Hair Loss Organizations

The following are the only hair loss related non-profit or consumer organizations currently recognized by the American Hair Loss Association.

The American Academy of Dermatology

www.aad.org

The American academy of dermatology is the largest, and most representative of all dermatologic associations. With a membership of over 13,700, it represents virtually all-practicing dermatologists in the United States.

While the AAD is not specifically a hair loss organization they do support the furthering of hair loss awareness and have many hair loss experts in their membership.

International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons

www.iahrs.org

The International Alliance of Hair Restoration Surgeons is a consumer organization that selectively screens skilled and ethical hair transplant surgeons. The IAHRS does not offer an open membership policy to doctors practicing hair transplantation, and is the only group that recognizes that all surgeons are not equal in their skill and technique. Its elite membership seeks to represent the best in the discipline, the true leaders in the field of surgical hair restoration. The IAHRS' goal is to provide a safe place for prospective patients to choose a surgeon based on skill and not on their ability to buy public opinion through advertising.

The International Alliance of Hair restoration Surgeons (IAHRS) is the only organization in the world whose membership is limited exclusively to state-of-the-art hair restoration surgeons. The IAHRS is the patient's advocate, the ethical physician's voice, and the standard for the profession.
