Androgenetic alopecia is the most common cause of hair loss in both men and women, and a hereditary condition which causes hair follicles to shrink and become dormant, eventually stopping hair growth all together.
LLLT can also be used to treat other forms of alopecia and hair loss that stems from causes such as chemotherapy or severe hair loss that may occur in women after pregnancy or menopause.
It is also frequently used to complement other hair loss treatments such as PRP therapy and can be particularly effective in conjunction with hair transplant procedures. Results with LLLT have also shown to be even more beneficial than medications over the short-term.
The laser light that’s used in LLLT produces a particular wavelength, which has a unique ability to be absorbed by the molecules of the hair follicles. The light helps to shift hair follicles into the growth stage in multiple ways.
When it penetrates the scalp, it stimulates the stem cells responsible for the regeneration of the hair follicles, encouraging hair regrowth. It also works to increase the production of ATP and the metabolic process of the cells for faster hair growth.
The light acts to increase blood flow in the targeted region of the scalp, therefore increasing the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicles, causing the hair to grow with greater length and diameter. This helps to produce thicker hair shafts and results in fuller looking hair overall.
A variety of methods can be used to administer LLLT. Therapies can be administered in an in-office setting via hoods or overhead panels.
Popular products include laser combs, which are devices that emit LLLT similar to a hair brush, and helmets, which are also among the most common.
It may be an even better idea to consider consulting a medical professional that specializes in hair restoration and hair loss treatments.

Androgenetic alopecia is a hereditary condition causing hair follicles to shrink and become dormant. LLLT stimulates stem cells and increases blood flow to reactivate hair follicles and promote regrowth.
This system combines 5 targeted wavelengths: 808nm, 650nm, 630nm, 580nm, and 460nm, integrating Japanese laser diodes and cold LED lights for max efficacy.
LLLT light is absorbed by follicle cells, boosting ATP production, enhancing cellular metabolism, and increasing blood circulation to deliver oxygen and essential nutrients to the scalp.
The device features an Oxygen Spray Pen for scalp cleansing, a Medicine Spray Pen for hair growth topicals, a Micro-current Massage Comb, and a professional Hair & Scalp Analyzer.
Yes, LLLT is highly recommended as a complementary therapy alongside PRP treatment and post-hair transplant procedures to accelerate cellular recovery and enhance hair density.
