LASER HAIR TREATMENT
What is Low Level Laser Therapy? Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the cosmetic treatment of hair loss, thinning hair and scalp problems.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the cosmetic treatment of hair loss, thinning hair and scalp problems. LLLT has been tested for effectiveness and safety for over 30 years all around the world. Although we offer cosmetic laser treatments, several medical devices have now cleared the US FDA.
The LLLT non-surgical cosmetic treatments utilize a device containing therapeutic soft low light level lasers. LLLT delivers light energy directly from laser diodes covering your head. LLLT functions on the same scientific principle, as that of photo bio-stimulation; laser light stimulates cell metabolism and helps damaged cells to repair themselves. This breakthrough technology has recently been featured on national newscasts across the country. Physicians are praising this new technology as an effective treatment of hair loss, when used in conjunction with proper scalp and hair hygiene products, such as New Generation Hair Center’s Ultimate Hair Nutritional, the most potent natural DHT inhibitor and Restim +, a 5% Minoxidil with 11 topical DHT blockers.

Now the latest study released at the ISHRS Convention in Amsterdam Netherlands* 2009 showed:
- 100 % of the subjects saw an increase in hair growth
- 97% increased hair count equal to or greater than 20%
- 77% of the subjects increase of greater than or equal to 51%
- Study presented by Dr. Grant Koher called Effect of Laser Bio-stimulation In the Treatment of Female Pattern Hair Loss
- Dr. Martin Unger conducted a study which showed a 94.4% increase in hair!
- A European study showed 100% retention of hairs and a 20% improvement in thickness & density of hair follicles using Laser Bio-Stimulation**.
- Long term international and recent clinical trials with the laser suggest many benefits from laser hair treatments.

How Lasers became a standard in hair loss therapy:
The laser was first used in Eastern Europe about 25 years ago to speed up the healing process of diseased individuals. Since the late 1700s, scientific studies have shown that sunlight, or the lack of it, definitely affects our body’s biochemistry.
Light also affects our hair, including how fast it grows. We have all experienced how our hair grows quicker during the summer, and this increased growth is due to the improved blood supply to the air follicles stimulated by the red light in sunlight .A laser produces light measured at a wavelength of nM-nanometers typical between 638.2 nM and 670 nM- a pure wave-length at the peak of red light in the visible light spectrum.
Low Level Laser Therapy light provides the essential boost of pure red light at a precisely the right frequency to revitalize and repair hair, yet utilizing a soft laser that uses less energy than a 40-watt light bulb.
Although some lasers vary in the strength of each diode (normally 4.9 mw) generally the more laser diodes a person is sitting under during each treatment will provide better results.
Therapy Schedules
Optimum results with New Generation Hair Center’s treatment programs are achieved through a consistent schedule. It takes time for the body to respond and convert energy. One full year of treatment is recommended, according to the following guidelines.
- 2 per week/ 2 months (8 weeks)
- 1 x per week/ 4 months (16 weeks)
- 1 x every other week/ 6 months (28 weeks)
Low Level Laser Therapy is a pain-free, proven method to promote and maintain beautiful hair. We use the top of the line IIIA cosmetic lasers. All Clinic type lasers currently used by New Generation Hair Center are for cosmetic use and are not cleared as medical devices.
