Guest Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Received a mailer from Spencer Forrest "The Toppiks Company" about a new Laser comb that suggests hair regrowth via cold beam laser light. I am considering trying it since it comes with a 12 week guarentee. Do any of you good folks have any knowledge or personal experience with this product? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Guest Posted September 29, 2002 Share Posted September 29, 2002 It is too early to report much about the laser comb at this point but it is making my hair more manageable and healthier. I have been using it for one month 3x/week. Now I will start to use it 2x/week as the instructions say. The pictures posted on the lasermax comb hair site are encouraging and the clinical trials for FDA approval for hair loss is going well. Most people see results after 4 months or so. I am hoping I am one of them as my transplant left my hair worse than before I had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 I had massive shedding and thinning all over from the transplant and most of it didn't grow back as well as I don't think many of the transplanted hair grew. As to why? No doctor has told me exactly why this would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 Who did your HT? did they plant in an area with a lot of hair? did you discuss it with him after the fact? I'm sorry to hear about that experience...is the HT growing in already and will you be doing another one? cheers and keep smilng (its hard i know but try) DZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 6, 2002 Share Posted October 6, 2002 I have only been in contact with Dr Beehner via email because I don't live in the same country as him. I chose to go to him for my transplant because he has dealt with many women. Once I see him in person which I am hoping to do soon, I will let you know more. He did write me and said, "Partly because of your experience, in women who have reasonably dense hair, not extremely thin as the majority of the women in my album which I showed you are, I have now started using the "stick and place" method, whereby I make only 3-4 holes with smaller than usual needles in between the existing hairs and then place the FU's immediately myself. Since I refuse to delegate any making of the holes to assistants (as most of the docs who do this technique do), it means that I have to place them all myself, which takes a little longer, but I have pleased with the technique so far. We have done it on a couple of men who only needed hair densened up in the very front." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 8, 2002 Share Posted November 8, 2002 Toofunnyman, I have been wanting to try the lasercomb, have you seen any results yet? Does it make your hair fall out? Thanks Candidate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member UKGEEZER Posted March 11, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted March 11, 2004 i too am considering this... is this virtually the same thing you pay to have done at hair clinics... will it help keep all the hair you have or just slow it down... is it genuine? you have to be so careful as there are many cons..

Regular Member Nobel Victim Posted April 28, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted April 28, 2004 Great news, keep us all posted on how you get along. By the way, is the laster comb restoring / improving hair? If so where are you getting the benigits so far? Crown? Hairline? All over?

Louis5 Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I've tried it and it actually caused a lot of irritation on my scalp. And when I tried to take advantage of the 12 week guarantee, I had trouble to the point I had to get my attorney involved. The product didn't work for me, but I do know that I don't trust a company that won't honor its guarantee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
