Laser Hair Restoration
Laser Hair Restoration is one of newest and most exciting scientific approaches to hair loss that has recently been approved by the FDA. Patients have experienced visible results in as little as two months after beginning therapy. If you are loosing your hair or have noticed that the shaft has become thin and brittle, then you may be a candidate for laser hair therapy.
Patients are first evaluated to see if they fit the treatment parameters for the device. Patients with hair loss in the temple areas, crowns and other areas of thinning may benefit from this procedure if they still have living follicles within these areas. If you have noticed thinning in the recent past then time is of the essence. Once these follicles have died there is nothing anyone or anything can do to bring them back to life.
Patients will be examined with the use of a magnifying camera to determine if the hair follicles in the thinning areas are still viable. Pictures of the scalp will be taken to document the patient’s condition. If you are a good candidate for the procedure then treatment can be scheduled. Patients can expect to receive laser treatment for 6 to 12 months depending upon the condition of their scalp and how their hair responds to the laser. Patients will also be encouraged to use special products and supplements to augment the effect of the laser.
Patients are seated in a comfortable chair and the laser is lowered down around head. One of our trained staff will make sure that the entire area to be treated is exposed to the 56 independent laser beams within the head of the device. This is a completely painless procedure and will last 30 minutes. Treatment frequency and total time will be determined at the time of consult.
