What is Vitiligo and how it’s treated?

Vitiligo is a condition that causes the skin to lose its color.  It affects between 0.2 percent and 1 percent of people around the world. It can occur in people of any race. It’s most noticeable, though, among people with dark skin, because the contrast between the normal skin tone and the white patches that have been affected by vitiligo is more pronounced. People with vitiligo experience color loss in various areas of exposed skin. Some may experience the discoloration in the mouth, in the hair on the scalp, or in their eyelashes or eyebrows.

Causes of Vitiligo: The cause of Vitiligo is not known. Vitiligo might be an immune system sickness. These diseases happen immune system mistakenly attacks some part of your own body. In vitiligo, the resistant system may destroy the melanocytes in the skin. Vitiligo is photosensitive; patients should avoid exposing the skin to direct sunlight for a prolonged period. It is likewise conceivable that at least one gene may make a person more prone to get the disorder.  

Symptoms of Vitiligo: White spots on the skin are the principal indication of vitiligo. These spots are more normal in areas where the skin is exposed to the sun. Initially, the vitiligo starts as a simple spot, a little paler than the rest of the skin. But gradually, as time passes, this spot will become much paler until it becomes white.
The spots might be on the hands, feet, arms, face, and lips. Other common areas for white patches are: 
  • The armpits and groin (where the leg meets the body) 
  • Around the mouth
  • Eyes

  • Navel
  • Genitals
  • Rectal areas.

What is Low Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) for hair loss?

There’s been a lot of buzzes recently about Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) for hair loss.  There are plenty of claims that it can produce miraculous results. That it can stop hair loss in its tracks. Help you regrow hair. That it gives you thicker, amazingly healthier hair. Low-level laser light is compressed light of a wavelength from the cold, red part of the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation.

It is different from natural light in that it is one precise color; it is coherent (it travels in a straight line), monochromatic (a single wavelength) and columnated (it concentrates its beam in a defined location or spot). These properties allow laser light to penetrate with no heating effect, no damage and no known side effects.  

What is LLLT: LLLT is a modern non-surgical hair loss treatment that uses laser light to stimulate cell growth and supercharge hair follicles. It helps to combat hair loss and improve the volume and appearance of hair. The therapy is painless and has no known side effects.

LLLT has been approved by the FDA as a hair loss treatment for both men and women.  It is mainly used to treat androgenetic alopecia or what’s often referred to as male or female pattern baldness.

Types of lasers:
  • High power 
  • Low power
There are two types of lasers:

High power lasers are used to cut through tissue and give off heat.

Low-level laser, on the other hand, does not give off heat and uses photo energy.

For many years, leading hair restoration clinics and salons around the world have been using Transform Technologies ‘cold-beam’ laser technology for individuals suffering from problem hair conditions. It is a Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) that works by increasing blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles, encouraging hair volume and healthier hair. The unique laser light penetrates into the scalp tissue where it stimulates the microcirculation and improves cellular metabolism and protein synthesis.

Is Low-Level Laser Hair Therapy Safe?

Low-level laser hair therapy meets all international safety standards and legislative specifications of a “non-significant risk” product so its safe.  The energy produced by the photons does not have the thermal component to cause thermal injuries to users or operators. There have been no side effects of the treatment reported and to give you an idea to what extent our treatment method has been used.
