Hair Loss Laser Treatment Information

Hair loss laser treatments are most effective if they are used in the early stages of hair loss. This treatment uses a pure red light to stimulate the blood supply to the scalp and the hair roots. As the light reaches the cells they start to repair themselves and hair starts to grow again. This is because the stimulation helps to bring oxygen and nutrients back to the scalp. The result is thicker, softer hair and you can still use your regular shampoos and conditioners. You can even continue to get your hair dyed.
