Treatment (LLLT)
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses red or near-infrared light to stimulate hair follicles. Often referred to as “photobiomodulation,” LLLT enhances cellular activity and improves blood circulation in the scalp, which can promote hair regrowth and reduce hair fall.
How Does LLLT Work?
- Stimulates Hair Follicles: The low-level lasers deliver gentle energy that penetrates the scalp, activating hair follicle cells and encouraging them to enter a growth phase.
- Enhances Blood Flow: Improved circulation delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to the follicles, supporting healthier hair production.
- Reduces Inflammation: LLLT helps mitigate scalp inflammation, which can contribute to hair loss.
Benefits of LLLT for Hair Fall Treatment
- Non-Invasive & Painless: LLLT is a comfortable procedure that requires no incisions or injections.
- Minimal Downtime: Patients can resume normal activities immediately following treatment.
- Safe for All Hair Types: Suitable for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or loss.
- Improved Hair Density: Regular sessions may lead to increased hair thickness, reduced shedding, and overall improved scalp health.
- Complementary Therapy: Can be used alongside other treatments such as topical solutions, PRP therapy, or hair transplants for enhanced results.
The LLLT Treatment Procedure
- Consultation & Evaluation:
- A hair specialist assesses your scalp and hair loss pattern to determine if LLLT is a suitable option.
- Preparation:
- No special preparation is required; you can typically continue with your regular routine.
- Laser Application:
- The treatment involves using a laser cap, comb, or panel that emits low-level laser light over the scalp.
- Sessions generally last 20–30 minutes, with the frequency determined by your hair loss severity and treatment plan.
- Treatment Course:
- Multiple sessions are usually recommended over several months to achieve and maintain optimal results.
Aftercare & Maintenance
- Consistent Use: Regular sessions are key to maintaining the benefits of LLLT.
- The laser settings are customized to suit the specific needs of the condition.
- Healthy Lifestyle: Complementing LLLT with a balanced diet, proper hydration, and stress management can further enhance hair health.
- Follow-Up Consultations: Regular check-ups with your hair specialist ensure the treatment is progressing as expected.
