Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also called cold laser therapy, red light therapy, is a non-invasive treatment that uses light to help improve hair growth. Unlike other laser treatments that use high-intensity light to cut or destroy tissue, LLLT employs low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to deliver therapeutic benefits. In the context of hair loss treatments, LLLT aims to revitalise hair follicles and promote hair growth and regrowth.

How Does LLLT Work for Hair Loss?

When your scalp is treated with Low Level Laser Therapy, the light helps your hair follicles absorb energy. This energy boosts the hair follicles, helping them work better. The process encourages hair growth and can slow down hair loss.

Benefits of LLLT for Hair Loss

Low Level Laser Therapy offers several benefits for people experiencing hair loss. Here are some of the key advantages:

• Improves blood flow to the scalp, helping nourish hair follicles.
• Reduces inflammation, creating a healthier environment for hair growth.
• Keeps hair in the growth phase longer, which promotes fuller, thicker hair.
• Increases hair count in men and women with androgenetic alopecia, as found in a 2014 study.
• Promotes thicker hair shafts and increases overall hair density and diameter, as shown in a 2021 study.
• Non-surgical and comfortable option for treating hair loss, with minimal side effects, as confirmed by scientific reviews.

Does LLLT work for all types of hair loss?

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is most effective for treating androgenetic alopecia in men and androgenetic alopecia in men and women, the most common type of hair loss. However, it may not be as effective for other types of hair loss, such as those caused by stress or certain hairstyles. Results can vary depending on the individual.

Does LLLT actually stop hair loss or regrow hair?

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) can reduce hair shedding and help regrow hair, but it may not completely stop hair loss. If stress or other factors are causing your hair loss, these need to be addressed alongside LLLT. Combining LLLT with other treatments, like our specially formulated V Hair Grow ampoule, can improve your chances of success.
