One of the proven and medically-tested procedures in treating hair loss today is the laser hair therapy, a non-surgical method using low-lever laser power



This procedure involves the use of a gadget having a number of restorative low level lasers to treat hair loss and other scalp-related problems. The light energy generated by the laser enhances blood flow to the scalp, fuels cell metabolism and repairs damaged cells.

People who are suffering from problems like baldness and severe thinning of hair, scalp disorders like itchy scalp, dandruff and psoriasis are qualified candidates for laser therapy. It can also be a great help for those who have undergone hair transplants to enable them to maintain their hair and avoid recurrence of hair loss as well as shorten its healing period Aside from these, the hair will grow faster and thicker this time.

A study published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology disclosed that “a 93% increase in hair among the respondents” using laser therapy.  Recently, a study showed that 90% of the users achieved beneficial effects and results.

Specifically, laser hair therapy provides the following benefits:

Dr Alan Bauman, a hair restoration physician and an expert on hair loss said that there are eight key issues to consider before undergoing a laser therapy for hair loss or buying a gadget for this purpose, to wit:

  • You should know how a laser hair therapy works.
  • Is it the right treatment?
  • When do you expect to see the desired results?
  • What are the drawbacks if treatment is stopped or discontinued?
  • Is it applicable to men and women?
  • How much does it cost?
  • What are the other available alternatives?
  • How do you know if it really works for you?

Dr. Bauman emphasized that people suffering from hair loss should consult a doctor specializing in hair restoration as well as laser hair therapy Some hair loss therapy programs include laser, topical and oral products for maximum results. The use of one or two products does not readily produce the desired result, that’s why some people stop treatment before seeing the full results which lasts up to six months.

It is still best to look into the root problem of the hair loss before resorting to hair loss treatments. When all else fails, laser hair loss therapy can be a great help in solving your hair loss or thinning hair problem.
