Norwood Scale Hair Loss India
At Alloroots, Dr. Alok Kumar Sahoo (MD Dermatology, AIIMS New Delhi) uses the Norwood Scale to classify male pattern baldness and plan treatments. Patients can book in-clinic or online consultations for male hair loss treatment or hair transplant procedures suited to their stage. Patient images are shared only with consent.
Norwood Scale stages and relevance in India
The Norwood Scale has seven stages of male pattern hair loss. It helps determine when preventive care may work and when surgical restoration is likely needed.
- Stage 1: Hairline intact, monitoring advised.
- Stage 2: Slight temple recession, early interventions possible.
- Stage 3: Noticeable recession, hair transplant may be considered.
- Stage 4: Thinning at crown and front, combination treatments often planned.
- Stage 5: Broad bald areas, FUE transplant strategy important.
- Stage 6: Extensive loss, restoration may need multiple sessions.
- Stage 7: Very limited hair, SMP or advanced transplant options discussed.
Treatment options matched to stage
Early stages often respond to PRP, i-PRF, GFC, LLLT, Dermapen, Exosome Therapy, SVF, or Autologous Cellular Micrografts. These can be standalone or support surgical outcomes.
From stage 3 onward, advanced FUE hair transplants are common. For scarring, scar hair restoration integrates grafts into scar tissue. In later stages, scalp micropigmentation can create a density illusion without surgery. Female hair loss follows different patterns but also benefits from staging, as covered in female hair loss treatment.
Steps before consultation

Alloroots offers pan-India online consultations for stage identification and planning. Follow-up intervals depend on treatment type and response. Clinic hours are Monday to Saturday, with prior booking recommended.
