Dear Dr. Rassman
What do you think of the new (hypothetical) concept about hair loss called “Alopecia contentionalis”, i.e. high scalp tension causing less blood circulation?
Wouldn’t the risk of getting that condition increase by the number of FUT’s (strip extraction)?
whether you are suggesting that a tight scalp that undergoes strip excision will get tighter, I believe [...]

A moment study has been done to experiment the theory that smoking accelerates hair loss and graying. The results were the same as the 740-man study conducted in Taiwan final year—smoking DOES speed up the hair loss process.
The recent study included 600 subjects, both men and women. Half of the group were smokers. After conducting tests, the results showed a “significant” and “consistent” link amidst smoking and graying at an early age. The only question that remains is why? Researchers believe the toxins in cigarettes may directly affect the scalp.
