Low-level Laser Therapy
If you’re struggling with hair loss, you’re not alone. In fact, it’s estimated that approximately 50 million men and 30 million women suffer from some form of hair loss. While there are a number of potential causes of hair loss, from genetics to medical conditions, the good news is that there are treatments available that can help. One such treatment is low-level laser therapy (LLLT). LLLT is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that has been shown to be effective in the regrowth of hair. Read on to learn more about how LLLT works and the benefits it can offer.
LLLT uses lasers to stimulate cells in the scalp that are responsible for hair growth. The procedure involves using a handheld device to direct the laser beam onto the scalp. The laser energy penetrates the scalp and stimulates the hair follicles, which promotes hair growth. The light from the lasers is absorbed by the mitochondria of the cells. This absorption then converts light energy into ATP, which helps to promote cell proliferation and tissue repair. In other words, LLLT helps to jumpstart the hair growth process.
LLLT is a safe procedure with few side effects. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately. LLLT has been shown to be effective in treating both male and female pattern baldness, and can be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other therapies.
One of the main benefits of LLLT is that it is non-invasive and doesn’t require any downtime. Unlike other methods of treating hair loss, such as surgery or medication, there are no side effects associated with LLLT. Additionally, LLLT has been shown to be effective in treating a variety of different types of hair loss, including alopecia areata. And because LLLT helps to promote cell proliferation and tissue repair, it can also be used to treat other conditions, such as chronic wounds.
If you’re struggling with hair loss, there’s no need to feel hopeless—treatments such as LLLT can get your hair health back on track. LLLT has been shown to be an effective treatment for a variety of different types of hair loss.
