LaserComb is a Direct Threat to Your Practice, Where You Charge Thousands of Dollars
Read your blog questioning the LaserComb. I have been using it for a year and have had substantial regrowth. I can understand why you want to sow doubt in peoples’ minds. This $575 device is a direct threat to your practice where you charge each patient thousands of dollars. Why don’t you also note that there is a 20 week return privilege?
That’s great for you! I am publishing your comments since you claim the LaserComb had value and I believe that sharing your experience with others is important. I wish I would receive more such positive comments about this type of technology and maybe your “insightful” note will get others to write about their experiences. I don’t think that you should be angry with me for voicing my opinion, as I am not angry or threatened by yours. I find it funny that some anonymous people feel they need to attack me for voicing an opinion on my own website. Unless you’re an employee with the manufacturer or investor in the product, I don’t understand why you’d be so personally connected that you think you need to defend it.
I’m trying to keep an open mind that it may work, and if I see good firsthand scientific proof that it works, my attitude can change. I have two lasers in my Los Angeles office for patient use and I’m unfortunately just not seeing any substantial growth in those patients that use it. I am not so ready to believe in a cure that may not be there and I don’t want to produce hope that is hollow. That is why I allow my surgical patients to use the laser at no charge so I can get their feedback on its value. We take photos of some laser patients periodically to note whether it is effective or not over time. Most people are ‘iffy’ about its value as they report it to me, and the pictures I have viewed are not showing much change over time. Do you know many doctors who have a $50,000 laser in their office and do not charge for its use?
I own the laser comb and am determined to use it 3x a week for one full year and will let you know if I see a difference. I also had a hair transplant and use rogain-so we will see
Please send in photos of yourself before and after of your laser comb results.
thanks
My reply was not anonymous. You are free to publish my name if you so choose. I am neither an employee, investor, nor in any other way connected to the company, except as a customer. True, this product does not work for everybody, but I don’t think the FDA would have approved this specific product as effective if it was just bunk. As a doctor, you know that FDA approval is not issued lightly.

Jay, it amazes me that no one asked, and you didn’t offer any information regarding what *other* medications you’re currently on.
I find it hard to believe you are solely depending on the laser comb. And, if you’re not, then I find it very hard to believe you have enough confidence in the product to stop taking those other medications.
Assuming you’re taking an assortment of medications, how do you know which one is actually working? Or whether any of them are working at all? How do you know it hasn’t got anything to do with the magical properties of that favorite blue t-shirt you’re always wearing?
In January of 2008, a medical doctor in Denver named James Harris recommended that I try the laser brush. My hair at that time was only thinning slightly, not noticeable to anyone but me. I began using the brush in the second week of January and continued, with complete discipline, for what’s been almost six months straight: every other day after showering, for at least fifteen minutes. The one and only other thing I use, also at Doctor Harris suggestion, is Nizoral shampoo. I’m sincere when I say to you that at month five, I began noticing many new hairs along my hairline; also, my wife says she can clearly see these same kind of hairs along the crown of my head. I don’t know for certain if it’s the Nizoral or the laser brush that’s responsible, but I do know for certain that one or both is sprouting hair.
For whatever that’s worth.
I manufacture and sell High Powered lasercombs and I tell all potential customers that Low Level laser Therapy is NOT a miracle cure for hairloss.
It will help to grow back some hair, slow or stop fallout, and make your hair more thicker, shinier and stronger.
But if you go to sites like Hairmax, X5, Leimo, etc etc..they talk about lasers like they are the best thing since sliced bread!!
The thing I love about LLLT, however, is that once you pay for the cost of the Unit, Treatments are bascially FREE. No recurring costs.
Now, the dilemma is, which device should one buy??
My opinion on that is that any laser comb that only uses a handful of 5mw lasers in it’s design is going to produce results below most people’s expectations.
You need to either get either:
1. A High Powered Lasercomb.
or
2. A Laser Helmet using high powered lasers or at least 68 or more 5mw lasers,
Both have advantages and disadvantages but both are effective.
Do your research before spending your hard earned dollars.
