Cellular Hair Activation

only @ nigams
There are certain cells within the hair follicle. which can be isolated and infused into the villous(dying) hair follicles to potentially, convert them to terminal anagen follicles. The solution to male /female pattern baldness is at the level cell,intracellular protiens,dormant bulge/dermal stemcells and their communication within themselves,


Treating Root cause of AGA @ cellular Level


Hairline Design

The hairline above the forehead is perhaps the most characteristic element in the human face, comparable to characteristic eyes or the prominent position of the nose. It is therefore no wonder that a receding hairline can negatively influence someone's appearance quite dramatically. This is as spectacular is the re-making, the creation of a new natural hairline.

It is a delicate matter, for only a perfect result is acceptable. The hairline must look completely natural; any deviation is unacceptable. There is no such thing as 'almost natural' or 'a little bit unnatural'; in these cases they actually equal unnatural and thus unsatisfactory.

Indeed, small details lead directly to a hairline that looks unnatural.
For example, the use of only a few double hair transplants (the combination of two roots) can clearly create a doll's hair-like effect.
Even when only visible in a few spots, the wrong distances between hair that has been implanted, whether too regular, or too far apart, can have a disastrous effect.

There are two ways in which an unnatural looking hairline may constitute a personal disaster:

- On the one hand the prominent place the hairline plays in an individual's face as already discussed above, makes an unnatural looking hairline very noticeable and therefore nearly impossible to hide. In view of the fact that it is an ongoing situation, in some cases the resulting mental stress is worse than the initial suffering due to baldness

- On the other hand, correction of an unnatural hairline is difficult and time consuming, and in many cases requires more than one treatment session

The natural results of a transplanted hairline therefore takes the highest priority. It requires a great deal of aptitude, many years of experience and last but not least, artistic talents and a well developed sense of aesthetics on the part of the doctor in question.

Special upkeep for special hair... By Dr Nigam GoodHealth Pvt Ltd.

Unique in appearance and structure, African-American hair is especially fragile and prone to injury and damage. More than half of African-American women will cite thinning hair or hair loss as their top hair concern. Fortunately, there are a lot of things African-Americans can do to help minimize damage and keep their hair beautiful.

“A lot of what we do to our hair can actually damage hair,” said board-certified
dermatologist, “Over the years, this damage can build up, leading to
unhealthy and unattractive hair. To prevent this, it’s important to develop healthy
hair habits and stick to them.”

To help African-Americans keep their hair healthy, Experts recommends the
following tips:

1. Wash hair once a week or every other week: This will help prevent build-up of
hair care products, which can be drying to the hair.

2. Use conditioner: Use conditioner every time you wash your hair. Be sure to coat
the ends of the hair with conditioner, as the ends are the oldest and most fragile
part of your hair.

3. Use a hot oil treatment twice a month: This adds additional moisture and
Elasticity to your hair.

4. Use a heat protecting product before styling: Adding this to wet hair before
styling will help minimize heat damage.

5. Use caution with relaxers: To minimize hair damage, always go to a professional
hair stylist to ensure that the relaxer is applied safely. Touch-ups should only be
done every two to three months and only to newly grown hair. Never apply relaxer to
hair that has already been relaxed.

6. Use ceramic combs or irons to press hair: If you would like to press or
thermally straighten your hair, use a ceramic comb or iron and only do so once a
week. Use a straightening device with a dial to ensure the device is not too hot.
Use the lowest possible temperature setting that gives you the style you want. A
higher temperature may be necessary for thicker, coarser hair.

7. Make sure braids, cornrows or weaves are not too tight: If it hurts while your
hair is being styled, ask the stylist to stop and redo it. Pain equals damage.

“See a board-certified dermatologist if you notice any changes in the texture or
appearance of your hair,” “Even the slightest bit of noticeable thinning can be the
start of hair loss. The earlier hair loss is diagnosed, the more effectively it can

be treated.”

Progenitor Hair Bulge stemcells to regenerate dormant hair follicle

Stem Cell Hair – Lets work together to find cure for androgenic alopecia/male/female pattern baldness.

