Medical disclaimer

This site is for information only and isn't medical advice. See a doctor or dermatologist about hair loss.

The devices discussed here are FDA-cleared, not FDA-approved, to treat androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) in adults. They are not intended for hair loss from other causes, including thyroid disease, nutritional deficiency, alopecia areata, scarring alopecias or medication side effects. Sudden, patchy or painful hair loss should be assessed by a clinician.

Results from low-level laser therapy vary from person to person, take months of consistent use, and are not guaranteed. Nothing on this site should be read as a promise of regrowth.

Talk to a doctor before using a laser device if you have a light-sensitive condition, take light-sensitising medication, are pregnant, or plan to combine the device with minoxidil, finasteride or any other treatment.
