The Hair Vital Light Hair Therapy device is a soft laser, developed in Europe for the treatment of hair loss and diseases of the scalp. Low level laser therapy (LLLT), which gave birth to the laser hair therapy device, was first used to treat wounds and sores that would not heal using conventional medical therapies. These sores were usually located on the lower extremities of diabetes patients where the lack of blood supply was an issue.
Laser light was focused on the areas to be treated with astonishing results. Not only did the sores heal, but also the body hair located within the radius of the laser beam grew thicker and longer than the surrounding hair. This was proof-positive to researchers that laser light delivered with the correct power at the appropriate wavelength had a positive effect on cell function within the hair follicle.
In clinical studies, laser light is proven to stimulate cell metabolism, protein synthesis, tissue and cartilage regeneration, while dramatically increasing blood supply to the target area. This same technology is currently being used to successfully treat carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis and sport injuries.
YES! Laser Light Hair Therapy has recently been approved for cosmetic use in the United States as a Certified Class IIIA cosmetic laser by the Food and Drug Administration, which has the most rigid standards in the world.
Dr. David G. Williams, laser researcher, states:
- "Low Level Laser Therapy, or LLLT is a miraculous healing tool."
Dr. Pekka K. Pontinen of Sweden, the world's leading authority of LLLT, believes that the day will come when most homes will have a flash-light sized, low level laser device, capable of treating a wide range of medical problems from headaches and arthritis to burns and sports injuries.
Client/patients undergoing treatment with Hair Vital Laser Light Hair Therapy may experience a sensation of heat, accompanied by a tingling feeling from the scalp to the neck during treatment.
Hair Vital's Laser Light Hair Therapy has no thermal component, and the warm feeling can be attributed to stimulation of micro circulation of blood supply.
The effect of hair lasers on skin blood flow were measured on three different devices to establish the effect of scalp blood flow. The hair lasers used were Hair Vital Laser Light Hair Therapy (InGaA1, 670 nm) with 30 rotating diode lasers, an Italian manufactured laser (HeNe, 632.8 nm) marketed as the Boston Laser, and containing a single laser transferring light via lenses to the patient, and a laser identical to Hair Clinic Laser Light Hair Therapy in which the 30 diode lasers were replaced with (placebo) Light emitting Diode (LED).
Results:The results from the following Laser Light Hair Therapy program study were astonishing:
- 17 out of 18 people showed absolutely no further signs of hair loss
- 15 out of 18 people actually showed clear signs of new hair growth, with a reduction of at least one category in the Hamilton Classification chart
- 14 out of 18 people showed an increase in hair thickness
- All 18 people showed an overall improvement in general hair shaft quality
