All About New LaseMD Hair Loss Treatments
Better U Medical Spa in Englewood NJ is proud to announce the addition of state-of-the-art LaseMD laser hair loss treatments to our practice. This cutting edge new laser hair restoration procedure harnesses the power of thermal energy to naturally rejuvenate hair follicles, stopping hair loss and re-growing thicker, fuller, stronger hair.
In this article Englewood, NJ board certified physician Dr. Hela Gor, MD answers patients’ frequently asked questions about the innovative LaseMD laser hair restoration technology.
How does LaseMD laser hair loss treatment work?
LaseMD laser hair loss treatment uses a non-ablative fractional thulium laser to create “microchannels” that penetrate deep into the scalp. A proprietary KeraLase KeraFactor® serum is then massaged into the scalp, which is absorbed into the micro-channels and delivered to damaged or dormant hair follicles.
The KeraLase serum contains “bio-identical” synthetic versions of the body’s growth factors and proteins which are needed to regrow hair. The growth factors and proteins rejuvenate damaged hair follicles and stimulate increased blood supply to the dormant hair follicles. This triggers natural hair regrowth, in addition to increasing the thickness of the individual hair shafts being produced.
Unlike other hair loss treatments that sit on top of the scalp, the KeraFactor serum travels down the laser-created channels to reach the root. And, unlike other hair restoration products that only are effective during the hair follicles growth phase, KeraFactor affects all 4 stages of the hair life cycle – so it begins working to regenerate the hair follicle immediately.
Is LaseMD laser hair loss treatment better than PRP hair restoration?
The KeraLase serum actually contains potent peptides that are up to a 1000X more concentrated than those found in PRP. This means KeraLase contains a more powerful mix of the growth factors that specifically stimulate hair regrowth, making it more effective than PRP. Additionally, with LaseMD there is no blood drawing like there is with PRP – and no need for injections, microneedling or anesthetic.
While PRP hair restoration treatments can be highly effective for some people, LaseMD laser + KeraLase serum may be more effective for others. Each person’s type and cause of hair loss is different, and Dr. Gor will work with you to find the most effective treatment for your specific hair restoration needs.
How many LaseMD laser hair loss treatments will I need?
This quick, comfortable hair loss treatment is typically recommended to be performed once every 2 weeks, for a total of 6 treatments. By the time the course of treatment is completed in 12 weeks, most patients should see a marked improvement in hair thickness and fullness.
Who is a good candidate for LaseMD laser hair loss treatment?
At our Englewood, NJ medical spa, we have found that both men and women alike benefit from LaseMD Skin laser hair loss treatment. It is also safe for all skin types, tones and colors – even darker skin.
LaseMD laser hair restoration has proven effective for restoring hair loss due to male and female pattern baldness (“androgenic alopecia” ”) which is the most common type of hair loss affecting both men and women. It has also shown success in treating hair loss due to telogen effluvium, traction alopecia and hair loss due to certain hormonal changes and medical conditions.
Because it is an affordable and comfortable treatment (with no anesthetic needed, and no downtime) it is also an excellent alternative for people who do not want to undergo painful expensive hair transplant surgery.
And because it is natural procedure, it is ideal for patients or who are unwilling or unable to risk the side effects of harsh chemicals such as Rogaine (Minoxidil) or dangerous medications like Propecia.
Does LaseMD hair loss treatment hurt?
LaseMD Skin hair loss treatment is a relatively comfortable process, mild enough to be performed without anesthesia. For about an hour or two after their LaseMD Skin Rejuvenation treatment, patients may experience what has been described as a mild sun burn sensation. Applying an ice pack wrapped in dry, sterile gauze should provide sufficient relief.
And, despite the skin of the treatment area being potentially a little bit red or tender for a few hours, LaseMD laser hair removal patients do not experience any downtime or recovery period. Many of our patients even return to work as soon as they leave our Englewood, NJ medical spa.
