Hair loss and
baldness affects nearly 40 million men and 20 million women in the
United States. While there are hair transplants and wigs to cover up
the baldness there might be some new technology for helps for hair
re-growth.
One is an
electro-static ‘hair chair’ that encourages hair to re-grow. At this
time the FDA has not given the approval for hair re-growth. It has been
used in Canada to help chemotherapy patients re-grow their hair. The
chair looks like a hair dryer that you sit underneath. The process is
painless. It is supposed to takes 4 – 8 months with treatments of
around 15 minutes each week. If it works you can expect to see more of
these in the United States. At this time this device is only in a few
cities.
Another device is
called the Hairmax Lasercomb which is a do it yourself at home
treatment. The technology is called laser light hair therapy and uses
laser to stimulate hair growth. The Hairmax Lasercomb is used for 10 -
15 minutes three times a week to achieve hair re-growth. The FDA has
approved the Hairmax Lasercomb as a benefit to gain shinier, stronger,
and fuller hair. At this point the FDA has not approved it for hair
re-growth. Laser light hair therapy professional equipment is very
expensive.
According to the
FDA the only approved method to re-grow hair is with minoxidil at this
time. Rogaine was the first to have minoxidil treatments but now is
available with other manufacturers. Minoxidil containing products needs
to be applied to the scalp twice a day to help in the re-growth. The
younger and person is and the more recent the hair loss the better the
chance for re-growing hair. Minoxidil was originally used as an oral
supplementation to treat high blood pressure. The results for hair
re-growth can be minimal. It is thought that it may prevent
further hair loss as slow down the process of becoming bald. A possible
side effect can be an itchy scalp.
