The capillicare diagnostic test takes magnified photos of your hair at the dermis level. This will allow us to compare the diameter change in your hair and see new hair growth that is not detectable with the naked eye. This test is conducted periodically throughout the term of the program.
Photo
Digital photos are taken at the beginning of your program and at the end your program; They may also be taken periodically throughout the term of your program.
Laser treatment
Your laser treatment program includes a minimum of 24 treatments. Each Laser treatment is 15 minutes in length. Your consultant may recommend additional treatments or make change to this protocol base on your progress.
Scalp Blood Flow
An important blood study was conducted by P.J Pontinen PHD., measuring the effects of blood flow to establish the effect of increased scalp blood flow. It showed an increase of 54% after the first 30 minute session. This is significant because increased blood flow leads to healthier hair follicles. The way a laser equipment is constructed, with regard to how the laser light is distributed, has a profound effect on the treatment results. The laser hair care delivers the light directly from the laser source, without the loss of light properties and ensures the appropriate dosage.
