The Norwood Scale of Male Pattern Baldness is a tool used to identify the degree and stage of hair loss. It can be helpful in determining the correct course of treatment for you. When considering how best to treat your hair loss, it is helpful to first identify how far your hair loss has progressed. The following diagram is called the Norwood Scale and is a tool used by physicians to identify the degree and stage of a patient’s hair loss.
Typically a patient is considered a good candidate for hair restoration surgery once he has progressed to a Norwood Class 3 or beyond. As you look over the chart, bear in mind that there are many variations of the patterns shown. The patterns on the charte are considered the most typical.

At FACE Plastic Surgery in Toronto, we perform modern hair restoration at its best. Our goal is to create a look that appears to be completely genuine. We are at the forefront in the latest, groundbreaking techniques in hair restoration. In the past, a strip of scalp was surgically removed from the back of the head, where the hair is not genetically programmed for balding, after which healthy follicles were harvested and implanted, row upon row – a look that was obvious. The patient was left with a horizontal scar at the back of the head, a problem for those who prefer a short haircut.
The latest developments in hair restoration can restore natural hair to balding or thinning areas or recreate a youthful hairline with modern hair transplant technology – no incisions, no stitches, no scarring – just healthy, thicker hair you will enjoy for a lifetime.
