Laser hair therapy is suitable and effective for men and women struggling with hair loss who wish to regrow new hair or improve hair strength, thickness, and volume. It also helps improve scalp health.

Side effects after laser hair therapy are rare but may include:

• Redness
• Crust formation
• Changes in scalp colour
• Risk of scalp infection
• Eye injury

Laser therapy uses a non-ablative laser, usually in the SMOOTH mode. The treatment is, therefore, pain-free and does not require anaesthesia or cooling afterwards. Our patients are extremely comfortable throughout the treatment duration.

Most people require 6 to 7 sessions for visible results following a laser hair stimulation procedure. One session is required every 14 days. You may also need booster or maintenance sessions every six months after treatment.

Each laser hair therapy session lasts around 30 minutes.

Laser therapy is contraindicated in the following conditions:

• Scalp infections
• Injuries and inflammation of the scalp
• Use of validating drugs, blood thinners, and oral retinoids (in the past six months)
• Use of photosensitising medications/supplements
• Use of other forms of steroids
• Active autoimmune diseases
• Predisposition to keloid and hypertrophic scars
• Active viral infections like HIV, hepatitis
• Active neoplastic disease
• Pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Epilepsy

Professional laser therapy is an effective treatment option for men and women experiencing hair thinning, receding hairline and male and female baldness. It has a success rate of over 95%, and you will begin to see results after six weeks.

Since there aren’t many human studies to prove its safety in pregnancy, laser hair removal is preferably not done .
