Red Light Therapy Stimulates Hair Growth

Did you know that aside from working on the skin, Red Light Therapy can help your hair too?! The correct red light wavelength is just what you need to penetrate hair follicles and jump-start hair growth!

The key to hair growth success is having visible red light absorbed by the individual, living, hair follicles. Wavelengths between 630-670 nano-meters are most effective (which is just what I have to offer!!!). The absorption of the light causes a natural, biological reaction to stimulate hair growth.

Unfortunately, if the hair follicle has actually died, it cannot absorb the visible red light so success in regrowing hair also relies on how early the treatment is started. The earlier, the better. It typically takes 2 to 3 months to see significant results in red light therapy for hair regrowth - but be patient - it is worth it! (My hair is the longest, fullest, and healthiest it has ever been!)

Keep in mind that all hair loss is not created equally so you must consider the type of hair loss also. Red light hair loss therapies are recommended for individuals who have temporary hair loss due to issues such as medication side effects, stress, surgery, or other hair loss conditions, such as male pattern baldness or menopause.

One question I am often asked in regards to hair growth (regrowth) is if RLT can cause hair growth in unwanted areas. If no hair follicles are present in the areas you will be treating, then no hair will grow there. It will not thicken your facial hair.

Hair growth is just one more reason to schedule your appointment today!
