Androgenic alopecia (Male pattern baldness) not only alters the physical appearance of a person, but also leads to mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues and social phobias. Other cosmetic procedures and treatments are covered by health insurance providers, ranging from acne treatment to breast implants. Androgenic alopecia in young men in particular would cost less overall than the ineffective treatment and medication for mental illnesses that would not exist otherwise.
