• Considering A LaserCap? Some Docs Say The Thing Might Actually Work!

  In Archives, Hair Loss Treatments / By tbtshow / 29 May 2014

  Low level laser light therapy (LLLT) as an effective treatment for hair loss has been the topic of some pretty heated debates on TBT over the years. While LLLT is still not recognized by The American Hair Loss Association as an effective treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia, many respected experts in the field believe that certain devices on the market can actually help hair loss sufferers.

  Clinical studies have shown that LLLT has been able to stimulate hair growth in mice with chemotherapy-induced alopecia, however the data for human hair growth might be considered by some as being more subjective. With that said, there does seem to be growing anecdotal evidence that these laser devices might just be doing something.

  Check out Spencer Kobren and Alan J. Bauman, M.D., discussing the reality of LLLT therapy for hair loss and Dr. B’s recent appearance on The Doctors.

  If you’re considering hair transplant surgery and think that you’ve got it all figured out, step back and think again. Spencer Kobren discusses the reality of basing your decisions to undergo hair transplant surgery on the advice of anonymous posters on the internet and points to some major concerns about how the field is “evolving.” Remember, “state-of-the- art” is only state-of-the-art in the right hands! If you don’t truly understand the entire scope of all hair transplant options being offered today, as well as their possible pitfalls, surgery may not be for you.
