Laser Hair Rejuvenation

WHAT IS LASER HAIR REJUVENATION THERAPY?
Laser Hair Rejuvenation is a “NEW” non-surgical scientific approach to treating hair loss, thinning hair, baldness and problems associated with the scalp. Laser Hair Rejuvenation is a tested method using low level laser energy, or “soft” laser light to effectively treat the appearance of hair loss.

The Laser Hair Rejuvenation non-surgical treatments utilize a device containing therapeutic low level lasers developed in Europe. The treatment delivers light energy directly from rotating laser positions designed to cosmetically treat the appearance of thin, fine, damaged hair. Physicians are praising this technology as an effective treatment.

THE EVOLUTION OF LASER HAIR REJUVENATION
In 1964, Professor Andre Mester began experimenting with the use of low-power laser energy in Budapest, Hungary. In his experiments with wound treatment on mice, he noticed rapid healing due to microcirculation of blood supply. This healing was also obvious in Laser Hair Rejuvenation treatment of diabetic patients suffering with dystrophic sores. He was amazed to find sores that would not otherwise heal were healed, and he also observed the appearance of accelerated hair growth and thickening of hair in the treated areas. Today NASA is using Low Level Lasers to heal wounds of there astronauts in space.

This theory through its evolution has since been refined and is widely becoming one of the most popular non-invasive hair loss treatments.

WHAT CAUSES HAIR LOSS OR THINNING HAIR?

· Heredity

· Male Pattern Baldness

· Diet

· Medications

· Postpartum Changes

· Menopausal Changes

· Excessive Chemical Processing

· Stress

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LASER HAIR REJUVENATION?

· Maintains the appearance of the hair in 85%-93%

· Achieves fuller, thicker, healthier looking hair.

· Effective in both men and women.

· Success in all ages.

· No Discomfort.

· No Negative side effects

· No medications

· Increases the appearance of the hairs volume and strength

WHO IS THE BEST CANDIDATE FOR LASER HAIR REJUVENATION?

Generally men in the early stages of male pattern baldness and women who are experiencing a general thinning of the density throughout. Laser Hair Rejuvenation is the long anticipated answer for the hair transplant specialist challenged by the ineligibility to perform transplant procedures on certain individuals primarily due to the following scenarios:

a) Patients with early stages of hair loss. (Thinning areas where the existing hair is still too close together to warrant an incision between the existing hairs.)

b) Women that experience general thinning throughout including the sides and back area where a transplant specialist would typically harvest the donor site.

IS LASER HAIR REJUVENATION SAFE?

Yes! The Laser Hair Rejuvenation devise, (which is classified as a Certified Class IIIA cosmetic laser) is recognized by the FDA and is approved for cosmetic use in the United States.

The energy produced by the photons does not have the thermal component to cause thermal injuries to users or operators.

HAVE THE BENEFITS OF LASER HAIR REJUVENATION
BEEN SCIENTIFICALLY MEASURED?

Yes! A double-blind placebo controlled study was conducted to evaluate the effect of Laser Hair Rejuvenation by comparing it with a placebo laser. All patients with the exception of one in the laser treated group showed a complete stop of hair loss. All patients except three showed a clear re-growth of hair with a reduction of at least one category in the Norwood Classification. Out of 18 patients, 14 showed an increase in hair thickness and all 18 showed improvement in the general hair shaft quality. The results showed no improvement in the placebo group or any adverse effects of the treatment. The present double-blind study confirmed by histological examination, revealed that re-growth of new hairs can be achieved in the most middle-age and younger males with typical male pattern baldness, when the scalp is irradiated with Laser Hair Rejuvenation for 30 minutes twice a week for 5 weeks.
