Trichology is the para-medical scientific study of the hair, hair loss and associated scalp problems. It encompasses the study of the diseases of the human hair and scalp, as well as the assessment of the cause(s) and treatment of these disorders.
The word “Trichology” comes from the Greek word, ‘Trikhos’, meaning ‘hair’, and was first conceived as a specialty branch of study in Britain in the late 19th century. It then became a specific para-medical discipline in 1902. Today, Trichology is perceived as the “bridge between cosmetology and dermatology.”
Alopecia is the medical term for hair loss. Did you know there are multiple types of and causes for alopecia?

When the healthy and natural growth cycle of the hair follicle is interrupted and becomes fixed or stuck in its "rest phase", then hair loss happens.
Our goal is to find the root cause and offer you the solutions!

Let's Get Started!
Healthy Hair Growth Cycle:
Main stages of hair growth and healthy shedding:
Anagen: is the active phase of the hair. The cells in the root of the hair are dividing rapidly. A new hair is formed and pushes the club hair (a hair that has stopped growing or is no longer in the Anagen phase) up the follicle and eventually out. During this phase the hair grows about 1 cm every 28 days. Scalp hair stays in this active phase of growth for two to six years.
Catagen: this phase is a transitional stage and about 3% of all hairs are in this phase at any time. This phase lasts for about two to three weeks. Growth stops and the outer root sheath shrinks and attaches to the root of the hair. This is the formation of what is known as a club hair.
Telogen: is the resting phase and usually accounts for 6% to 8% of all hairs. This phase lasts for about 100 days for hairs on the scalp and longer for hairs on the eyebrow, eyelash, arm, and leg. During this phase, the hair follicle is completely at rest and the club hair is completely formed. Pulling out a hair in this phase will reveal a solid, hard, dry, white material at the root.
About 25 to 100 telogen hairs are shed normally each day.
* Hair loss happens when the healthy and natural growth cycle of the hair follicle is interrupted and becomes fixed or stuck in "its rest phase" known as Telogen and will not return to its "the growth phase" called, Anagen.
Fact: Many women and in some cases men, may have a combination of these factors which is why it is important to seek professional help.

Low level laser hair therapy (LLLT) is a revolutionary, non-surgical breakthrough for both men and women suffering the devastating effects of hair loss. With laser hair therapy, you can achieve thicker, fuller, shinier, and healthier looking hair without harsh glues used in hair systems or the pain endured from transplant surgery.
Low Level Laser Hair Therapy treatment is an effective, non-surgical, drug-free solution for hair loss and thinning hair, delivering light energy directly to the scalp and hair follicles.
Laser Hair Therapy (LHT) is a non-surgical, scientific approach in the cosmetic treatment of hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp problems. LHT has received 30 years of world-wide testing for effectiveness and safety. For the past 18 years we have used laser and recently incorporated 2 devices cleared by the FDA to promote hair growth
Laser Hair Treatment utilizes low light level lasers, delivering light energy directly to the scalp providing nutrients and energy to the hair follicle root. Functioning on the same scientific principle as that of photo-bio-stimulation; laser light stimulates cell metabolism and helps damaged cells to repair themselves. This breakthrough technology has been featured repeatedly on National newscasts across the United States. Physicians are praising this new technology as an effective treatment for hair loss. It is most effective when incorporated with a multi-therapeutic approach with products designed to inhibit DHT, both topically and orally to provide proper scalp hygiene and enhanced Minoxidil 5% compounded with w/ 5% Saw Palmetto.
The Laser was first used in Eastern Europe about 25 year ago to speed up the healing process of diseased individuals. Since the late 1700s, scientific studies have shown that sunlight- or the lack of it - definitely affects our body's biochemistry.
Light also affects our hair, including how fast it grows. We have all experienced how our hair grows quicker during the summer, and this increased growth is due to improved blood supply to the hair follicles stimulated by the red light in sunlight.
Who is a good candidate for the program?
This hair loss program is for all men and women who want to improve weak thinning hair. It is however important to note, with any therapy early intervention is very important.
What should I expect?
Hair re-growth generally can be expected to begin somewhere between the 4th and 6th month. Many may experience thicker and healthier hair as first signs of improvement.
Is it safe?
This is one of the first questions many people have. The answer is absolutely. Laser therapy has been used successfully for more than 30 years to treat a broad spectrum of medical conditions. This therapy has no side effects and is both painless and non-toxic. The type of laser light used in low level laser therapy (LLLT) meets all international safety standards and legislative specifications of a “non-significant risk” product, and is classified as a Class IIIA cosmetic laser.
Are there any side effects?
Laser therapy does not cut, burn, or harm the skin in any way. Unlike pharmaceutical preparations, laser therapy has no known side effects. Photo-medicine or laser therapy provides proper therapeutic treatment without unwanted and dangerous side effects.
Is the treatment painful?
There is absolutely no pain.
Why should I begin now?
Medical professionals agree that it is beneficial to begin a hair treatment program as soon as you notice hair loss. The sooner you start your treatments the sooner you will stop hair loss. If the hair follicles die there is nothing that can bring them back. The earlier you start, the better your results.
How long is each treatment and how soon will I see results?
Laser treatment sessions typically last 30 minutes; 3, 6 and 12 month programs are offered. We offer a maintenance program to help our clients continue to achieve regrowth as well as maintain results.
Laser Hair Therapy has been found to work for clients with a variety of hair loss and scalp conditions, including male and female pattern hair loss, alopecia, chemical damage, eczema, seborrhea, hormonal changes, certain medications and diet or stress factors.
