Another Laser Comb thread!

TheOliviaTremorControl · Apr 13, 2007

Yeah, yeah, I know, theres been way too many threads on this...

What do you guys think? Scam, no scam?

Its apparently the third (following minoxidil, finasteride) treatment to be FDA approved to treat Male Pattern Baldness...

There HAS to be some legitimacy to their claims. We all can see the effects of LLLT on skin conditions, wrinkles, and all that stuff...

You can't go and say that this is a Snake Oil, otherwise you're basically saying that anything the FDA approves is horseshit (granted, they aren't perfect, but they usually don't miss completely).

I'm going to work now, when I get home, I want some stories on this Laser Comb (no PEW PEW PEW jokes either, please, or star wars references).

Proceed.

Can't hurt But I'd stick with Foam/proscar/Nizoral... again can't HURT ... but given that most will be on some form of the regimen above the only real accuracy would be from someone who would be using it alone,I'd shoot myself if I used it alone for say 6 months when I KNOW I can get results in 6 months via the other way,or at least on my way to decent results via the BIG 3... I feel it's like all the scam places they all have these ingredients.. either they include minoxidil, and say it works yes (the minoxidil works) making their claims true,also ones that say USE in CONJUCTION with minoxidil... I know the studies are done with people whom are not on anything,but the brush... even if it were for a cosmetic thickness still would be worth it to some,I've seen people use some full blown scams and spend more... fda approved... indeed it is... fda also says there is NO difference between name brand and generic... drugs!

Well, I didn't plan to use this on its own. I'm already on 1mg finasteride.
I don't want to use minoxidil because of its short usability (stops being effective after 2 years, I've heard, and all those rogaine-dependant hairs won't respond to anything other than rogaine... so you're sort of losing them forever... at least thats the impression I've got)

I think I'm too young for transplants, plus thats really expensive.
The benefits of this laser comb (although costly), well if the claims are true, it seems well worth the money.

What is Foam? Like the new minoxidil foam version?
Do people still use the non-foam version? I haven't been on this forum in a while.

Are you saying generic drugs aren't as good as the real deal?
