Does Laser Hair Therapy Really Work?



At Transitions™ of Indiana, we offer only the latest technologies to provide our clients hair loss solutions custom-tailored to their individual needs. One of those solutions is low-level laser therapy. This non-surgical hair restoration procedure offers men and women a non-invasive treatment to combat the effects of hair loss. The low-level lasers often referred to as “cold” lasers have no thermal component and do not cut, burn or vaporize. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the promotion of hair growth and can be used by men and women of all skin and hair types. But, how effective is laser hair therapy?

The goal of laser hair therapy is to increase circulation of the blood to the base of the hair follicle and to stimulate nerves, muscles and growth. Over time, successive treatments help to strengthen existing hair follicles that have been weakened or damaged and break up the build-up found from the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Laser hair therapy may assist in the recovery of postoperative hair transplants and may increase the speed of new hair growth.

Results from a double-blind randomized experiment conducted by the American Journal of Clinical Dermatology showed that 110 patients with androgenic alopecia exhibited a larger increase in hair density after 26 weeks of therapy with a laser light comb compared to subjects who had been treated with a placebo device. Hair growth in subjects who used laser therapy increased by an average of 19 hairs per square centimeter, versus an average of seven hairs per square centimeter in those using a placebo device. Subjects treated with laser hair therapy experienced healthier conditions such as thicker, shinier and more manageable hair compared to those who used a placebo device.

Laser Hair Therapy is recommended to patients experiencing hair loss for several reasons. First, it’s a viable alternative to those seeking a hair loss solution that is non-surgical. Moreover, Men and Women who may be seeking a hair transplant procedure are not always a candidate for that procedure. For individuals who are “non-candidates” laser hair therapy may be the most viable option for stimulating natural hair growth that doesn’t require surgery. Secondly, it may be highly effective for women. Women may have more difficulty achieving favorable results from a hair transplant procedure. Low-level laser therapy can deliver favorable results before, after or in place of a transplant procedure.
