Thick hair is a symbol of feminine beauty and appearance, and hair loss does not cause less harm to men than women. Studies have shown that hair loss can reduce men's self-esteem, make appointments difficult, and make employment harder.
There are many reasons for hair loss: heredity, hormones, environment, diet and daily activities. Whether male or female, androgenic alopecia or resting hair loss are often related to the secretion of genes and hormones.
Low intensity laser therapy has been recognized by hair doctors and hair loss patients in recent years.
In 1998, hair laser served as category 3A laser and obtained FDA security approval.
In December 2003, laser equipment as "method and equipment to stimulate hair follicle activity" received US patent (No.: #6666878).
2005 -2007: a randomized, double blind, multicenter, comparative study of androgenic alopecia treated with LLLT and LED therapy, respectively. The results were released in the third quarter of 2008.
In 2007, the study of laser generated human tissue slices began.
A single center open trial was conducted in April 2008. The potential effect of LLLT on eyebrow repair of alopecia areata was studied by laser hair detector.
In the fourth quarter of 2008, a randomized, double blind, controlled control, single center trial was conducted to investigate the beginning of a clinical study on the potential efficacy of laser in the prevention of hair loss in chemotherapy.
1. laser hair generation is a new method of treating hair loss with low energy cold laser (LLLT), which is widely recognized internationally. Compared with drugs (such as minoxidil and Finasteride Tablets), there is no side effect. Under the premise of ensuring safety, clinical effectiveness has been widely verified.
2. a new safe and effective way to treat AGA is provided. Laser is the best wavelength for screening hair after more clinical tests.
3. in the area of alopecia adaptation, the selection of laser is a very important method for the people who are not effective in the treatment of drug treatment or in the population with less age and less suitable for drug treatment. The correlation of the exposure time, dose, frequency and the degree of specific hair loss has a profound meaning of clinical research.
4. laser has a positive effect on wound healing (as has been documented), so it can be used in hair transplantation, and the possibility of improving clinical efficacy is very high.
Where is the laser hair loss?
There are three widely accepted treatments for hair loss: minoxidil, androgen, and hair transplantation, but there is always such a side effect. Minoxidil is a first-line product approved by FDA for the treatment of androgenic alopecia and pause hair loss. Possible side effects include headache, vertigo, etc. For men, anti androgen therapy (such as finasteride) is also effective. Possible side effects include impotence, decreased libido and reduced sperm count. Patients who can not tolerate side effects can stop taking medication under guidance. For people with severe alopecia, hair transplant is the only real strategy. The process involves cutting off the transplanted hair from the thick back of the head or picking a single hair follicle to transplant to the bald area. Most patients need one to two times of treatment. The cost of treatment varies according to the way of transplantation and the number of hair follicles transplanted.
LLLT is a therapy that has almost no side effects. It provides a safe and effective alternative therapy. In clinical observation, almost all patients who received treatment did not have any headache, itching, erythema, burning or tingling.
At present, the popular treatment equipment for LLLT is laser helmet, also called laser hair cap. The hair growth cap further integrates and optimizes LLLT's decades of research, so that it can effectively grow hair. The energy of LLLT can be specifically absorbed by hair follicles in hair follicles. This therapy can dredge sebaceous duct, reduce and control oil secretion and improve hair loss. It can also promote blood circulation in the head, so that oxygen and nutrients can be sent to hair follicles in time to prevent hair loss. And most of the hair follicles in the rest period are excited to be active, to improve the problem of the end of the rest period and the short growth period. The hair grown by light stimulation is stronger and stronger than that of the normal hair.
Based on practical experience, 80% patients with androgenic alopecia had their hair thickening after 3-6 months of treatment, and almost all patients with repose hair loss stopped hair loss. After one year of LLLT treatment, the hair continues to grow. Most people will persist in follow-up treatment in order to maintain their effectiveness.
