What is male pattern baldness?
Male pattern baldness is the common name for androgenetic alopecia. It is genetic. Together with female pattern hair loss, it affects roughly half of all adults at some point after puberty.
Follicles at the top of the head become sensitive to androgen hormones. Over time they shrink. This is called miniaturisation. The hair grows finer and shorter. Some follicles stop producing hair.
Signs of male pattern baldness
- A receding hairline at the front or temples
- Thinning at the crown
- Hair that grows finer and shorter than before
- A pattern that keeps the back and sides of the head fuller

Why young men should act early
If you are 25 and your crown is thinning while your hairline is still intact, the loss is likely still active. Without treatment such as PRP or medication, your own hair keeps falling out.
This matters for transplants too. If the loss is not controlled first, new hair can end up surrounded by thinning hair.
How we treat male pattern baldness
- PRP or GFC, using growth factors from your own blood
- Topical therapy such as Minoxidil
- DHT blockers, where suitable
- FUE hair transplant for suitable candidates
At Hairhub we often combine PRP with Minoxidil and DHT blockers. Your plan depends on your assessment, your age and how fast the loss is moving.
When a hair transplant makes sense
A transplant suits people whose loss is stable and the donor area at the back of the head is strong. Most people have 4,000 to 5,000 grafts in a lifetime. We place them where they matter most, usually the front. We also keep some in reserve for later.

Frequently asked questions
Can male pattern baldness be reversed?
It is genetic, so it is managed over time rather than removed. Treatment can slow it and help keep the hair you have.
Is a receding hairline always male pattern baldness?
Not always. Tight styles can also pull the hairline back. A trichologist can tell the difference.
How early should I start treatment?
As soon as you notice thinning. The earlier you start, the more hair you keep.

Would recommend them any day. They are such a friendly community, very warm and kind when it comes to their service delivery and do not get me started on the results! They do deliver on what they say and I am absolutely grateful for their support in growing my hair back to what it is today! They did make my dream come true, and finally I can get to embrace who I am fully when I look at myself in the mirror. Thank you so much Hair Hub!
I thank God that after 2 gruesome years of scalp psoriasis, I have finally found a solution that works like magic. This was only possible with the services I got from Hair Hub at Bemuda Plaza, after years of spending so much money on other hair products on the market, all in vain. The first consultation I had was with Celestine Gitau and 3 weeks later I can say without a doubt that I no longer have any flaking or itching of the scalp and the inflammation has since reduced drastically.
Customer service before the procedure was smooth and engaging. The experts handled everything very professionally. 10/10 would recommend.
Their Jet Peel PRP technology is on another level. My hair is gradually coming back. I am happy.
