Red Light Therapy for Hair Loss

Red light therapy is a form of low-light laser therapy (LLLT) that stimulates hair growth, increases blood flow, and encourages cellular repair. It is safe, comfortable, and completely non-invasive.

How Does Red Light Therapy Work? 

Red light therapy works with your natural hair growth cycle. First, it produces a wavelength that your follicles can absorb. This increases blood flow to the scalp and stimulates follicles in the resting and transition phases, resulting in new growth.

PRP Therapy vs. Red Light Therapy

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and red light therapy are both non-surgical approaches to hair restoration. 

An important distinction is that PRP is an appropriate treatment for multiple forms of hair loss, while red light therapy does not work on dead follicles. It is only appropriate for very early stages of hair loss. In addition, reredd light therapy requires more sessions for many months to see ideal results. After the initial set of appointments, you will schedule PRP maintenance visits just twice a year. 

During your consultation at our Beverly Hills office, Dr. Firouz will evaluate your scalp and help you determine which of these non-surgical treatment approaches is in your best interest.

There is Hope for Hair Regrowth

Your hair follicles cycle in and out of the four stages of hair growth over time. Various factors can interfere with this cycle, including hormones, genetics, illnesses, and more. When the follicles die or become dormant, hair growth stops. As more and more hair follicles are impacted, you will notice hair loss. 

Although hair loss can be a distressing change, there are more solutions than ever before, from non-surgical approaches like red light therapy to advanced minimally invasive techniques like NeoGraft FUE. With Dr. Firouz on your team, you are sure to find a hair loss solution that works for you, fits your lifestyle, and can help you regrow strong and healthy hair.
