Singer Adam Levine surprised his fans recently by debuting a shaved head. Could it be the star is trying to hide something with his new look?  Levine, 33, was beginning to see early signs of recession before the decision to switch to a closely shaved style.

Levine  would hardly be the first celebrity to embrace these treatments, more celebrities are investing in hair restoration than ever before. New technology and non-invasive procedures are selling points for many actors looking to enhance their looks discreetly.

We recently talked about Gossip Girl actor Ed Westwick's receding hairline. But he isn't the only show star with some early signs of recession - just look at photos of costar Penn Badgley. At 25, he too has some early recession in the temporal region. Considering his young age, and his role on the popular show, Badgley should probably start thinking about preventative care. He'll likely need the aid of an FDA-approved medication like Rogaine or Propecia to stop or slow down further recession. Low level laser therapy may also be beneficial in stimulating healthy hair growth.

Tennis star Andy Roddick is making headlines, but unfortunately, not for his tennis game. The 29-year old athlete is garnering attention for his new haircut - a mohawk!  When asked about his decision to cut his hair, he replied: "I'm pretty sure I only have a year or two left with hair, so I decided to have fun with it while I did." While Roddick may seem young to be facing hair loss, it isn't uncommon. Nearly 30 percent of men experience some degree of hair loss in their 30s and that number increases to 40 percent as men enter their 40s. Considering his age, Roddick might want to consider a proactive hair regimen of FDA-approved Propecia or Rogaine, which could help prevent or slow down the progression of hair loss.

Considering his status on the Hollywood A-list, Beckham might want to consider a proactive hair regimen of FDA-approved Propecia or Rogaine, which could help him avoid any further recession.

There is new hope for men and women faced with thinning hair, Latisse, the same drug that has been proven effective in growing thicker, longer, darker eyelashes. Latisse is already FDA approved to grow eyelashes, but Allergan recently began Phase 2 clinical trials to use it on male and female pattern hair loss as well. If it succeeds, it will be only the second topical treatment to receive FDA approval for hair loss (the other is Rogaine). I've been prescribing Latisse for off-label use on the scalp - and have already begun seeing some promising results. Latisse isn't going to regrow hair on a bald scalp but it can help tool in preventing hair loss. For more on Latisse for hair loss, check out my  recent article  on  TODAY.com .
