What is Low-Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT)?
LLLT has been approved by the FDA as a hair loss treatment for both men and women. It is mainly used to treat androgenetic alopecia or what’s often referred to as male or female pattern-baldness.
Androgenetic alopecia is the most common cause of hair loss in both men and women, and a hereditary condition which causes hair follicles to shrink and become dormant, eventually stopping hair growth all together.
LLLT can also be used to treat other forms of alopecia and hair loss that stems from causes such as chemotherapy or severe hair loss that may occur in women after pregnancy or menopause.
Our expert physicians also recommend that LLLT be used to complement other hair loss treatments and can be particularly effective in conjunction with hair transplant procedures.
Low-Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) is beneficial for hair growth through several mechanisms. First, it stimulates hair follicles, increasing blood flow to the scalp and delivering essential nutrients for healthier hair growth. Additionally, LLLT reduces inflammation in the scalp, creating a conducive environment for hair follicles to thrive. It also extends the growth phase of hair follicles, resulting in thicker and denser hair over time. LLLT can strengthen weakened follicles, minimize hair shedding, and promote new hair growth. Overall, LLLT offers a non-invasive and effective solution for improving hair density and quality.
How is Low-Level Laser Light Therapy combined with other treatments?
Combining Low-Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) with other treatments like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) with exosomes and hair transplants, as offered at Doctor Edges, can enhance the overall effectiveness of hair loss treatment in several ways.
Firstly, LLLT can complement PRP with exosomes by promoting better absorption and utilization of the growth factors and cytokines present in the PRP and exosome solution. LLLT can increase blood flow to the scalp, allowing for improved delivery of these therapeutic components to the hair follicles, thereby enhancing their regenerative effects.
Secondly, LLLT can optimize the results of hair transplants by stimulating the growth and survival of newly transplanted hair follicles. After a hair transplant procedure, the scalp undergoes a healing process during which the survival and growth of transplanted hair follicles are crucial. LLLT can accelerate the healing process, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair, leading to better outcomes and faster recovery following a hair transplant.
Furthermore, LLLT can be used as a maintenance therapy after PRP with exosomes or a hair transplant to prolong the benefits and preserve the health of the remaining hair follicles. By regularly stimulating the scalp with LLLT, patients can maintain improved hair density and quality over the long term, preventing further hair loss and promoting overall scalp health.
Overall, combining LLLT with other hair loss treatments like PRP with exosomes and hair transplants offered at Doctor Edges can provide synergistic effects, leading to superior outcomes for patients seeking to address hair loss concerns. This comprehensive approach addresses multiple aspects of hair restoration, maximizing the chances of achieving natural-looking, long-lasting results.
What to Realistically Expect ?
LLLT is incredibly effective at treating the thinner, weaker hair follicles. It has been shown to help make hair grow thicker, stronger, and healthier. When combined with our expert physicians non-surgical and surgical hair loss treatment options you can achieve notable improvement of your hair’s appearance and volume.
LLLT does not work in cases where baldness has existed for many years. It does not grow hair on areas of the scalp where there’s no hair at all, as there are no hair follicles to stimulate. LLLT only works on active hair follicles and has no effect on hair follicles that are already dead.
For this reason, it’s ideal to start LLLT as soon as possible in order to achieve maximum hair restoration benefit. The best results occur when combined with our non-surgical and surgical hair loss therapies and when used in the first stages of hair loss or in cases of partial hair loss.
