With laser technology becoming more commonplace over the years, science has proven that lasers can be utilized harmlessly and effectively for a number of applications.

How Laser Hair Combs Work

Laser hair combs contain laser beams that work to generate a red spectrum light on the scalp. This red light spectrum may enable more blood flow and cell activity to the hair follicle. This can improve blood circulation which can bring important nutrients to the hair follicles and can promote fuller looking hair, and in turn help to develop thicker, stronger hair. Metabolites known to cause hair loss may also be fought off by these nutrients.

Regular use can show results within the first six weeks of use. The areas where thin hair was once prominent can start to look thicker and fuller, which may resemble peach fuzz at first. Prolonged use can make newly-grown hair appear thicker and more normal-looking hair.

Scientific Evidence For Laser Therapy

The International Journal of Cosmetic Surgery and Aesthetic Dermatology (2003,Volume 5, Number 2) conducted a study about the efficacy of the HairMax laser comb. The stimulation of hair growth through low-level laser therapy as well as the strength of the hair after treatment were the primary goals of this test.

The laser combs were given to 28 male and 7 female users who suffered from androgenetic alopecia patients, ranging from ages 28-76. For every other week in a span of 6 months, they were specifically instructed to use the comb slowly, covering clean, dry hair on the scalp for 5-10 minutes for each session. An increase in the hair's tensile strength reached 76.9%. In addition, hair count on all patients increased in the temporal area by 69.1%, as well as in the vertex area by 111.9%.

Benefits of Hair Treatment with Laser Technology

Men or women who are considering prescription or over the counter hair medications or supplements may opt to use a laser hair comb instead, laser technology utilized in this fashion does not contain the harmful or irritating side effects that a variety of medications may have.

Laser hair combs are easy to use, simply brush slowly over your whole head for 10 minutes every other day. That’s it – no lotions, gels, pills or other products. And you may begin to notice that your hair is looking stronger and healthier in as little as 6 weeks.
