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.
