Update: We are constantly asked about the effects of Low Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) for hair loss. A man who used the laser on our office showed me the impact of the laser on his hair with before and after pictures. He went to a company called Laser Hair Solutions, which uses a proprietary laser […]

It sounds like you’re way better off than me. I’m 31 and I’m pretty much a diffuse NW5 right now, and exactly 1 year ago I was pretty much a NW2 with some diffuse. I had massive hair loss over the course of one year. The amount of hairs I was losing every day when […]
I’d have a recommended list as follows: Dutasteride finasteride minox LLLT Nizoral microneedling (I have this so low due to safety concerns about people doing this at home alone. Most derm’s don’t recommend more than 0.25mm for home usage) Extras (may or may not help): peppermint oil, rosemary oil saw palmetto scalp massage RU CB […]
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3944668/#!po=14.7887 I have read the article. There is a great deal of speculation about the use of light therapy in certain areas, like graft growth after hair transplants. I know that grafts grow after a hair transplant when the surgery is done correctly and can’t be accelerated by using such a modality. The author speculated on the […]
LLLT is an option that really does not do much although because so many people use it and are vested in the effort, the reports are not very accurate. I studied patients with LLLT treatments in two forms. The first was an expensive LLLT machine which I offered at no charge to my patients but […]
Minoxidil is known to cause shedding in the initial use. It is not comparable to trauma. The hair should come back and start reversing from the short term loss within 2 or so months. The various acids in the 82M or other similar medications generally cause the scalp irritation, dryness and flaking. The basic theory […]
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 […]
The following is just my personal opinion. In my practice I have offered lasers and have carried out limited trials on various lasers offered. I got these lasers free so I tested them on my patients and did not charge them for these treatments. I saw no consistent benefits from the lasers in most of […]
Snippet from the article: The article continues… Read the rest — The helmet that can cure BALDNESS (allegedly): $800 headgear uses lasers on the scalp to stimulate hair growth and thickness I’m going to go with Dr. Farjo on this one — I’m skeptical until I see actual proof, as the claims that it can […]
Conclusion from the study: Read the rest — Efficacy and Safety of a Low-level Laser Device in the Treatment of Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss I have not been a fan of this modality, though I am now inclined to be more open minded in using this after reading the study published in the […]
While you may say your case is “crazy”, there are many men in your similar predicament. Dr. Pak and I have seen and treated many men in your similar situation with a combination of a hair transplant, scar reduction, and SMP. I really cannot advise you on your specific options without examining you in person. […]
The results will not be analyzed for a full year from the time the study was started. I expect to see results from the study in the summer of 2014.
The 3 month visits are just starting, so we do not have an update yet. Sorry!
The above text was written to my private email and is a good overview of the PRP topic, so I have included it in our blog. I do not engage in using PRP and ACell for hair growth or in hair transplantation. We do use on occasion ACell with the patients permission for donor wound […]
