Red light therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is a completely non-invasive and innovative treatment that utilises specific wavelengths of red & near-infrared light to stimulate hair growth. It works by delivering low-level light energy to the cells in the hair follicles, which can have several beneficial effects:
- Increased Blood Circulation
- Stimulates the mitochondria within the hair follicle cells
- Activation of Hair Follicles: The therapy can help activate dormant hair follicles, potentially leading to the regrowth of previously inactive or thinning hair.
- Thickening and Strengthening of Existing Hair: Red light therapy can also increase the diameter and strength of individual hair strands, contributing to the overall appearance of thicker and healthier hair.
Red light therapy for hair growth is considered a safe and non-invasive option that can be used in combination with other hair loss treatments or as a standalone therapy.
