In this video, Dr Venkataram Mysore, one of the foremost dermatologists in India and the world discusses laser treatment for hair loss.
Laser treatment can stimulate root stem cells, improve blood supply, enhance the growth phase of hair, and thereby increase hair thickness and length. Low-level laser or biostimulation laser uses a diode to deliver energy at a low level to the skin. This treatment can be administered through a comb-like cap or a helmet-like machine. It is effective for early-stage and temporary hair loss but not for advanced hair loss.
Generally, it is considered a second or third-choice treatment for individuals who cannot use other methods due to side effects or in patients where medications are ineffective. Typically, it is used as an adjunct therapy alongside other treatments.
Additionally, it is utilised for international patients for whom PRP is prohibitively expensive and in cases of Telogen Effluvium, which can occur after illnesses like dengue or malaria. Fractional drug delivery is used for resistant patches, particularly in scarring alopecia caused by burns, injuries, etc.
The doctor advises seeking proper treatment from qualified doctors and not being swayed by advertisements for laser hair loss treatments. Venkat Center is equipped with all the necessary modalities to provide comprehensive care.
