(LLLT) has been used in Europe for over thirty years and has been the subject of numerous studies with over 2,500 scientific papers published worldwide. There are no reported side effects to LLLT treatments which are painless, and non-toxic. |

Until recently, LLLT has been relatively underutilized in North America. HLCC was one of a few companies using laser for 15 years. Today, however, with an FDA approval for a hand held laser, there is increasing awareness and acceptance of low level laser among practitioners. |
International practitioners are realizing the benefits of LLLT more than ever before, while North American consumers are increasingly interested in alternative treatments. The LLLT used in the Hand Held Laser and Clinic Lasers is non-invasive and without any known side effects.
What Is Low Level Laser?Low Level Laser Therapy and, lately, Light Therapy are commonly abbreviated as LLLT. The laser energy produced by the Laser is within the accepted level of LLLT. The Laser uses a laser diode operating in the red portion of the visible color spectrum. Laser energy is different from natural light in several ways. It is monochromatic, which means all the energy is essentially one wavelength or color whereas a light bulb produces a broad spectrum of light and energy waves. Laser energy is also collimated which means it is a tight beam of light energy that spreads or diverges only a little at great distances while a light bulb loses its brightness very quickly with distance. What to look for in Hair Loss Laser?Clinic Lasers - You should seek laser with at least 90 laser diodes and even better ones with 107, 110, 135 laser diodes. Hand Held Lasers - At least 5 4.9 to 5 mw laser diodes don't settle for 2.5 to 3mw laser diodes in some hand held lasers. If the company will not tell you they are hiding something. Combo treatment is the best- Seek companies that use both laser and Proven DHT blockers (look for 8 DHT blocker in it), Improved Minoxidil or a topical growth formula with a lot of topical Saw Palmetto the best topical DHT blocker (even better if it has 3-6 topicals DHT blockers. Look for a SLS/DEA free shampoo Sodium Laurel Sulfate or SLS can reflex away laser light and make the laser treatment not as effective. High Power Lasers vs. Low Level LasersThere are two types of lasers: high power and low power. High power lasers are used to cut through tissue and give off heat. Low level lasers on the other hand do not give off heat and use photo energy. |
