Hi Guys,
I'm new to this forum and I've been reading a lot of the posts on here about various hair loss treatments. Seems like the only was to find out the truth is from forums like this.
I am nearly 50 years old and have gradually been losing my hair. It is definitely genetic related. I still have quite a bit of hair but definitely noticing some thinning. I went for a consultation to Advance Hair Clinic and after inspecting my hair the consultant told me to use the Theradome Laser Helmet and Saw Palmetto supplements (320mg) a day. Since I am unable to use minoxidil due to blood pressure medications I am taking, he said I should expect significant thickening and regrowth in bald patches after 12 months. He is charging me $1275 for the laser helmet and $60 for 2 months supply of the saw palmetto. I am worried about the side effects of taking saw palmetto as I have read that in can cause liver and pancreas damage over time. Also, whilst I have heard of many positive results from using the laser theradome helmet, I am worried about hair falling out during the treatment. I am not experiencing much hair loss at the moment. Just a few strands here and there but very minor. Can anyone tell me if the laser helmet results in much of your hair falling out ?
