Traction Alopecia

Description

Traction alopecia, sometimes called “hairline recession” or “edges loss,” is a form of hair loss caused by repeated tension from tight hairstyles such as braids, ponytails, buns, or extensions that pull on the hairline. Over time, this pulling weakens hair roots, resulting in thinning, receding, and even bald patches along the frontal scalp, particularly at the temples. Early symptoms include tenderness, broken hairs, and irritation where the hair is under most strain. If the stress is stopped soon enough, hair can often regrow fully, but if left untreated, permanent scarring and irreversible hair loss may occur. Treatment options for traction alopecia range from simply changing hairstyles to advanced solutions like hair transplants (FUE, FUT) or innovative stem cell therapy. South Korea is recognized for its expertise and affordable pricing in traction alopecia treatments, attracting medical tourists seeking natural, restored hairlines with minimal downtime.
