The
Invision Laser Light Hair Therapy device is a soft laser,
developed in Europe for the treatment of hair loss and diseases
of the scalp. Low level laser therapy (LLLT), which gave birth
to the laser hair therapy device, was first used to treat
wounds and sores that would not heal using conventional medical
therapies. These sores were usually located on the lower extremities
of diabetes patients where the lack of blood supply was an
issue.
Laser
light was focused on the areas to be treated with astonishing
results. Not only did the sores heal, but also the body hair
located within the radius of the laser beam grew thicker and
longer than the surrounding hair. This was proof-positive
to researchers that laser light delivered with the correct
power at the appropriate wavelength had a positive effect
on cell function within the hair follicle.
In
clinical studies, laser light is proven to stimulate cell
metabolism, protein synthesis, tissue and cartilage regeneration,
while dramatically increasing blood supply to the target area.
This same technology is currently being used to successfully
treat carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis and sport injuries.
Laser
Light Hair Therapy has recently been approved for cosmetic
use in the United States as a Certified Class IIIA cosmetic
laser by the Food and Drug Administration, which has the most
rigid standards in the world.
Dr.
David G. Williams, laser researcher, states:
"Low
Level Laser Therapy,
or LLLT is a miraculous healing tool."
Dr.
Pekka K. Pontinen of Sweden, the world's leading authority
of LLLT, believes that the day will come when most homes will
have a flash-light sized, low level laser device, capable
of treating a wide range of medical problems from headaches
and arthritis to burns and sports injuries. |
