Hair Replacement Can Help San Francisco Residents Improve Their Game
Golf ranks among the most popular outdoor hobbies in America. Golfers from age six and up visit traditional courses and off-course simulators. The National Golf Foundation reports over one-third of Americans play golf.
The NGF also ranked the “Golfiest States,” bringing California to #2 (Florida beat us at #1). The Bay Area is a beautiful place to get out on the course! The weather and exercise are good for our health and our souls. When the guys get together, they might feel confident about their game. A handicap in the 80s is impressive, but there’s always room for improvement. And a weekend at the course might include plenty of food and drink. It’s the time for your buddies to keep passing the beers and see if you’ll slip when it’s your turn to shoot that ball. Most golfers treat it like a tradition to fool around and make fun of each other while on the course.
What’s tough is when someone in the group isn’t feeling so confident about their thinning hair. When they remove their golf hat on a hot day, a buddy might make a silly comment about the new ‘sand trap’ on the head. Hiding a new bald spot by wearing a hat all the time can create a strange tan line, too.
Temporary hair options are subpar
Normally, a man’s hair doesn’t suddenly fall out all at once. It can begin with a small open spot at the crown widening over time. At some point, the thinning becomes noticeable, and the man must choose: go bald or seek a hair replacement option.
There are several temporary choices for addressing hair loss. Some men can fill in a receding hairline with an over-the-counter spray to cover it. Unfortunately, that option may only work in dim lighting and with minimal thinning. Hair restoration shampoos and creams are another option, but people may see only a slight change over time. Another choice is investing in a toupee, which can be secured with adhesive. This option requires constant grooming and multiple visits to a wig expert. In addition, heat gets trapped under the wig during outdoor exercise, which isn’t comfortable.
San Francisco Bay Area men expect better. They want a permanent option which acts and feels like their real hair. FUE/FUT robotic hair transplant surgery is that choice. The ARTAS robot extracts a man’s own hair follicles from around his scalp and transplants them back into the affected area. Over time, their own hair can grow back for a low-maintenance, natural appearance.
Modern hair replacement surgery is incredible, but like dedication to improving a golf game, it takes time. Take a peek at our clinic’s ‘before and after’ page to review our own patients’ results.
