Laser v/s LED:

[Dr. A s Clinic]

Beware and do in-depth research before choosing a €œso called € laser device.
LASER (wave length 650 nm, 5 mw) has been approved for safety as well as efficacy. However, patients wonder about difference in price of various laser devices. That is happening because some companies are passing off cheap LED lights.
e.g. if there is a helmet with 80 lasers.

To cut cost, some companies may install e.g. 60 LED & 20 lasers and sell at a fraction of cost.

LEDs are for Diwali/Christmas decorations. Do not fool people.

Those wishing to read the medical studies proving the laser €™s efficacy may go through the studies carried out below.

Study 1. The treatment of androgenetic alopecia with LLLT devices2

Study 2: Low-Level Laser (Light) Therapy (LLLT) for Treatment of Hair Loss

Study 3: MECHANISMS OF LOW LEVEL LIGHT THERAPY

Study 4 : A Novel Approach to Treating Androgenetic Alopecia in Females With Low Level Laser Therapy

I tried this laser light therapy treatment quite a few times. I only noticed healing benefits from it. As far as hair growth, I didn't see any benefits from it.

That's my frank and unbiased assessment.

You need to correct your statement about "approval". No laser hair device has been approved by the FDA for anything and certainly not for efficacy. Devices such as this are cleared for safety as they are not significantly different than devices that came before the FDA was granted authority of medical devices in the early 1970's. However, they have shown to be effective for some but to say they are approved by the US government for effectiveness is flat out wrong.

Thank you for your honest opinion.
Which laser are you using?
I hope you are not using the one with a mixture of normal LEDs and few laser diodes.
Please go through the links in our previous post of the studies which shows that FDA has approved laser saying it TREATS HAIRLOSS AND PROMOTES HAIR GROWTH.
