Fotona HaiRestart
Hair loss can be caused by a variety of factors, including:
Genetic Factors
Androgenetic Alopecia (Male or Female Pattern Baldness): This is the most common cause of hair loss, and it is inherited. It typically occurs with age and follows a predictable pattern in both men and women.
Hormonal Changes
Pregnancy, Childbirth, or Menopause: Hormonal fluctuations can lead to temporary hair loss.
Thyroid Disorders: Both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can cause hair thinning.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): This condition in women can lead to hair thinning or loss.
Medical Conditions
Alopecia Areata: An autoimmune disorder where the immune system attacks hair follicles, leading to patchy hair loss.
Scalp Infections: Conditions like ringworm (fungal infection) can cause temporary hair loss.
Lupus or other autoimmune diseases: These can cause scarring and hair loss.
Medications and Treatments
Chemotherapy or Radiation Therapy: Cancer treatments can lead to hair loss, though it is often temporary.
Medications: Drugs for high blood pressure, heart problems, depression, and gout can cause hair thinning.
Physical or Emotional Stress
Telogen Effluvium: A temporary hair loss condition that can be triggered by major physical stressors, such as surgery, illness, or severe psychological stress.
Nutritional Deficiencies
Iron Deficiency: A lack of iron can lead to anemia and cause hair loss.
Vitamin Deficiency: Lack of certain vitamins and minerals (such as vitamin D, B12, zinc, or biotin) can impact hair health.
Non-Ablative Thermal Stimulation:
In SMOOTH mode, the Erbium:YAG (Er:YAG) laser emits laser energy in a non-ablative, fractional pattern, delivering gentle heat to the skin’s surface and deeper layers without causing significant damage to the epidermis. This controlled delivery of laser energy creates a mild thermal effect in the dermal layers, which is essential for stimulating biological processes that can promote hair growth.
SMOOTH mode uses super-long pulses of Er:YAG laser energy, allowing for a gradual, gentle heating of the skin tissues. The longer pulse duration ensures that the energy is delivered slowly and consistently, creating a uniform heating effect across the treatment area.This heating does not cause immediate vaporization or ablation of the tissue, which makes it ideal for treatments that require thermal stimulation without damaging the scalp surface.
Fotona HaiRestart treatment is used to promote hair growth. The SMOOTH mode is a specific feature of Fotona’s laser systems, which delivers energy in a controlled, non-ablative way, targeting deeper layers of the skin without damaging the surface.
Benefits:
Stimulates Hair Growth:
Activates dormant hair follicles and promotes the transition to the growth phase (anagen phase).
Improves Scalp Circulation:
Increases blood flow and oxygen supply to the scalp, aiding in nutrient delivery to hair follicles.
Non-Invasive:
No surgery or invasive procedures, with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
Reduces Inflammation:
Helps soothe inflammation, which can contribute to conditions like alopecia.
Enhances Collagen Production:
Boosts collagen levels in the scalp, which is essential for skin and hair health.
Regulates Sebaceous Glands:
Helps balance oil production, preventing clogged follicles and promoting hair growth.
Quick Treatment:
Sessions are relatively short, making it convenient for busy schedules.
Safe and Effective:
No risk of scarring, burns, or long-term side effects when performed by a trained professional.
How does it work?
Stimulation of Hair Follicles
SMOOTH mode stimulates dormant or weakened hair follicles by delivering thermal energy to the scalp. This increases blood flow and stimulates the follicles to enter the growth phase (anagen phase) of the hair cycle.
Improved Circulation
The thermal effects from the laser improve microcirculation in the scalp, enhancing the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to hair follicles, which is essential for healthy hair growth.
Collagen Stimulation
The Fotona HaiRestart promotes the production of collagen and elastin in the scalp. Collagen is important for maintaining a healthy scalp environment, which in turn supports hair growth.
Non-Invasive and Comfortable
In SMOOTH mode, the laser delivers fractional, non-ablative pulses, which means there is no damage to the skin's surface, making the treatment comfortable with little to no downtime.
Regulation of Sebaceous Glands
Overactive sebaceous (oil) glands can clog hair follicles, leading to hair loss. Fotona laser treatments help regulate these glands, preventing follicle obstruction and promoting a healthier environment for hair to grow.
Reduction of Inflammation
SMOOTH mode can help reduce inflammation in the scalp, which is often a contributing factor in conditions like alopecia. By minimizing inflammation, the laser creates a healthier scalp, improving hair regrowth.
Activation of Growth Factors
The laser can stimulate the release of natural growth factors, which play a key role in the regeneration and repair of hair follicles. This helps kick-start the hair regrowth process.
Fotona HairRestart is ideal for those experiencing thinning hair due to androgenetic alopecia (male or female pattern baldness). Those suffering from patchy hair loss may benefit from laser therapy as part of a broader treatment plan. The treatment helps reduce inflammation and improve circulation, addressing these underlying causes of hair loss.
Initial Treatments
Typically, 6–10 sessions are recommended, spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
The exact number of sessions may vary based on the individual’s response and the severity of hair loss.
Maintenance Treatments
After the initial series of treatments, maintenance sessions may be required every 4–6 months to sustain hair growth.
Duration of Each Session
Each session typically lasts between 30–60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
