For both men and women 18 years old and older there is now a home use, hand=held laser hair brush that can improve the look of your hair. If your genetics are signaling that you will most likely lose hair when older, it is never too early to start treatment. The earlier you begin, the more likely you are to save your hair. Once you have assessed the reason for your thinning hair or hair loss, and have determined that there are no open sores or other scalp diseases, you are ready to start your low level laser therapy.
Consult an Expert
A quality laser hair brush manufacturer is an expert in the practice and administration of laser hair restoration and can advise if this treatment option is a viable solution for your current state of hair loss. Hair loss is progressive, and anything done to slow down that loss can be considered positive. It should be noted that the low level laser hair therapy used in a laser hair brush is not a cure, but a treatment option to be considered. It is most successfully administered along with a regimen of low sudsing shampoo, non buildup conditioning product and vitamins specific to male or female hair health.
Just as all living things grow with the help of sunlight, your hair can benefit from concentrated levels of light. The cool levels of laser light used in the new laser hair brush is safe and involves only light, not heat. This laser hair re-growth procedure is non-invasive, painless, and has no known side effects as long as you choose a device that follows FDA guidelines. In fact, laser hair brushes are often used in conjunction with hair restoration surgery as a healing method because of its skin repairing properties. Surgery and prescription medications can be much more costly, and not as safe. Since many of the medications that treat thinning hair are not prescribed to women, use of a laser hair brush is often the best option for female hair-loss patients.
How Does the New Laser Hair Brush Work?
The new laser hair brush with rows of diode lasers use a patented, hand held device which enables coverage of the entire scalp through the use of up to 36 diodes that are calibrated to precisely deliver consistent laser light at an optimum distance from each hair follicle. Low level light therapy or LLLT is referred to as a cold laser because it does not have any heat components. It is also described as a low-power laser, soft laser or therapeutic laser. The laser stimulates the follicles on the scalp helping to increase energy production thereby reducing the effects of protein blocking DHT enzymes, promoting hair thickness and density. This improved cell metabolism eliminates oxygen free radicals and improves blood flow to all treated areas. This non-invasive, painless laser treatment can make hair look fuller and shinier. Most people see results in as few as 6-8 weeks of laser therapy, but each user’s response varies on an individual basis, depending on their personal hair loss history.
LLLT administered to the scalp has been shown to improve the health of existing hair as well as stimulate new hair growth and stop hair loss. In the current age of men and women wanting to look younger and feel more confident in the workplace as well as in social circles, the laser hair brush seems to be the best method of obtaining all of this.
