An epidemic of baldness has hit Russian teenagers. Schoolchildren aged 15–16 years old come to trichologists with second or third degree alopecia. Children are left without hair due to poor lifestyle and stress.
Trichologists told Mash that over the past year the number of schoolchildren who applied has quadrupled. And most of them either have bald patches on their foreheads or have a gradually growing “lake in the forest.” The probable reasons are widespread deterioration in health among adolescents. Poor blood vessels and posture, an eating disorder (energy drinks and ashkushki instead of breakfast), autoimmune gastritis and metabolic disorders, and on top – the consequences of corona. Plus regular stress and neuroses.
The average bill for a transplant procedure is from 160 to 190 thousand rubles. Depending on which particular area needs to be planted with hair.
Experts also say that demand has increased, including due to men who have become more attentive to their appearance and do not want to rub their bald spot by the age of 30. Therefore, we are ready to pay. Over the past three months, the price of follicle transplantation has already increased by 20–30 thousand and continues to grow. In the future, up to 230–250 thousand by the end of 2025.
