FAQ about Laser Hair Re-growth

FAQ about Laser Hair Re-growth | Calabasas | Encino | Medical SpaAdvanced laser treatments from a qualified med spa are an effective way to achieve hair re-growth for people suffering from hair loss. Rejuvenate Medical Spa is a leading provider of laser hair treatments to patients in Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, CA, and surrounding locations. Low Level Laser Hair Therapy (LLLT) or “Cool Laser” involves the use of a series of laser diodes to expose the affected areas of the scalp to cool laser energy. Unlike traditional lasers, this treatment does not produce heat, causes no discomfort or side effects, and stimulates cellular metabolism and protein synthesis for hair re-growth.  

What is the Difference between Cosmetic and Medical Lasers?

A number of cosmetic ‘cool’ lasers are available today, but these are not approved for hair re-growth and do not require medical supervision. Medical lasers, on the other hand, involve a medical procedure performed under medical supervision at a qualified med spa and by prescription only.  

How does the Laser Hair Re-growth Treatment Work?

In case of LLLT, the controlled pulses of laser are carefully delivered into the scalp tissue at a depth of a few millimeters. The deeper cell structures absorb the laser energy, positively impacting the targeted hair follicles.  

Am I a Profound Candidate for LLLT?

Men and women in the early stages of hair loss as well as women who experience hair thinning can benefit from LLLT hair re-growth. If the hair loss in men is more than five or six years, it may not be ideally treated with LLLT.  

When will the Results become Visible?

Hair loss will start reducing typically within the first two to three weeks after about five or six treatment sessions. Hair re-growth will start occurring in about five to six weeks after 10 to 12 treatments. Rejuvenate Medical Spa receives patients from Encino, Sherman Oaks, San Fernando, Calabasas, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, CA, and nearby areas for laser hair re-growth.  

What are the Clinical Trial Results presented before the FDA?

An approved clinical trial was conducted with results reviewed in three phases. After the first phase of 20 treatments, 92 percent of the patients showed a hair count increase of at least 10 percent, with 60 percent reporting an increase of at least 30 percent.  

What is the Duration of the Treatment Process?

A single treatment session with LLLT will take about 20 minutes. While partial treatment programs are available, the maximum benefits of laser hair re-growth can be achieved with a treatment program of about one year. It will include about 70 treatment sessions.  

How much will the Treatment Cost? 

The monetary amount will vary according to the individual diagnosis and treatment. Affordability and flexibility of payments is possible with full and partial programs and various health care financing options.  

Will it be Painful?

LLLT for hair re-growth causes little to no sensation during the procedure. This cool laser therapy is completely comfortable for most patients.  

What are the Risks Involved?

LLLT is completely safe and meets all international safety standards and specifications of a “non-significant risk” product.
