Is your hair falling out daily?
Since the average person loses 50 to 100 hairs per day, minor hair fall is not a cause for concern. But sometimes it can become a cause for alarm, especially when the hair loss increases substantially with no warning.
Whether your hair is showing signs of significant thinning or is still in the early stages there are quite a few options available like hair transplant surgery, LLLT, PRP, and mesotherapy, to stop hair loss and encourage hair growth.
Going beyond the normal daily hair fall and hereditary issues, an increase in hair fall is generally caused by one or more of the following:
Excessive or improper use of styling products that can cause weathering or hair breakage such as perms, dyes, gels, relaxers, or sprays.
Shampooing hair too much, combing or brushing it too hard, or pulling it out.
Hairstyles that pull on the hair, like braids and ponytails.
A variety of diseases or conditions, including thyroid disease, lichen planopilaris (a type of permanent hair loss that occurs when the skin disease lichen planus affects areas of skin with hair), alopecia areata (a type of hair loss that affects all ages, causes hair to fall out in round patches), ringworm of the scalp (a contagious fungal infection most common in children), etc.
Inadequate protein or iron in the diet, or eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia.
Prescription drugs such as blood thinners, high-dose vitamin A, and medicines for arthritis, depression, gout, heart problems, and high blood pressure.
Childbirth or use of birth control pills.
Medical conditions such as major surgery, a high fever or severe infection, stress, or even the flu.
Hormonal imbalances, especially in women.
Cancer treatments like radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
Up until recently, people suffering from hair loss would try many different hair restoration methods, none of which have been proven effective. Topical creams, oral/prescription-based medications, injectable cortisone or hormonal medications, and scalp reduction surgery were all used to help men with male pattern baldness and women with thinning hair.
Some of these methods were surgical procedures that could leave scars while others required hair loss sufferers to take drugs that could produce even more negative side effects.
But now, hair loss sufferers have other options.
You may be surprised to learn that there’s a new solution on the market for restoring your hair without surgery or pills: Low Level Laser Therapy. This treatment is more effective and efficient than ever before, due largely in part to recent advancements made with this innovative technology!
Low level laser therapy (or LLLT) is a pain-free treatment that uses clinical-strength light to stimulate hair follicles and induce regrowth. It's been proven effective for both men and women, giving them thicker fuller locks!
Low level laser therapy (also referred to as “red light therapy” and “cold laser therapy”) irradiates photons into scalp tissues, which is absorbed by weak cells to encourage hair growth.
LLLT devices can be Comb Devices, Cap and Helmet Devices, Office Devices.
Dr. Vasant Gholave, founder of Arra Aesthetics, Pune, has listed the criteria for an eligible candidate for LLLT treatment. You are an ideal candidate for low level laser therapy for hair loss management if you:
Are an overall healthy person with signs of hair loss, balding, or hair thinning.
Want a non-surgical solution for hair loss.
During the consultation, Dr. Vasant Gholave, founder of Arra Aesthetics, Pune, will ask you about your medical history, lifestyle, and diet to determine the cause of the hair loss. He'll also want to know if there are any stressful situations or emotional distress in recent months that might have caused the hair loss.
Dr. Vasant Gholave will examine you physically, and based on his examination and the possible causes of hair loss he will recommend a treatment plan for you. He will discuss your desires with you and ensure that you have realistic expectations from the treatment. He will answer all your concerns and draw up a schedule for the treatment.
The laser device to be utilized for low level laser therapy depends on the cause of hair loss.
For example, for people suffering from alopecia (an autoimmune disorder that causes hair to fall out), the device will be selected based on the type of alopecia.
Fractional Lasers: Fractional laser devices like Erbium-Glass laser, Co2 laser, and thulium laser can be used to treat androgenetic alopecia.
Excimer Laser: The 308 nm excimer laser may be used to treat alopecia areata (a type of hair loss that affects all ages, causes hair to fall out in round patches), lichen planopilaris (a type of permanent hair loss that occurs when the skin disease lichen planus affects areas of skin with hair), and frontal fibrosing alopecia or FFA (a form of lichen planopilaris with slow progressive hair loss and scarring on the scalp by the forehead).
Pulsed Devices: The 904 nm pulsed diode laser is another promising treatment modality for alopecia areata.
At Arra Aesthetics, Pune, we use the RecoSMA Laser, the latest technology developed by LINLINE Medical Systems for LLLT. With 2940nm wavelength and having regenerative potential, RecoSMA gives good results for hair regrowth.
During LLLT, the patient sits under the selected laser device which emits light of a specific wavelength. This frequency of light penetrates into the scalp and stimulates the hair follicles to encourage hair growth.
LLLT is usually performed in multiple sessions. Each session can take up to 20 to 30 minutes. LLLT is a safe, tolerable, and less invasive alternative to hair transplant surgery.
There are many advantages to low level laser therapy, including:
It’s painless
It’s non-invasive
It increases hair strength
There are no side effects
