Hair Restoration Procedures Increase in Difficult Economy, Especially for Austin Practice
Hair restoration procedures are up 26 percent worldwide and up 35 percent for Austin practice, McGrath Medical.
Austin, TX, September 26, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Despite a downturn economy in 2008, treatments for hair loss increased 26 percent worldwide from 2006 figures, according to a recent survey conducted by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), a non-profit medical association dedicated to the advancement of the art and science of hair restoration. The number of patients treated in 2008 was approximately 811,363. In Austin, McGrath Medical did even better than the world average and experienced a 35 percent increase in hair restoration treatments.
“Advancements in treatments for hair loss and more natural looking results are increasing the demand for hair restoration,” said Daniel McGrath, D.O. of McGrath Medical in Austin, TX. “Many are finding hair restoration gives them a competitive edge in the workplace by giving them a younger appearance, which helps to instill more confidence.”
According to the recent survey, the average age of patients undergoing hair restoration surgery for the first time in 2008 was 38 years old. This statistic shows a gradual decline in age over the years – a trend that people are seeking treatment for hair loss earlier instead of waiting until they are older and hair loss becomes more noticeable.
