Laser Treatment For Hair Loss

Laser Hair Growth Treatment

Men and women can both be affected by the problems of hair loss. It can come at any time depending on how healthy you are or how abusive you are to your hair. Hair loss can come as a result of over-styling, over-using of chemical solutions and it may also be because of a disruption in the body�s hormonal and physical systems. Depending on the cause of the hair loss, you may opt for simple treatments like a deep conditioning every month, boosting your health from supplements to make your hair healthy too and to invest in chemical solutions to apply on your scalp to boost hair growth.

But did you know that there�s a new technology that�s supposed to boost hair growth as well? It�s called Low-Level Laser Light Therapy (LLT). LLLT is a general term that encompasses any laser therapy that does not break the skin and it appears to be a good alternative for improving the health of existing hair and in stimulating new hair growth.

How does it work? The principle behind it is simple. Exposure to such low-level laser light, on the scalp in this case, stimulates the blood supply in the scalp thereby allowing more nutrients to reach the hair follicles. Basically, LLLT supports the normal chemical processes of the cells of the body and only serve to enhance their performance. This kind of procedure is said to work best in combination with other healing treatments like when partnered with Propecia (Finasteride) and Rogaine (Minoxidil).

One other advantage of LLLT is that since it reaches down to the cellular level, it proves to be an invaluable resource in hastening the healing process after a patient has undergone hair transplant surgery.

In addition, there�s another medical breakthrough in the form of handheld LLLT devices like the Hairmax comb. It looks like a brush that discharges these low-level laser rays directly into your scalp. This is helpful for people on the go who don�t have the convenience of going to their doctor�s clinic for their dose of LLLT.

The success of laser therapy is dependent on how much hair growth you�re expecting. For instance, it may take a longer time to generate hair growth if you have already lost a significant amount of hair, like in the case of male-pattern baldness. It would seemingly be faster if you only have thinning hair because there�s less amount of hair to grow.
