The following types of hair loss can be treated by hair transplantation.
- Hereditary hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).
- Hair loss due to radiation damage, e.g., after tumor irradiation – the prerequisite is that the radiation therapy has ended.
- Circular hair loss (alopecia areata) – Prerequisite is that after one year of conventional therapy no successes have occurred.
- Hair loss due to accidents or surgical scars
- “Congenital” receding hairline or high forehead (high hairline).
