Laser Hair Therapy, also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or red light therapy, is a non-invasive treatment commonly used to promote hair growth and reduce Hair Loss.
Here’s what you can expect before, during, and after the treatment:
Before Treatment:
- Free Consultation: You’ll typically start with a Free Consultation with a specialist to assess your hair loss pattern using our medical microscope and determine if you’re a good candidate for LLLT. We would then move on to setting realistic expectations – results vary from person to person. LLLT is most effective when combined with carefully selected HLC products, dependent on the type and stage of Hair Loss.
- Preparation: There’s no major preparation required. You may be advised to wash your hair before the session to remove any product buildup.
During Treatment:
- Procedure: LLLT uses medical-grade lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to emit low levels of red light onto the scalp. It can be administered in a clinical setting.
- In-clinic treatments: You’ll sit under a dome-shaped device for around 20 – 40 minutes dependent on your treatment plan.
- Painless Process: The treatment is painless, with no heat or discomfort involved. Many people find the process relaxing.
After Treatment:
- Minimal Downtime: There’s no downtime after treatment, and you can resume your normal activities immediately.
- Results Timeline: Hair growth is gradual, and most people start to notice results after 2-6 months of consistent use. Some early signs of success include reduced hair shedding and the appearance of fine new hairs.
- Maintenance: Ongoing treatments can be necessary dependent on the type and stage of Hair Loss.
- Side Effects: LLLT is safe with no side effects.
In summary, Laser Hair Therapy is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that promotes hair growth over time. Patience is key, as noticeable results can take a few months to appear.
