Hair Replacement Therapy
Hair loss is common among Men, women and even sometimes occurs with children. There are a lot of different routes to go when looking for a solution to hair loss. One option is Hair replacement therapy. When someone hears that term is sounds kind of scary and you think of needles and doctors and it can be overwhelming. I am here to tell you more about hair therapy to ease your fears and concerns and educate you.
One kind of hair therapy is Low Level Laser Therapy. The primary goal of this specific kind of treatment is to stimulate hair organs which are nerves and muscles of the hair follicles, also to increase circulation of the blood to the hair follicles. The basic effects of LLLT to pretty much enhance the normal cycle of hair growth. Some of the effects of using Laser therapy are:
- Increasing nutrients to make hair grow
- Makes hair grow more quickly
- Also stops the progress of hair loss
When deciding to use laser therapy you can go with 2 different choices in the device being used. One is the Class 3A Laser Machine. Using that device will require you to go for sometimes two or more visits to the clinic a week. Also currently this device is not approved by the FDA it is still pending. You second choice will be the Handheld laser comb. I would personally choose this one because you can use it at home. You would use this particular device three to four times a week for ten to 15 minutes each time as before with the laser machine this device also is pending approval from the FDA.
There also prime candidates that would benefit the most from Laser Therapy based on some clinical trials performed. Men and women between the ages of 18 and 65 years of age are also thinning to moderate loss of hair. Based on studies around 90% of patients will receive results within 8 to 16 weeks. The other 10% should see results after 16 weeks.
There are also different programs that some companies offer to have this procedure done based on the customers’ needs. There is a program that is considered in-clinic at that has included 46 sessions over a 12 month period of time. That also includes measuring of hair density three times also. There is another type of program available that offers in-clinic and at home procedures. Picking that program you will be using the hand held laser at home about three times a week and twelve sessions in the clinic. Last but not least there is a Post-Operative option available. This specific program consists of only two 20 minute sessions at the clinic each week for a term of eight weeks. Patients that choose post-operative notice that their healing is very much accelerated and that there is minimal scarring left. Also graft appearance is overall improved and there is no swelling afterwards.
I hope the information that I provided you assists you in deciding which kind of hair loss treatment will work for you and benefit you the most. Also make sure to research your options before making a decision on a solution.
