What is the difference between male and female hair loss?
Diet, hormones, pollution, genetics and stress can all contribute towards hair loss. However some factors are more common in different genders, such as hormonal imbalances being more common in women and pattern baldness which is far more common amongst men.
Is the CRL system a wig?
No. Unlike a wig, the CRL system is molded to precisely mirror your scalp, hairline and original direction of hair growth. Once in place a client can return to a fully active life including swimming, wearing a helmet and doing high impact sports, as well as being able to use full styling treatments.
Is the CRL system a transplant?
No, the method is non-invasive and non-surgical. There is no risk of incompatibility or rejection.
Can the system leave permanent marks or scars?
There is absolutely no risk of scars or tissue damage. The system has been dermatologically-tested in conjunction with leading universities and all clients undergo a patch test before treatment commences.
Will the CRL system damage hair regrowth?
No, the system will not affect hair regrowth.
How long does the CRL system last?
In theory, as all goods that are subject to wear and tear, it could last forever. But in practice hair is subject to breaking because of traction and/or tearing, therefore it’s difficult to say for sure how long it might last. It also depends on care and servicing. In any case it can be replaced at any time.
Can I change the colour or cut?
Absolutely. The CRL system is practical and very functional: you can change your hairstyle and use styling products such as gel, hairspray, mousse.
How can I care for my CRL system?
Periodically, based on your characteristics, you must go to a Cesare Ragazzi Laboratories Center for proper maintenance, which includes cleaning of the prosthesis and hair styling to improve your look. Otherwise, it is also possible to carry out this simple operation in your own home, by following a dedicated guide that explains each step of the operation.
