Background: Alopecia is defined as partial or complete hair loss. The most common form is androgenetic alopecia, which occurs in both men and women. Despite the nonsurgical options available for treatment, the only permanent solution is hair transplantation. Hair loss has been shown to have significant psychological consequences associated with loss of self-confidence, poor self-image and difficulties in social functioning. We aim to examine the effect of hair transplantation on quality of life and psychosocial functioning.
Methods: Forty-eight patients with androgenetic alopecia were enrolled in this two-center prospective study and underwent hair transplantation by the Follicular Unit Extraction method. Different questionnaires were used to assess their quality of life and other psychosocial parameters before and after hair transplantation.
Results: According to SF-36 Physical and Mental Health Score patients showed significant improvement in life quality after hair transplantation. Diener's Life Satisfaction Scale (DASS-21) revealed increased life satisfaction after the procedure. Stress and anxiety DASS-21 subscales showed significantly reduced results; while, the DASS-21 depression scale and MSPSS were not significantly changed.
Conclusion: Taken together, quality of life and psychosocial functioning increased after hair transplantation. Structured abstract is required.
