Both men and women dread hair loss. Of course, there are various reasons for hair loss, some of which like heredity might be out of your control. One of the reasons for triggering hair loss is smoking cigarettes. Smoking can give you an instant feeling of pleasure, but it also releases a lot of toxic chemicals in your body. These chemicals can affect your body in various ways, and hair loss is one of them.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-727\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/smoking-causes-hair-loss.jpg\" alt=\"relation between smoking and hair loss\" width=\"454\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/smoking-causes-hair-loss.jpg 454w, https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/smoking-causes-hair-loss-272x300.jpg 272w, https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/smoking-causes-hair-loss-200x220.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 454px) 100vw, 454px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Effects of smoking Vis-a-vis your hair<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Regular smoking reduces the dilute of blood vessels in the body.\u00a0Consequently, it disturbs the flow of blood and reduces the supply of nutrients to the hair. Hence, your hair follicles receive less blood than they should otherwise get. It leads to hair thinning and subsequently hair loss.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Smoking increases the proportion of Dihydrotestosterone also known as DHT. DHT causes the miniaturisation of hair follicles thereby resulting in its shrinking.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Nicotine is also responsible for other scalp issues like dandruff and dermatitis. It can lead to thinning of your hair, and subsequently hair loss.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 One of the ill effects of smoking is premature ageing. The formation of wrinkles and sagging of the skin can also result in substantial hair loss.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Smoking depletes the amount of Vitamins A and C in the body. Both these vitamins play a crucial role in maintaining your overall health. The depletion of Vitamin A causes premature ageing whereas the reduction of Vitamin C affects the production of collagen. Both of these aspects are responsible for hair loss.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hair loss \u2013 Is it permanent or temporary?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Many people have this doubt. Your hair loss depends on the location of the hair thinning. Smoking can cause both the temporary \u201cTelogen Effluvium\u201d hair loss and the \u201cMale and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/female-pattern-baldness.html\">Female Pattern Baldness<\/a>\u201d permanent hair loss.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Would quitting smoking help treat hair loss?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Telogen Effluvium causes the hair to fall all over the scalp. It is a temporary issue that usually clears up if you quit smoking. Changing your lifestyle preferences such as rectifying dietary imbalances, reducing stress, and curing illnesses can also hasten the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/hair-loss-treatment-in-delhi.html\">hair loss treatment<\/a> process.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dermaclinix.in\/hair-transplant-in-delhi.html\">Hair\u00a0transplant<\/a> can help to cure male and female pattern baldness. <strong>DermaClinix<\/strong> is the right location for you to approach for a cure to this permanent hair loss due to smoking.
