Senior Member NARMAK Posted March 8, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2022 Thanks for sharing Melvin. Looking forwards to the updates. I personally never bought into the LLLT shtick but that was probably cause of those snake oil hair combs and whatnot with low strength diodes, not the more stronger lasers that the research was actually done on. I also think it's supplementary hair growth you can achieve but i strongly believe just like Minoxidil, if you don't block the root cause (DHT), then LLLT and Minoxodil will eventually show itself as becoming more ineffective as hair loss progresses. If i would personally rank things for cost and efficacy in hair restoration i think my list would be: 1) Finasteride/Dutasteride 2) Minoxodil/Microneedling combination or solo 3) Nizoral shampoo 4) LLLT, PRP etc. I'd probably say depending on where you go, PRP and these laser caps probably cost the same. Very much a maximisation purchase, not something on a lower budget and probably worth it for most. 1 Follow my first Hair Transplant Journey!

Scalp inflammation, DHT and reduced anagen growth phase. I believe the laser can reduce scalp inflammation, and stimulate hair growth. The thing I like about the laser is its a one-time buy, where PRP is every year. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

It doesn’t say how long, but I’ve read a month is long enough to see faster hair growth. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

I agree with this but I think what you say will I think it depends on how soon you start tackling hair loss and at what age you catch on. of course the sooner you begin the more likely you are to salvage any loss/damage. But for the most part I agree with your list but the lower level items have more significant when you are first starting to lose hair rather than later (from what I have read). I am interested in your progression. Melvin, are you continuing your daily routine. (meds/minox/etc?) or; are you solely using laser light to track if it helps to grow things out alone?

I’m keeping up with all of my other regiments. I’m just adding the LLLT as a an adjunct. I agree, I do believe it helps when you catch it sooner, just like fin and min, but I do think it will still work and maybe even make the transplanted hair stronger.

Senior Member JoeMan Posted March 8, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2022 How will you know if it works? Are you measuring your hair growth rate? Just curious what would be a sign that the growth you received wasn't just typical growth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted March 8, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2022 I am not a fan of Lasercap, but let’s see how your experience progresses.. I’m not sure how you will notice if/what it’s actually doing? Not a believer but still interested to hear a unbiased review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted March 8, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted March 8, 2022 I will be measuring the growth rate from this point forward, I’m a little over 2 months. If I see significant growth by 3 months,, it’s safe to say the lasercap is helping. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member Ryan Daniel Posted March 8, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted March 8, 2022 Am I the only one who expected the hat to look like it was advertised on that man on the cover?? 😅 Damn what a shame... I would actually go for a walk with it while it's doing work on my scalp! That would be awesome, but hey the most important thing is how efficiently it works is all that matters, while doing it at home! ps. the hair is looking healthy bro! getting close to that 3 month mark now 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
