Hair loss is a common problem worldwide. Although there are some drugs and options for surgery to treat this, the use of non-painful and at-home treatments is becoming very popular in the medical market.
With that, there are now some laser devices to improve the overall thickness and volume of hair. Lasers provide high energy density that allows intense and effective stimulation of hair follicles, promoting the reactivation of the hair’s natural growth pattern with greater blood circulation and collagen production.
Many different brands have created different models that vary in application and laser intensity. They are mostly designed to be a safe and comfortable experience for the users.
Models like the CapillusPro Laser Therapy Cap come in a convenient baseball cap design with low-level laser therapy that aims at hereditary hair loss. On a less discreet end, the Theradome PRO Laser Hair Growth Helmet is designed to deliver maximum results due to its cool laser phototherapy and is comfortable with its cushioned and ergonomic design and automatic shut-off features.
There are also models shaped like brushes like the SunshineFace 3-in-1 Phototherapy Comb, equipped with infrared light and massage therapy that promote blood circulation in the scalp. This encourages hair regrowth. A portable travel-friendly model is the HairMax LaserBand 82 device, which is clinically proven to create healthier, thicker, and fuller-looking hair.
A dermatologist should be consulted before use to determine if laser hair therapy is adequate for your objectives and helps with picking the right model.
