only a few out of those are diagnosed and treated, see positive results using Thyroid medications. Often the Thyroid levels appear normal with lab, yet individuals struggle with few symptoms of Thyroid like weight gain, hair loss, irregular periods, high cholesterol levels and so on.

The Thyroid is one of several glands in the endocrine system, located in the front of the neck. The glands of the endocrine system control many of the body’s functions through chemical substances called hormones. The hormones produced by the Thyroid gland regulate how the body cells use energy and how fast the body’s metabolism work. Thyroid disorder is one of the major risk factors of infertility and hence controlling it is very important.

Symptoms :

• Fatigue
• Increased sensitivity to cold
• Constipation
• Dry skin
• Weight gain
• Puffy face
• Hoarseness
• Muscle weakness
• Elevated blood cholesterol level
• Muscle aches, tenderness and stiffness
• Pain, stiffness or swelling in your joints
• Heavier than normal or irregular menstrual periods
• Thinning hair
• Slowed heart rate
• Depression
• Impaired memory
• Enlarged thyroid gland (goiter)

Diagnosis

In general, your doctor may test for an underactive thyroid if you are feeling increasingly tired, have dry skin, constipation and weight gain, or have had previous thyroid problems or a goiter.

Blood tests  : Diagnosis of thyroidism is based on your symptoms and the results of blood tests that measure the level of TSH and sometimes the level of the thyroid hormone thyroxine. A low level of thyroxine and high level of TSH indicate an underactive thyroid. That’s because your pituitary produces more TSH in an effort to stimulate your thyroid gland into producing more thyroid hormone.

Doctors can diagnose thyroid disorders much earlier than in the past — often before you experience symptoms. Because the TSH test is the best screening test, your doctor will likely check TSH first and follow with a thyroid hormone test if needed.

TSH tests also play an important role in managing thyroidism. They help your doctor determine the right dosage of medication, both initially and over time.

Treatment for Thyroid:

Conventional treatment for Thyroid disease involves a lifelong medication or painful process. Although there are many alternative treatments, among all those treatments Thyroid treatment in Homeopathy is a good way to opt because it will have no side effects and also a painless procedure to control and get relief. While in homeopathy, we propose to treat the problem not by supplementing the deficiencies or surplus, but by reactivation of efficient Thyroid glandular function. Our immune system is also under constant attack from toxins within air, water and food supply.

These pollutants, over-stimulate our immune system, create autoimmune reactions and damage Thyroid function. In Homeopathy we provide constitutional treatment which focuses on improving the function of the Thyroid gland by natural means. The constitutional remedies will stimulate the body to reactivate Thyroid secretions. In our Thyroid treatment we will help to boost energy, improve circulation and thereby help balancing hypo as well as hypothyroid functions. It may be also used as a supportive help for regulating both hypo and hyper thyroid functions.
