Over 80 million American men and women suffer from hair loss problems. And around 50 million out of those 80 million are men. Even children suffer from hair loss problems.

While in some, the hair loss problem is not acute, in others, this problem is very acute. Heavy hair loss leads to alopecia. And increasing alopecia gradually leads to baldness. People at very young age suffer from hair loss and alopecia. Premature baldness is also becoming more common. Even teenagers and children are found to suffer from extensive hair loss problems.
