For women and men, hair loss can be a devastating blow to your self-confidence. Most of us will eventually lose some hair as we age, some people are genetically prone to lose more hair.
When it comes to treating and preventing hair loss effectively and non-invasively, we have Fotona® Hair Growth Laser, which is scar-free procedure with no downtime and pain.
This hair loss laser treatment allow your natural hair growth to be restored and maintained.
Humans have hair emerging out of the skin in many different areas of the body, but those on top of our heads are the ones we always want to maintain. Keratin, a protein generated in follicles in the hair in our skin’s outer layer, is the main component of hair. Old cells of hair are pushed out of the surface of the skin at a pace of 6 inches each year after the follicles develop new hair cells. Furthermore, every follicle has its life cycle, which could change depending on many variables. Hair loss happens once the life cycle of the hair is disrupted, and the follicle stops creating new hair cells. This causes dormant follicles to cease generating hair, resulting in hair loss patterns that differ between women and men.
There are various forms of hair loss, including:
Hair loss is a frequent problem that both women and men face. Hair loss could occur for a variety of causes, the most frequent of which being heredity and genetics. Other influences are aging, food, hormonal changes, stress, medical disorders, and medication.
Genetics – Hereditary factors could cause hair loss, which occurs gradually over time and in predictable patterns – bald patches and receding hairline in males and thinning hair around the top of the head in women.
Hormonal changes – A number of hormonal fluctuations could lead to hair loss. Pregnancy, childbirth, thyroid issues, and menopause, are all examples of this.
Medical conditions, such as alopecia areata, could result in scalp infections and hair loss. Trichotillomania, a hair-pulling condition, could also cause hair loss.
Medication – As an adverse effect, several drugs could result in hair loss. This includes cancer, heart issues, depression, high blood pressure, and gout medications.
Stress – A lot of people notice hair loss months after emotional or physical trauma. This sort of hair loss is usually just transient.
Diet – A lack of certain nutrients might lead to hair loss. Excessive hair loss could be caused by a lack of certain vitamins and protein.
Fotona® Hair Growth Laser is a non-surgical laser treatment for hair restoration in Singapore. It is a quick and painless laser treatment that targets dormant hair follicles.
The laser energy essentially send “wake up” signals to dormant hair cells, stimulating stem cells regeneration for natural hair growth to occur.
Benefits of Fotona® Hair Growth Laser:
Fotona® Hair Growth works by emitting non-ablative Er:YAG Laser with a wavelength of 2940nm onto the scalp tissue. By heating the scalp with mild thermal pulses in a controlled manner, this “wakes up” dormant hair follicles and induces a complex set of reactions in the scalp without damaging the surrounding tissue, which leads to an increased in blood circulation to latent hair follicles to encourage new hair growth, reduced inflammation in hair follicles and accelerated regeneration of hair follicles weakened by androgens.
Laser hair growth stimulation provides a substitute or supplementary option to procedures aiming at hair thickness, strengthening, and prevention of hair loss.
Clinical investigations demonstrated that when working directly on your scalp, the laser beam of Er:YAG with a 2940 nm wavelength encourages “latent” hair follicles to go on to the following stage, i.e. active growth.
The Fotona laser process comprises the deeper scalp tissues’ even heating without disrupting the epidermis continuity. As a result, enhanced flow of blood to “latent hair follicles,” which obtain an “energy boost” to promote the growth of new hair; growth factor release (EGF and TGFB3), which have a positive impact on hair growth; sped up restoration of the epidermal cells of the scalp, which indicates faster regeneration of androgen-weakened hair follicles.
Treatment area may be divided in to smaller parts, depending the size of the affected areas.
