research Efficacy of 1,550-nm Erbium-Glass Fractional Laser Treatment and Its Effect on the Expression of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 and Wnt/β-Catenin in Androgenetic Alopecia

10 citations , August 2018 in “Dermatologic Surgery”

This study found that 1,550-nm Er:Glass fractional laser treatment increased hair density and shaft diameter in patients with androgenetic alopecia, but did not up-regulate Wnt10A and IGF-1 mRNA expression.

research A randomized, investigator-blinded, controlled, split-scalp study of the efficacy and safety of a 1550-nm fractional erbium-glass laser, used in combination with topical 5% minoxidil versus 5% minoxidil alone, for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia

29 citations , April 2019 in “Lasers in Medical Science”

This study found that combining fractional erbium-glass laser therapy with topical minoxidil significantly improved hair density and diameter in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to using minoxidil alone over a 24-week period, with no serious adverse events reported.

research Expression of collagen type I, skin fibroblasts and macrophages after 1550 nm erbium glass fractional laser in androgenic alopecia

January 2020

In this study, collagen type I, skin fibroblasts, and macrophages did not show remarkable changes in androgenic alopecia patients' scalp tissues after treatment with 1550 nm fractional Er:Glass laser, despite improved hair regrowth.

research Evaluating the Efficacy of Platelet Rich Plasma and 1550 nm Fractional Laser in Combination and Alone for the Management of Androgenetic Alopecia

October 2022 in “Journal of Drugs in Dermatology”

This study observed that both PRP and 1550 nm fractional erbium-glass laser improved AGA, with greater hair density in patients receiving the combination therapy and no side effects reported.

research Alterations of collagen type 1, skin fibroblasts, and macrophages in the scalp following the treatment of 1550‐nm erbium glass fractional laser for androgenetic alopecia

June 2021 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology”

community New Light Therapy Can Suppress a Key Marker of Hair Loss by 92%

in Research/Science 201 upvotes 5 months ago

A new light therapy claims to reduce hair loss markers by 92% using a specific wavelength range. Users discuss the cost and effectiveness of devices, with some expressing skepticism and others considering alternative treatments like red light therapy and vitamin D exposure.

community A little more than a month using red light therapy. I'm surprised by the progress.
