Question: What treatments are there for treating thinning hair?
Answer: Thinning hair can be caused by a number of reasons; the good news is, there is help and there are remedies you can incorporate in your daily routine that can help your hair grow back. Yes, I mean DAILY routine. Four out of six remedies that I will suggest will need to be applied on a daily bases. |

Supplements: The first option for treating thinning hair is vitamins and supplements. Biotin should be ingested at a 5,000mg daily dose if you’re anemic or a vegetarian, taking iron will help. Minoxidil: Rogaine is a topical over the counter product that contains Minoxidil. This comes in a clear liquid form and has to be applied to the roots daily. It really helps grow back hair but, if you’re not careful you’ll end up growing hair on your face. You should make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after every use. The FDA approved pill: Propecia is a prescription pill that has been FDA approved for men. This pill is effective for growing hair as long as you continue to use it, but if you plan on having children this is not a good option because it may cause birth defects. |

Hair dyes: Hair color or glazes coat the cuticle so that hair looks fuller and thicker. It would be best to use the dye with a 10 volume peroxide as apposed to the regular 20 volume. LED therapy: LED means light-emitting diode which is a form of electroluminescence. Hair Max Laser Comb is a FDA approved device that shines red LEDs on the scalp to reverse thinning. The color of the emitted light depends on the composition and condition of the semi conducting material used, and can be infrared, visible, or near-ultraviolet. The recommended treatment dose is three times a week for at least five weeks before seeing any visible results. Like the other treatments, this option only works as long as you use it. Hair Transplants: If you’re considering a hair transplant, go for the single follicles transplant as opposed to the clumps. Each single follicle is surgically transplanted to avoid the “plug look” and cost start at $10,000 and up depending on the amount of follicles. Transplant start growing after three month and take about a year before the full result. |

Yes, I took the bait. I’m a user now. I figured that I’d rather spend the money on a non-invasive, non-chemical treatment that will leave me with a device to sell rather than a prescription to a drug that reportedly has the same odds of success.

Product Reviews
For many years leading hair clinics and salons in Europe, Asia and around the world have been using Laser PhotoTherapy — a form of laser technology also referred to as Low Level Laser Therapy — to improve the appearance of thinning hair. Over and over individuals suffering from thin, lifeless hair have achieved great results with this form of therapy, but until just recently Laser PhotoTherapy was only available through exclusive hair clinics. These clinics rely on large, fixed laser devices, and, to be effective, a patient must attend many regularly scheduled, expensive in-office therapy sessions.
With the HairMax LaserComb, Lexington International has miniaturized the internationally-acclaimed Laser PhotoTherapy technology. Now, with the LaserComb, it is possible to receive this effective hair care treatment in the comfort and privacy of your home, office, or hotel, and at a fraction of the cost charged by hair clinics.

By harnessing the energizing and nourishing effects of Laser PhotoTherapy, HairMax makes your hair look healthy and vibrant. Remember, living cells thrive in light and your hair is no different.
