In this first episode of the Chicago Hair Clinic Podcast, Dr. Joffrey gives some introductory comments about what to expect from this podcast and the reason for it's inception. After that, the question "why do only some men go bald" is addressed. Dr. Joffrey discusses male pattern baldness and its physiology, specifically the role of dihydrotestosterone otherwise known as DHT. A basic understanding of DHT pattern in hair loss is used to explain, in very simple terms, the concepts behind successful hair restoration and hair transplant surgery.
