Minoxidil (Rogaine), approved as a baldness treatment in 1988, was the first truly effective treatment in the long history of remedies for hair loss. It jump-starts the follicles, making them stop resting, shed the old hair, and start growing new hairs. Finasteride (Propecia), approved by the FDA in 1997, stops the formation of DHT in the scalp, blocking testosterone's hair-thinning effects.

When you come in for the consultation, the consultant will look at your hair follicles through a microscopic camera lens and be able to tell if you are at a point where you can stop hair loss or re-grow what you have lost. Yes, women experiencing hair loss, largely from nutritional, medical or genetic causes, make up a majority of clients, followed by people suffering from scalp psoriasis. Again, women appear to seek treatment for this distressing complaint more often than men.

Yes, the use of some medications along with laser hair therapy may improve your results . Please consult with your laser hair therapist and let them know about all medications and supplements you are currently taking.

Laser therapy is effective in treating soft tissue injuries including many medical conditions, degenerative disorders, acute and chronic injuries or pain and wound healing. No one is too young or too old to receive treatment. Laser therapy is recommended for anyone who has pain due to aging or injuries, and anyone who has been or is currently involved with rehabilitation, physiotherapy, or sports medicine.

There are over 2500 research reports published documenting the effectiveness of LILT. The book "Low Level Laser Therapy: Clinical Practice and Scientific Background" is the most recent reference guide for literature documentation. The first systemic scientific research on the biological effects of low level laser was conducted by the late Professor Endre Mester of the Semmelweis Medical University in Budapest, Hungary, 1966.

NO. More than 2000 clinical studies have been conducted on the use of LILT and in all of these studies no mutational effects have ever been observed resulting from therapy with wavelengths in the red or near-infrared ranges in the doses used by laser therapy.

Laser therapy is a safe, effective, and commonly used treatment, providing optimal results in areas such as the removal of unwanted hair skin rejuvenation, wrinkle reduction, leg veins, or tattoos; and the treatment of acne. Lasers work by delivering an intense beam of light that is absorbed by the skin. This light is converted to heat and is absorbed by the cells being targeted, while leaving the surrounding tissue unaffected.

Yes! Laser hair therapy has been proven safe in over 2,500 scientific and medical papers over thirty years of research. Low level laser devices as tested by an FDA approved testing center has been proven 100% safer and meeting or exceeding all standards for this type of laser. The energy produced by the photons does not have the thermal component to cause thermal injury to either the user or operator.

Laser therapy is the use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode (250 milliwatts or less) or an array of high intensity super luminous diodes (providing total optical power in the 1000-2000 milliwatt range). Conditions treated include musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions and wounds.

Laser Therapy or "photobiomodulation", is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near infrared) to create therapeutic effects. These effects include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling. Laser therapy adds energy to living systems. While we are able to explain many of its molecular and biochemical effects, it also adds energy at atomic and subatomic levels.

Laser hair removal is now being utilized for mass hair removal from large areas of the body. Lasers target pigment (darker color) in the hair follicles. Laser does not work on blonde, red or white hairs. Several lasers have been granted clearance by the United States Food and Drug Administration for "permanent reduction", proving to be very effective for removing hair from areas of the human body that have been considered impractical because of their size by conventional methods.

Lasers have been used for hair removal since the mid 1990's. They are safe in the hands of trained technicians but have several short comings: Lasers work well only when a hair is in the anagen, (growing) phase. On some parts of the body, less than 50% of the hairs are in the growing phase.

A:The laser emits a beam of light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle. The laser is pulsed, or turned on, for only a fraction of a second and is then absorbed by the hair follicles, stopping their growth, resulting in quick, safe and effective hair removal.

Yes, the laser we use for hair removal at Leesburg Laser Center has been given FDA approval for the claim of “Permanent Hair Reduction”. Reduction is defined as 85% less hair. The hair that you will be left with after a series of laser hair removal treatments will be hair that is too fine and light in color to be effected by the laser hair removal treatment. What you are experiencing is called the “shedding phase” of laser hair removal.

We can do laser hair removal just about anywhere on the body. The most common areas for women are the upper lip, chin, eyebrows and bikini line. Men like to do hair removal at the back and shoulders, front of the neck (common place for ingrown hairs) as well as the glabella (space between the eyebrows). We do arms, legs, toes, underarms and more!

Laser hair removal is fast, convenient, and has minimal side effects. It can save you up to 10 minutes a day just by skipping the full leg shave. Think of the money you have spent on razors, shaving creams, bleaching creams and eyebrow waxes. We offer solutions to expensive as well as time-consuming hair grooming.

Both men and women can seek laser hair removal. However, it does not work equally well for all people. Those with pale skin and dark coarse hair tend to make the best candidates. Not all laser hair removal systems perform the same on all skin and hair types. Alexandrite long pulse and diode types of lasers work best on light-colored skin, while Nd:YAG long pulse lasers are better and safer on darker skin (skin types IV and darker).

One of the benefits of laser hair removal is that it is virtually painless, especially compared with waxing or electrolysis. For the occasional patient who experiences discomfort with the LightSheer Laser Hair Removal, the Doctor prescribes a Novocain type of topical cream, which should be applied 1 hour prior to treatment. This helps minimize discomfort. The LightSheer has a cooling tip, which also cools your skin during treatment.
