Hair Restoration Therapy
Hair loss is a condition of gradual thinning and recession of hair on the head. Hair loss has long been known as a classic sign of aging. While typically associated with older men, hair loss can affect both men and women of all ages. Women and young adults typically feel the most self conscious about hair loss, and therefore are more likely to seek medical treatment. Regardless, hair loss can be embarrassing and uncomfortable for anyone afflicted with it.
Hair loss and hair thinning is caused primarily by the chemical DHT. DHT also known as Dihydrotestosterone is a biologically active metabolite of testosterone found in hair follicles. DHT is the cause of 95% of all hair loss in men. It reduces the hair follicle by shortening the growth (anagen) phase and lengthening the resting (telogen) phase. Due to the shortening of the anagen phase, hair follicles become smaller and stunted, lending to the appearance of baldness. For women, Hair loss is more complicated and while DHT is still a large factor, explanations are more varied.
There are several methods to treat hairloss, namely Minoxidil application (rogaine), hair transplant surgery, and laser hair treatment. Minoxidil typically does not work for all patients, and some seek other methods of hair restoration. Hair transplant surgery is invasive and expensive, and typically requires donor hair from another location on the body. Laser hair treatment is the preferred method of hair restoration at Hair Restore & More.
At Hair Restore & More, there is no surgery involved. We simply offer a product line to use at home and a treatment program involving a series of sessions of therapeutic low light level lasers that cover your scalp. The procedure is non-invasive, painless, and requires no surgery. You will see a reduction or slowing of your hair loss over weeks.
