LOW-LEVEL LASER THERAPY

Low-level Laser Therapy

What is it?

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for hair growth was accidentally discovered in the 1960s during a cancer research study. In the study, mice exposed to laser treatments unexpectedly exhibited accelerated hair growth compared to those in the control group. This surprising outcome sparked further investigations into the therapeutic potential of low-level lasers, particularly in fields such as dermatology, surgery, and orthopedics.


Today, LLLT is FDA-approved and widely used to treat a variety of conditions, including neck and back pain, difficult-to-heal wounds, wrinkles, scars, and hair loss. Its non-invasive nature and effectiveness have made it a popular choice for both medical and cosmetic applications.

How does it work?

LLLT delivers controlled doses of laser light to the scalp, penetrating the upper layers of the skin. Through a process called Photobiomodulation (PBM), the light wavelengths interact with hair follicles and other cell structures, stimulating cellular activity and promoting new hair growth.


In addition to stimulating hair follicles, LLLT enhances blood circulation in the scalp, which is essential for revitalizing hair follicles. Improved blood flow increases the supply of oxygen and vital nutrients to the follicles, creating an ideal environment for hair growth. Consequently, LLLT not only promotes the regrowth of hair but also supports the health of existing hair, resulting in thicker, fuller hair over time.
