BEFORE YOU BUY A LASER COMB OR OFFER LASER TREATMENTS TO PATIENTS SEE THIS VIDEO.
I produced this video off the top of my head in an effort to educate LLLT doctors and the public as to why lasers CAN'T grow hair. The conclusions are plain to see and appreciate. They also have the benefit of being demonstrable, repeatable, and undeniable- which is much more than can be said for those who make the bold assertions that lasers can grow hair. The ignorance and arrogance of the LLLT industry has led them to make a fatal mistake. They didn't realize that once their magical lasers strike even the thinnest of surfaces, the light disperses and loses it's "laser" quality instantly. This means the light that finally makes it down to the deep layer of the follicles is nothing more than standard red light which, in their own words, has no "follicle stimulating" effect. Of course NO light has any stimulating effect on hair follicles since we are humans and not plants. This video will come as a shock to the LLLT industry The video takes about 1 minute to load, but be patient and give the stream a chance to download.

Dr. Feller,
Thanks for taking the time to produce this video, and post it on here. Everything youve said makes perfect sense to me. It just seems ridiculous to me for a company say that lasers can regrow hair without having anything to back it up.

Nice job by Dr. Feller in backing up his statements. Notice how his discriptions and comments are well thought out and organized. Exactly the same way he goes about a hair transplant procedure.
By the way I just reached my 1 year HT Anniversary on Sept. 18th. Lets play some Wiffle Ball!!!!!. |

Very nice Dr Feller .
Thanks for taking the time to make this . Yeah if lights were to grow hair Id have afro with all the raves I went to back in the day. Do you believe that laser light could possibly have any growth properties if it were to not dispersed into regular light Once it hits scalp? Your presentation is saying that it couldnt work because it cant even get to the follicle but if there was someway to saturate the follicle with the beam would there be a benefit? Basically what Im asking is it possible that laser light has the ability to energize human cells in the first place. First laser advocates say its more blood flow that the laser brings that attributes growth. Well Im sure we have all massaged our head ,hung upside down and plenty of other things to increase bloodflow with no results. Then they say its the increase in protein synthesis and ATP that brings about growth. Well I have taken supplements ,and synthetic enhancements for sports that are proven to assist with protein synthesis and increase ATP levels very high and my hair only kept getting worse. So Im thinking not only does the light not get to the root of the problem but even if it did and magically increaseed those 3 things bloodflow ,protein synthesis and ATP it still wouldnt do a damn thing. |

Thank you all for the comments.
Blow, Someone walked off with my wiffle ball bat. Pretty low, huh?! PGP, No, it wouldn't matter if you could deliver laser light directly to the follicles even if you could. We are NOT plants! Remember, hair loss is GENETIC, not the end result of rotting. This means the follicle shuts itself down from the inside. Blood supply nor ATP has antyhing to do with it. The cells in the follicle are simply executing a genetic program downloaded during conception. Nothing more. Anything that would allow a cell to funciton more efficiently would only allow that cell to carry out its programming that much more effectively.

I have included a shorter version of the video. It is my hope that we will read the responses of the LLLT doctors and other industry professionals soon.

dr. Feller:
You are a man on a mission (against the laser comb industry)! I always admire your honest comments and your desire to give your patients the absolute best, whether it is information, services etc. Keep in mind that you can't convince every idiots out there (the mass in not intelligent). There's a lot of desperate hair loss sufferers out there who would buy into any marketing gimmicks, despite all the scientific evidences against that, especially in the case of laser combs. Therefore, don't lose any sleep on this.

wow just another useless piece of junk then in the battle to prevent hairloss. It strikes me as amazing that such a straight forward video as that one doc can ultimately prove the ineffectiveness of such a piece of crap, yet millions of desperate folk have wasted their money buying these things this hairloss industry doesn't have know how to squeze money out of desperate folk. BRAVO doc for showing and making this its nice to see someone making a stand and proving it without a doubt against this scumbag industry kudos to you. ps come on laser supporters/makers the stage has been set ha ha

Latin,
I hear you. But I'm really not trying to convince the lay public. I am trying to educate the doctors, my collegues, to stop engaging in pseudo-science. There complicity in the quack endevour of LLLT degrades the medical profession in general and the hair transplant field in particular. What truly amazes me is that NO other doctor is speaking out against LLLT except Dr. Lindsey and myself. If we can make it so obvious that LLLT doesn't work, although I don't see how it CAN be made much more obvious, perhaps we can shame these LLLT doctors into explaining themselves. Every day of silence they let slip by is just another degree of credibility that they all lose. The problem is, their loss of credibility reflects on ALL doctors, and that's why I keep sounding the alarm against this junk-science. A belief in junk medicine is anathma to me. When it is promulgated by licensed medical doctors it is abhorent and must be countered. I plan to take this challenge to LLLT much further than a few videos and postings on the internet.
