Hair Loss

WHAT CAUSES HAIR LOSS?

There are a number of factors that can cause hair loss. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, hair loss can occur from:

• Hereditary thinning or balding
• Radiation and cancer treatments
• Conditions such as Thyroid Disease or Alopecia Areata
• Pulling the hair back using rubberbands or rough brushing
• Side effects of pharmaceutical and over-the-counter drugs
• Long-term follicle damage through overuse of styling products
• Major health events such as childbirth, surgery, or severe infection

Over the years, there have been “miracle” treatments, transplant techniques, and a number of other products on the market that have promised regrowth; however, few have successfully recovered healthy, lasting hair.  But reputable treatments are available! Terrell Clinic currently works with patients to restore healthy hair through Sunetic Laser Hair Therapy. We are pleased with the results and patients are regaining confidence through breakthrough regrowth.

Approved for men and women, Sunetics Laser Hair Therapy uses Low Level Laser Technology to stimulate the hair follicles in order to regenerate hair growth. The treatment gently increases blood flow to the scalp, allowing for the delivery of nutrients to the individual follicles. This, in turn, produces the energy needed for the follicles to generate new, healthy hair.

Sunetics Laser Hair Therapy can be used on a number of patients; however, it will not resurrect a dead follicle. The ideal candidates are those in early stages of hair loss who still have diminished or miniaturized hair. Extremely thin hair or miniaturized hair is evidence that the follicle is still alive and can respond to treatment.

While initially a series of treatments is required, Sunetics Laser Hair Therapy is unique in that patients often experience long-term hair health. We recommend planning for maintenance programs, or “booster treatments” over time to keep the follicles energized and nutrient rich. The result of the overall treatments allows for the hair follicles to rejuvenate and restore themselves to a healthy state.