Steam Cell Hair


  I am a Bio technologist at Dr Nigam’s Goodhealth Pvt Ltd, Hair Transplant Center Mumbai India. Recent research has shown that , the defect in hair buge stem-cells, to convert to active ,progenitor stem-cells, could be one of the main reason for androgenetic alopecia.In our lab , like few other researchers, we are able to isolate and activate the bulge hair stem cells, specifically cd200, epithelial stemcells. Only problem is they culture slowly, and for a successful potential future therapy, a large number of cd200 cells will be required, in minimum time and in large scale. We are using pvr tubes for the same, but would need other techniques to do the same, well working on it. Why these cd200 epithelial stemcells at the hair bulge of an alopecia patient become inactive or dormant is not known yet, few theories suggest, sympathetic stimulation which is connected to stress, as these cells are innervated with sympathetic nerves. It is these cd200 stem-cells in the hair bulge, which further communicates with trhe signals from dermal papilla sheath and matrix cells to form hair shaft and or activate hair follicle from telogen top anagen. Role of CD200,Progenitor Hair Bulge stem-cells to regenerate dormant hair follicle…..

                         Anyone .who can throw more light on isolating and culturing hair follicle bulge cd200 epithelial stem-cells, may give his experience or link of relevant scientific paper. Also you can write about , what do you think about the role of these cells, for potential future hair activation and or regeneration.

Hair loss: Tips for managing –By Dr Nigam Goodhealth Pvt Ltd.

Dermatologists often offer their patients who have hair loss the following tips.

1. Practice good hair care. Many people are surprised to learn that a hairstyle or even the way they wash and dry their hair has contributed to their hair loss. By following tips that dermatologist gives their patients, you can learn How to stop damaging your hair.

2. Do not stop taking a medicine that your doctor prescribed. Some medicines can cause hair loss. Doctors warn that you should not stop taking a medicine that your doctor prescribed if you see hair loss. Immediately stopping some medicines can cause serious side effects.

If you think a medicine may be causing hair loss, talk with the doctor who prescribed the medicine. Ask if the medicine could be causing your hair loss. If the medicine seems to be the cause, ask your doctor whether you can take another medicine.

3. Realize that your hair loss may be temporary. Some things in life cause temporary hair loss. These include illness, childbirth, and stress.
During a very stressful time, your body may react by causing more hairs than normal to go into resting phase. The medical term for this condition is telogen (tee-lÉ™-jen) effluvium (ih-flu-vee-uhm). During telogen effluvium, the body sheds a dramatic amount of hair. For most people, the hair will start to grow again without any help.

Treatment for hair loss helps many people feel better. Hair loss, especially in women, can cause low self-esteem. Many women feel unattractive and embarrassed. A dermatologist can offer solutions to help you feel and look your best.

Before FUE Hair Transplant Surgery- By Dr Nigam Goodhealth Pvt Ltd.

There are some minor preparations before your Follicular Unit Extraction procedure at clinic. The following instructions are organized according to the days and weeks before your procedure.
                        
TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO YOUR PROCEDURE
When you enroll with us, please call our office, to confirm your appointment and verify that we have received your laboratory test results. If you are taking any blood thinners, please let the doctor know immediately, as they may represent a contra-indication to surgery. These medications include Plavix, Coumadin, and Heparin. If you are taking broad beta-blockers, such as Inderal (Propranolol), please contact doctor as this medication may need to be changed to a select beta-blocker in advance of the surgery. With larger sessions of FUE, the entire back and sides of the scalp will be shaved to 2 mm in length the morning of surgery. For those having a smaller session, the doctor may shave a long strip that can be covered by the hair above it. If the doctor has indicated that he may be shaving a limited area, please leave your hair as long as possible on the back and on the sides, to cover the harvested area after your procedure. If there is any question regarding length, it is better to leave your hair on the long side as we can trim it to the appropriate length the morning of surgery.
THREE DAYS PRIOR TO YOUR PROCEDURE
Do not drink any alcoholic beverages for at least three days prior to your procedure.

THE DAY OF YOUR PROCEDURE
Shower the morning of your procedure and wash your hair very thoroughly using your regular shampoo. Do not apply sprays, gels, or any other styling products to your hair. If you wear a hair system, please remove it prior to shampooing and do not wear it before your procedure. Wear loose, comfortable clothing which does not need to be pulled on over your head. This will prevent dislodging your bandage or damaging your grafts immediately after surgery. Please do not wear any cologne or perfume the day of your procedure.
Eat breakfast the morning of your procedure. We will provide lunch. If your surgery is scheduled for the afternoon, have a light lunch before you arrive.  Do not drink coffee or any caffeinated beverages on the day of your procedure. These substances may increase bleeding and your sensitivity to medications used during the procedure.
