You can put styling products (pomade) to make your hair “feel” thicker. Medically, you can take Propecia (finasteride) to thicken the shaft size, but it is not a permanent solution. Herbal products and shampoos that claim hair thickening may accomplish this by adding water to the hair shaft. There is no scientific proof that Low […]

It sounds like you have developed a skin allergy to the product. This can happen. Perhaps you’re allergic to an ingredient in the Provillus, particularly if you say they changed the product before you ordered another shipment. I really don’t have any way of knowing. You can try using regular minoxidil, which is the active […]
Note: One of my favorite contributors to this site is a reader (that wishes to remain nameless) that has provided wonderful insight into areas like LLLT (hair lasers) and the FDA. I’m admittedly not an expert in everything (no matter how much I wish I was), and he’s corrected my initial thoughts about companies publishing […]
I have written extensively about the use of lasers as a hair loss treatment — and simply stated, they do not work as claimed. To tell a client they have a 95% success rate — well, it depends on how they define “success”. If only 5% of their customers ask for a full refund, perhaps […]
Oh boy. I never said I needed to be there during the research study of a product to know it was true or not. No, I wasn’t physically present at the trials of the finasteride or minoxidil, but those medications are proven to work and FDA approved. The problem with many of the products I’m […]
If what you’re describing is a cobblestone appearance (and not actual pimples), then please see this post. Without seeing you, it would be impossible for me to tell you what the problem is caused from. Dermabrasion to the scalp causes visible scarring and only benefits the doctor’s pocket, not the patients who receive it. There […]
I reached out to a reader/writer/commenter that has previously sent in some great insights about FDA trials to get his thoughts on the latest Lexington HairMax LaserComb study that was released (read the abstract of the study here). He wrote back with a great overview, and although lengthy, it’s a worthy read for those interested. […]
If this company told you they could take a hair from the back of your head and multiply it to 70,000 hairs, then transplant it as needed (and their site says without surgery?)… then they’re either from the future or someone was giving you a line of bull. My guess based on the photos on […]
I don’t think that the LaserComb would produce any harm to transplanted hairs. I doubt it’ll be “great” for them, but if you’re happy with your hair health on non-transplanted hairs, by all means…
I’ve written many times about the Laser Comb (and variations thereof), and I’m not impressed with the results. I do not think they work as claimed. Since you took Propecia for 10 years and then stopped, seeing hair loss should be expected. Restarting the medication will hopefully halt your hair loss once again, but I […]
Sorry, but recent articles and studies show the various laser combs and laser treatments for hair loss are not as good as once thought. The science I have seen is flawed. In other words, lasers do not work as promised. For those of you who spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on this and many […]
As I’ve stated many times before, I do not believe that low laser light therapy works for hair regrowth. This Lazerfish product would fall into that category.
The machine they showed looks to be the same one I had in my office for some time (and got rid of). Each hair laser maker will tell you their product is best because of various reasons, but you’re good to be skeptical. As soon as the FDA clearance (showing that it is safe, not […]
In my personal opinion, lasers do not work to regrow hair. I base this on my experience with seeing many patients who have tried all sorts of lasers (from the big ones in clinics to the handheld models), and I have not seen it work. As I’ve mentioned before, I had a medical grade laser […]
I am not a fan of this technology, but the HairMax, Rezultz, and Bosley LaserComb models are all made by the same company — Lexington International. So it is one manufacturer and likely the only difference between each is the logo and the price the reseller charges (all well over the price they’re worth, in […]
