Let’s talk laser.

Updated: Feb 3, 2022

What laser treatment does:


Low-level laser therapy — also referred to as red light therapy and cold laser therapy — irradiates photons into scalp tissues. These photons are absorbed by weak cells to encourage hair growth.


It’s widely accepted that the procedure is safe, tolerable, and less invasive than hair transplant surgery.


The theory:


The theory of laser treatment for hair loss is that the low-dose laser treatments invigorate circulation and stimulation that encourages hair follicles to grow hair.


The results:


Because the results of laser therapy are inconsistent, the conclusion of the medical community seems to be that it appears to work for some people, but not for others.


More research is needed, but some studies have yielded encouraging results:


According to a 2014 study Trusted Source, low-level laser therapy appeared to be safe and effective for hair growth in both men and women.

A 2013 study Trusted Source of 41 males ages 18 to 48 found that laser hair treatment provided a 39 percent increase in hair growth over a period of 16 weeks.
