FDA Approved Medical Hair Loss Treatment

Worldwide, it is estimated that 30% of all people, male and female, in their 30s, 40% of all people in their 40s, and 50% of all people on their 50s suffer hair deterioration. It is recognized that less than 5% of hair loss sufferers seek treatment or use a hair loss product because of the fear of side effects from drug therapies, the ongoing expense of treatments or the fear of surgery. There has been little hope of an attractive, affordable and acceptable treatment, that is, until today.

Now there is well-founded hope in the battle to maintain a full healthy head of hair: the HairMax LaserComb™. The LaserComb is a Laser PhotoTherapy device that has been shown to be safe and effective for the home treatment of hair loss (Alopecia). Laser PhotoTherapy, also called Low Level Laser Therapy in the medical community, is a safe, effective therapy with no known side effects.

About The HairMax LaserComb™

The HairMax LaserComb is a hand-held, precision-built device that delivers the stimulating effects of laser energy to activate the growth of healthy, vibrant hair.

The HairMax LaserComb has continuously shown, in most people, to:

  • Control hair loss in men and women of all ages.
  • Stimulate re-growth of scalp hair.
  • Strengthen, improve and thicken existing hair.
  • Improve the condition, quality and overall cosmetic appearance of hair.


The HairMax LaserComb works by delivering the energizing effects of Laser PhotoTherapy, a form of light stimulation, which causes hair to grow thicker, fuller and healthier. HairMax LaserComb treatments stimulate hair follicles to produce healthy new hair without topical solutions or drugs, which may cause worrisome changes in hormone levels.

In December of 2002, the Canadian Government (Health Canada cleared the HairMax LaserComb as a Class 2 Medical Device capable of stopping hair loss and re-growing hair in both men and women.

In December of 2003, The LaserComb was classified as a Class 2a Medical Device in The LaserComb was found to comply with quality, safety and performance requirements set forth by the Health Sciences Authority for medical devices.

Laser Phototherapy

Scientific studies have been performed showing that increases in the amount of the biological molecule adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, causes the individual cells to increase their activity. ATP is integral to the function of the cell as an “energy transporter”. It is postulated that laser light energy can be collected in the mitochondria of the cell which then transfers this energy to produce ATP. This process is similar to photosynthesis which causes growth in plants.

ATP – Nature’s Energy Store
All living things, plants and animals, require a continual supply of energy in order to function. The energy is used for all the processes which keep the organism alive. Some of these processes occur continually, such as the metabolism of food, the synthesis of large biologically important molecules, e.g. proteins and DNA, and the transport of molecules and ions throughout the organism.

ATP works by losing the endmost phosphate group when instructed to do so by an enzyme. This reaction releases a large amount of energy, which the organism can then use to build proteins and other cell functions.

ATP and Laser Light Stimulation
Other studies using specific wavelengths of certain lasers show increased activity in cell and bacterial cultures, probably the result of ATP production.

The HairMax LaserComb provides stimulating laser energy in what we believe is a two-fold approach to energize the weakened follicle. The hypothesis behind the LaserComb’s success combines increased vascularization and an increase in cellular metabolism. Laser energy has been demonstrated to increase the blood flow and circulation in the scalp. This increase in blood flow is crucial to promoting a healthy hair follicle. The increase in blood flow brings the important nutrients into the follicle, while taking away harmful waste products such as DHT. The increase in ATP as described in earlier paragraphs, increases cellular metabolism and cellular activity. The hair follicle now has the building blocks and energy to transform from a weakened follicle to one that is healthy and capable of producing beautiful, thick healthy hair. The enhanced environment then in turn invigorates the hair follicle which produces healthier hair, prevents further hair loss and stimulates the re-growth of hair.
