research Photobiomodulation for Skin Pigmentation Disorders: A Dual-Function Treatment

2 citations , May 2023 in “Photobiomodulation, photomedicine, and laser surgery”

This editorial reviews how photobiomodulation therapy might effectively treat both hyperpigmentation and depigmentation skin disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

Dual Wavelength LEDs Induce Reactive Oxygen Species and Nitric Oxide That Inhibit the Production of Dihydrotestosterone by 5-Alpha Reductase

research Dual Wavelength LEDs Induce Reactive Oxygen Species and Nitric Oxide That Inhibit the Production of Dihydrotestosterone by 5‐α Reductase

December 2024 in “Journal of Biophotonics”

In this study, researchers observed that red and red-orange LED light therapy stimulates nitric oxide production and decreases dihydrotestosterone synthesis in cell models, suggesting a potential mechanism for using light therapy to treat androgenetic alopecia.

Wnt/β-Catenin and ERK Pathway Activation: A Possible Mechanism of Photobiomodulation Therapy with Light-Emitting Diodes That Regulate the Proliferation of Human Outer Root Sheath Cells

research Wnt/β‐catenin and ERK pathway activation: A possible mechanism of photobiomodulation therapy with light‐emitting diodes that regulate the proliferation of human outer root sheath cells

43 citations , September 2017 in “Lasers in Surgery and Medicine”

This study found that LED light irradiation induced proliferation and migration of human outer root sheath cells, potentially through the stimulation of the Wnt/β-catenin and ERK signaling pathways.

Treatment with Light-Emitting Diodes of Wavelength 863 nm Delays DMBA/TPA-Induced Skin Tumor Formation and Decreases Proinflammatory Cytokine Levels in ICR Mice

research Treatment with Light-Emitting Diodes of Wavelength 863 nm Delays DMBA/TPA-Induced Skin Tumor Formation and Decreases Proinflammatory Cytokine Levels in ICR Mice

2 citations , January 2022 in “BioMed Research International”

This study found that using an LED array with an 863 nm wavelength delayed tumor development and reduced systemic inflammatory cytokines in DMBA/TPA-induced mouse skin tumors, suggesting potential but limited benefits of light therapy.

Light Emitting Diodes Technology-Based Photobiomodulation Therapy for Dermatology and Aesthetics: Recent Applications, Challenges, and Perspectives

research Light emitting diodes technology-based photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) for dermatology and aesthetics: Recent applications, challenges, and perspectives

8 citations , November 2020 in “Optics and Laser Technology”

This review discusses the applications and advantages of LED-based photobiomodulation therapy for dermatological and cosmetic purposes but highlights existing challenges and health concerns while exploring future perspectives.

community LLLT seems like it's at least a solid maintenance tool. Can also provide ok regrowth in AA and MPB. - Pubmed

17 upvotes 8 years ago

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is seen as a safe and effective method for maintaining hair and promoting regrowth in androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and male pattern baldness (MPB), with devices like the HairMax LaserComb® and iRestore helmet being popular. Some users and professionals are skeptical about its long-term effectiveness and cost.

community Red Light Therapy: Cheap Chinese LED caps are better than $3000 laser caps

in Research/Science 37 upvotes 1 year ago

Affordable 92-LED caps may be more effective for hair growth than expensive 270-laser caps due to higher power output and irradiance. The LED caps deliver more energy to the scalp, making them a cost-effective alternative for red light therapy.

community Considering giving a laser comb a shot. Here’s a summary of my research on the subject.

9 upvotes 10 years ago

Considering adding Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to a hair loss prevention regimen; discussing the effectiveness of LLLT, and evaluating double-blind random-controlled trials that have been conducted on laser combs.
