Facts about Low-Level Laser Helmet Therapy (LLLT)

LLLT uses low-power red laser or light-emitting diodes (630-680 nm) to stimulate cellular activity in the scalp.

It promotes hair regrowth by enhancing blood circulation and increasing ATP production- the molecule responsible for cellular energy.

This process helps revitalize hair follicles, reduce shedding, and promote thicker and healthier hair.
