It has been estimated that some 80 million American men suffer from some degree of hair loss, therefore creating a potentially huge market for effective at-home remedies.
I have been researching the HairMax LaserComb, and surprisingly, it is indeed a very effective option for men who are not ready to commit yet to hair restoration surgery, or are looking for something that will help with their current hair loss and then later on segue into hair transplantation.
The new products of laser hair combs deliver a specific wavelength of light that stimulates the hair follicle, according to Lexington International, maker of Hairmax's LaserComb(to date, the most popular of the laser hair combs).
The results have been backed up by numerous studies, and the product itself has even been approved by the FDA as an effective means for hair re-growth as well as preventing further hair loss.
I was actually even surprised to see that Men's Health Magazine had only positive comments about the product, stating , that on average, over 90% of men will see a growth in density of at least 10%! I don't know about you, but for me, any product that can add 10% thickness/density to my hair is indeed a product worth mentioning.
In further studies by the manufacturer, the laser comb increased the number of thick hairs by 93% of 125 users. The average increase in hair density was approximately 19 hairs per square cm, which is roughly a 20 % improvement in a guy with thinning hair.
The MSRP(Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price) is 5 and recommended use is 10-15 minutes a day, three times a week to maintain the effect of hair growth.
Some might think of this as expensive, but when you consider the confidence boost a fuller head of hair gives you and the fact that laser hood treatments, which are available at hair clinics can cost between 0-0 PER treatment, you would see why it's worth it in the long term.
Also, these treatments at hair restoration clinics need to be repeated at least twice a week.
Hair transplants naturally provide a more permanent, more intense result, but typically can cost thousands of dollars.
Topical medications such as Rogaine, run about a bottle for the cheap, generic version, but only produces modest results for only some users.
I've known a handful of men who claim to have never had any noticeable results from Rogaine.
I was skeptical at first about the news of the LaserComb by HairMax, but after seeing that it is not only backed by randomized results, including controlled studies done by independent researchers, who have nothing to do with HairMax, the FDA, and reputable fitness outlets, I was convinced.
This device is best suited for men who are serious about hair regrowth. It works synergistically with men who have undergone hair transplantation also, who want to augment the result even further, at home.
There has been other laser hair regrowth combs/devices on the market, however, they have not received FDA clearance to make the claims they advertise. I would imagine not all laser technology is the same , or offer the same level of strength/effectiveness.
Most of these other devices are awaiting FDA approval and may very well get it, if they are on par with the technology HairMax's LaserComb offers.
I personally, at 21 started suffering from some small degree of hair loss, as it's in my genes, and 6 months ago received an incentive of the HairMax LaserComb from Lexington International for my journalism efforts in this market in other publications and I must admit,I am really impressed with the results. I could swear the density of my hair is at least 20% thicker all over and my receding hairline isn't so receding.
Nonetheless in a few months I have an appointment for a hair transplant procedure which I am really anticipating! Hair loss can be devastating, especially to younger men, at least in this day and age we have some options to combat and treat hair loss.
HairMax's LaserComb definitly ranks in the top three weapons we have to combat hairloss and Men's Health Zine highly recommends this as a tested and proven method for increasing hair density and growing new hair.
