More on the HairMax Laser Comb

First things first…

$545 online

Yes, that’s right. more than $500 for the the gadget. While that’s a darn sight cheaper that a wig or surgery, it’s no small chunk of change. I’m pretty sure I could fine a better use for that kind of money.

Let’s move on…

Here’s a local news story on the HairMax Laser Comb.

Seth over at Battle Against Bald has a different video. I’ve seen some conflicting information on whether or not the “cosmetic” device has been approved for men AND women, or just men; but both videos feature women, so I’m thinking it’s safe for both.

The “HairMax LaserComb” Coming to a Walgreen’s near you!

I’m just guessing about the retail outlet. I’m not, however, making up the bit about the laser comb. The US Food and Drug Administration recently approved the “HairMax LaserComb,” manufactured by Lexington International LLC. “Laser hair therapy is the talk of the hair restoration industry today,” said David Michaels, Managing Director of the company.

The comb apparently does work. From the application filed with the FDA, “The LaserComb is indicated to promote hair growth in males with androgenetic alopecia who have Norwood Hamilton Classifications of la to V and Fitzpatrick Skin Types I to IV.” Study participants experienced a 10-20% improvement in hair density. Now, I haven’t heard whether that increase is permanent or permanent so long as you continue to use the laser comb.

Something to look out for I guess.
