By Brandie Umar - Executive Director of Content | June 21st, 2010

Hair loss is a common problem that affects both men and women. As hair loss accelerates people often find they loose confidence and try to find a solution. Hair transplantation offers patients the best results for a long-term solution to permanent hair loss.

The Alba Reyes Sagiv Hair Transplant Institute in the Dominican Republic specialises in hair restoration for patients suffering extreme and premature hair loss. As treatments for hair loss have developed, so has the service Alba Reyes offers to patients. Alongside hair transplantation procedures, Alba Reyes offers patients a unique DNA test which analyses gentic patterns to determine the cause of the hair loss. Identifying genetic traits that are causing hair loss can help prevent further future hair loss in hair transplant patients.

DNA testing can identify patients who would be good candidates for Finasteride - one of the most commonly prescribed medications to prevent hair loss. Blocking dihydrotestosterone (DHT) - the hormone which causes alopecia related hair loss - Finasteride stops further hair loss in 85% of patients. Not only do the majority of patients see no further hair loss after treament, 66% of patients regrow hair after treatment.

Alba Reyes Sagiv Hair Transplant Institute is offering patients a free DNA test, worth $250 USD with all hair transplant procedures confirmed before August 31st. For more information and to make an appointment for your free DNA test for hair loss, contact Alba Reyes directly.
