Laser Comb - Clinical Studies

HairCombFAQ | HairComb 

Many long-term clinical research programs at laser institutes internationally have shown that bio-stimulation of 'cold-beam', low-level laser gives numerous positive effects to the skin and hair. 

The LaserComb bathes your hair root with a nourishing light and is designed to energize your hair.

Light is energy. Living cells "like" light and your hair is no different. The most common example of light converting into chemical energy is photosynthesis, where plants are fed via light converted into chemical energy.

Scientific studies on cell cultures have shown that laser penetrates into soft tissue and increases the action of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a molecule that is a major carrier of energy from one reaction site to another in all living cells.

According to the eminent scientist Popp*. living cells actually give out ultra-weak photons (light) with a coherence characteristic to laser.

He theorised that soft tissue and fluids in our bodies actually vibrate! And they do this within a frequency range similar to that of low-level laser. Popp postulated that "sick" cells are "light-starved" and when irradiated with low level laser in the correct frequency range they become "light-restored" and healthy.

Another of many scientific theories* is that cells are largely dependant for healthy function on an exchange of energy and 'information' with surrounding cells.

This is achieved via individual wave systems by which cells 'communicate' through inter-connective plasma – which is affected by low level laser working at quantum level.

Low Level Laser

About

Low Level Laser has been used for numerous conditions in Europe for over thirty years and has been the subject of over 2,500 scientific papers, published worldwide. There are no reported side effects to the treatment which is painless, and non-toxic.

Until recently, laser treatment has been relatively underutilized in North America. Today, however, there is increasing awareness and acceptance of low level laser among practitioners.

International practitioners are realizing the benefits of laser therapy more than ever before, while North American consumers are increasingly willing to try alternative treatments. Low level laser used in the HairMax LaserComb is non-invasive and without any known side effects.

What Is Low Level Laser Light?

Low level laser light is compressed light of a wavelength from the cold, red part of the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation.

It is different from natural light in that it is one precise color; it is coherent (it travels in a straight line), monochromatic (a single wavelength) and columnated (it concentrates its beam in a defined location or spot). These properties allow laser light to penetrate  with no heating effect, no damage and no known side effects.

High Power Lasers vs. Low Level Laser

There are two types of lasers: high power and low power. High power lasers are used to cut through tissue and give off heat. Low level laser on the other hand does not give off heat and uses photo energy.

The FDA and HairMax LaserComb

The laser used in Lexington International’s HairMax LaserComb is the result of 15 years of use and research. The HairMax LaserComb complies with USA FDA CDRH laser product safety standards.

This means we can ethically state benefits such as healthier, fuller, shinier and stronger hair. A submission for FDA medical approval as a hair growth product was in the planning stage for some time.

Now a clinical trial is being conducted and we are confident that the data will demonstrate to the FDA valid medical effects of the HairMax LaserComb.
