What
is Laser Hair Therapy™?
Laser Hair Therapy™
(LHT) is a “NEW” non-surgical scientific approach to treating hair
loss, thinning hair, baldness and problems associated with the
scalp. This patented cool laser creates a soft halo of light around
the scalp. LHT is a medically tested, effective and proven method using
low level laser energy, or “soft cool” laser light to effectively treat
and control problem hair loss.
The LHT
non-surgical treatments utilize a device containing therapeutic
soft low light level lasers developed in Europe for the treatment of
hair loss and diseases of the scalp. The treatment delivers light
energy directly from multiple rotating laser positions designed to
increase the blood flow to the scalp. The laser therapy functions on
the same scientific principal of that of photo biotherapy; where the
laser light stimulates cell metabolism and causes damaged cells to
be repaired. This breakthrough technology has recently been featured
on national newscasts across the country. Physicians are praising
this technology as an effective treatment to combat hair loss.
How long has AMI been
offering
Laser Hair Therapy™?
Three years ago, Advanced Medical Institute was
the first company to introduce this technology in Minnesota. Laser
Hair Therapy™ is now available at all AMI locations. As a
result, AMI success stories have been featured in both local and
national newscasts.
Evolution of Laser Hair Therapy™
This non-invasive technology
has been used successfully in Europe for over 10 years and is being
hailed today in the United States as a major break-through in
combating hair loss.
Laser Light Therapy was first tested
in Europe over fifteen years ago. It was designed to treat diseases of
the scalp and skin.
In
1964, Professor Andre Mester began experimenting with the use of
low-power laser energy in Budapest, Hungary. He observed that
low energy laser exposure has a stimulating effect on the
biological system, while high-energy laser exposure had an
inhibiting effect.
In his experiments with wound
treatment on mice, he noticed rapid healing due to microcirculation
of blood supply. This healing was also obvious in laser light
treatment of diabetic patients suffering with dystrophic sores. He
was amazed to find sores that would not otherwise heal were healed,
and he also observed accelerated hair growth and thickening of
hair in the treated areas.
This theory through its evolution
has since been refined and is widely becoming one of the most
popular non-invasive hair loss treatments.
Laser researcher
Dr. J. Layton Wright states: …”Laser
Hair Therapy increases microcirculation of the hair follicle, which
allows nutrients and freshly oxygenated blood to access the hair
follicle
with the results being a stimulation of the natural hair growth
cycle.”
What causes hair loss or thinning hair?
What are the benefits of Laser Hair
Therapy™?
-
Increases blood supply to the
scalp by 54% after only one treatment.
-
Stops the progression of
hair loss in 85% of the patients.
-
Stimulates regrowth of hair.
-
Repairs and improves hair shaft
quality resulting in a 25% increase in volume.
-
Dramatically prolongs the
life of hair color and perms.
-
Relieves irritating scalp
conditions.
-
When used post-operatively with
hair transplantation, the newly transplanted hair follicles can
forego their dormancy stage.

Who is the best candidate for Laser
Hair Therapy™?
Men and women
between the ages of 18 and 65, with thinning to moderate hair loss. LHT is
the long anticipated answer for the hair transplant specialist
challenged by the ineligibility to perform transplant procedures on
certain individuals primarily due to the following scenarios:
A) Patients
with early stages of hair loss. (Thinning areas where the existing
hair is still too close together to warrant an incision between the
existing hairs.)
B) Women
that experience general thinning throughout including the sides and
back area where a transplant specialist would typically harvest the
donor site.
Is Laser Hair Therapy™ Safe?
Yes! The Laser
Hair Therapy™
devise, (which is classified as a Certified Class IIIA cosmetic
laser) is approved for cosmetic use in
the United States.
The energy
produced by the photons does not have the thermal component to cause
thermal injuries to users or operators. Laser light energy does not
change or alter molecular structures; it stimulates the body’s
mechanism to repair and heal itself.
Have The Benefits of
Laser Hair Therapy™ Been Scientifically
Measured?
Yes! A double-blind placebo
controlled study was conducted to evaluate the effect of laser light
therapy by comparing it with a placebo laser.
-
All patients with the exception of
one in the laser treated group showed a complete stop of hair
loss.
-
All patients, except 3 showed a
clear regrowth of hair with a reduction of at least one category
in the Norwood Classification.
-
Out of 18 patients, 14 showed an
increase in hair thickness and all 18 showed improvement in the
general hair shaft quality. The results showed no improvement in
the placebo group or any adverse effects of the treatment.
-
The present double-blind study
confirmed by histological examination, revealed that regrowth of
new hairs can be achieved in the most middle-age and younger males
with typical male pattern baldness, when the scalp is irradiated
with Laser Light Therapy for 30 minutes twice a week for 5 weeks.
The treatments are pain free, completely safe without side
effects.
