TLDR Combining erbium laser, laser blood irradiation, and minoxidil is most effective for treating diffuse alopecia.
The document discusses the use of phototechnologies in treating diffuse alopecia, highlighting their potential benefits in promoting hair growth. The authors, A. R. Ereshko and E. M. Gesheva, explore various phototherapy methods, such as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and light-emitting diode (LED) therapy, which have shown promise in clinical settings. These technologies are believed to stimulate hair follicles, increase blood flow, and reduce inflammation, contributing to improved hair density and thickness. The paper emphasizes the need for further research to optimize treatment protocols and better understand the mechanisms involved.
