Lasers in my opinion do not grow hair. I’ve offered it at my practice for FREE. I even gave it away as a study. I have not seen results. Maybe you can claim the patients didn’t use it right. The studies or papers that are out there do not show clear results. If they work, […]

Our laser cap trials were inconclusive with mixed results. The subjective view of some patients suggested benefit, but when we measured the hair bulk on these patients we saw not benefit. Patients had mixed reviews. One can argue that the trials were inherently flawed because we gave the laser caps away as a compensation for […]
There are many lotions, potions, and similar products that are sold containing minoxidil. I have no real experience with most of them. I haven’t heard of this HairMax Gel (unrelated to the hair laser sold by Lexington)… and the Cipla website does not offer any insights into the product that I can hang my hat […]
Snippet from the press release: Read the full text here. It’s a press release, so it’s filled with lots of patting themselves on the back… but it sounds like the field which has been dominated by Spencer Forrest’s Toppik now has some more competition (and as a reader pointed out in the comments below, similar […]
I remember that we had some verbal interchange, but I never retracted any of my comments.
I am not sure if you are stating that you are seeing a benefit, even though your hair is falling out. If it is working for you, I am happy for you. If you can achieve the same (or better) thickening result from a product like Toppik, wouldn’t that be a cheaper solution? I know […]
I’m still getting inquiries about the LaserComb, and there’s really not much else left to say about it at this point, but I did find some new links worth sharing: Overview on technology blog Gizmodo — Hands On with the HairMax Laser Comb Parody from The Onion — FDA Approves Laser Comb Reasonable assessment on […]
I received two emails recently about the HairMax LaserComb, so I’ll combine my response into one… EMAIL 1: EMAIL 2: This came out of the FDA and this is the exact wording in the final page of the FDA letter in January 2007: Indications for Use 510(k) Number (if known): K060 305 Device Name: HairMax […]
I took the time to review their data and contrary to their protestations that there was not enough resolution in the photographs, I would challenge that statement. If they felt the photos didn’t well represent their claims, why would they bother posting them? In fact, the resolution in the photos were excellent (we looked at […]
Earlier this month, I posted an entry titled Analyzing the Results of the HairMax Laser Comb. The extensive email that I received (posted below) shows the great care that the HairMax folks went through to try to be objective. I do not doubt that objectivity was the intent, but upon reviewing the images that were […]
Ah, the HairMax LaserComb by Lexington International. It’s worth noting that lasercomb.net and hairmax.com both go to the exact same site, so the link you sent is the official site of this product. The page you sent (linked above) has 2 groups of photographs, each with multiple before/after sets. The 1st group is apparently patient […]
I first started noticing my very fine hair was thinning around 5 years ago. I’ve struggled with depression for a long time so I never did much about it, just accepted my fate I suppose. I should also note that I had a thyroidectomy in 2010 due to thyroid cancer. My mom has very, very […]
It seems like a good study but the results and conclusions from the study is plainly states: “A higher percentage of lasercomb-treated subjects reported overall improvement of hair loss condition and thickness and fullness of hair in self-assessment, though the results did not always reach statistical significance.” It means the subjects felt improvement but the […]
We’ve written briefly about the Richfeel Anagrow product before, which apparently contains plant stem cells. Unfortunately, there is no clinical science to back up their claims. You said that this company specializes in “curing hair related issues”, but there is no cure for hair loss that I know of. I can tell that you’re trying […]
For those that missed it, I analyzed their “results” photos back in 2006 — Analyzing the Results of the HairMax Laser Comb. I looked at the link you sent, but I am not willing to make the invested time to analyze it again. Is there selective circling? I don’t know. There’s nothing there that will […]
