Close-Up: Jon Cryer's Hair Loss

Two and a Half Men star Jon Cryer has been noticeably balding for years, often concealing it on set and at big events with what appear to be hair pieces and possibly also camouflage agents. 

Cryer is a great example of someone who would benefit tremendously from a multi-therapy treatment approach, combining hair transplantation and supportive medical therapies. 

As can be seen in the photos below, when Cryer is without any hair piece, his hair loss is quite extensive throughout the crown:

At the same time, however, the crown still has many surviving follicles, and a surgical procedure could rebuild density throughout those areas:

As extensive as Cryer's hair loss is, it's still treatable with a combination of NeoGraft FUE (most certainly multiple sessions), plus compounded finasteride FinPlus, Formula 82M, Viviscal Pro, etc. He could vastly improve his hairline, rebuilding most of it, were he to undergo proper treatment with a qualified, board-certified hair restoration surgeon.

Often, hair loss patients make the mistake of thinking that their condition is "too bad" to be fixed. While waiting to seek treatment certainly doesn't help, in many cases even extreme cases can be fixed with the proper treatment plan.

Hopefully Cryer will seek out a hair restoration physician at some point. It would be a shame to see him go fully bald when he doesn't have to.

Jon Cryer Admits Hair is Fake

'Two and a Half Men' star Jon Cryer appeared on Conan O'Brien this week and made a hair loss confession - his character's hair on the hit show is fake!

What was perhaps most surprising about the revelation was how Jon is choosing to address his hair loss, telling Conan: "This is the work of several talented professionals making the most of, like, four hairs. It's amazing, actually, what they can do. I'm not wearing a piece or anything like that, but it's a long, involved process that starts with stuff like shoe polish."

While the actor was able to make jokes about his hair loss and his 'fake mane,' for many, hair loss is no laughing matter. But luckily, for most people, hair loss can be a treatable condition.

One of the best things you can do for your hair is to take a proactive approach to managing any signs of hair loss or thinning. Early detection is one of the most effective tools we have in treating thinning. It is important to consult with a board-certified hair restoration physician— who can evaluate, measure and manage your hair loss issues and find the right treatment for you.

Time for Jon Cryer to Address Hair Loss?

With Two and a Half Men on a temporary hiatus, Jon Cryer might want to think about using the time off to address his thinning hair. 

The actor, 45, is experiencing thinning across his hairline and some recession in the temporal region. While he could benefit from a regular regimen of Rogaine, Low Level Laser Therapy would help him strengthen and regrow his thinning hair. 

But if Jon really wants to make the most of his unexpected time off, he might want to consider a follicular-unit extraction hair transplant with NeoGraft. The non-invasive procedure is common among actors as it leaves no linear scarring and there is little downtime after the procedure.
