    LED and Laser ~ What's the difference?

    Send us Fan Mail LED and Laser ~ What's the difference?  Adam is from Leeds, he is now in his 40s, and has experienced Male Pattern hair loss since his 20s. After his wife began to notice changes in her hair too, they started to look for options. He went to visit a hair loss clinic, where they introduced him to low level light therapy. The treatments proved to be very time consuming, expensive and difficult to fit sessions into day-to-day life.  They liked the idea of laser and the scientific evidence behind it, and decided to create their own laser device, a convenient, good looking baseball cap design which has 272 diodes.  Laser can penetrate through the layers of the scalp, right to the hair follicle and stimulate growth, prolonging the length of the hair follicle growth cycle.  Connect with Livdor: Instagram Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR  Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Support the show Connect with Hair therapy: FacebookInstagramTwitterClubhouse- @Hair.TherapyHair Therapy WebsiteDonate towards the podcast Start your own podcast Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert!  Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR  Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK

    Living with alopecia without a support system

    Send us Fan Mail Living with alopecia without a support system  Rachel Hannah is 47, and she lives in Philadelphia. She describes herself as a very empathetic person, who does not like to see anyone in pain or suffering.  She has had various health issues, and she has now been experiencing alopecia since 2023. She was a model as a child, and has always been judged on her looks, even by her own family. She then became an aesthetician who works with skin, and says that this is an industry where you are also judged on how you look and your appearance by clients and peers.  She has been diagnosed with Female pattern hair loss and Teogen effluvium after visiting three dermatologists to get answers and a suitable treatment plan. She has had to advocate for herself and do a lot of research. She sill feels like she has no idea what will happen regarding her hair loss going forward. Rachel states that although her family were sympathetic at first, they soon lost patience with her and have made it clear that they think she should have got over it by now, put a wig on, and got on with her life. her relationship with certain family members is conditional, and the relationships have broken down over this. Losing her hair has caused tension between her and her family, and left her with no support network or help.  After times where she has really struggled with her hair loss, she feels completely alone and has noone to support her. She has had to seek help and community online with others who have had hair loss and understand her better. After struggling with surgeries, illness and addictions, she still describes her hair loss as being the worst thing that has ever happened to her.  Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Support the show Connect with Hair therapy: FacebookInstagramTwitterClubhouse- @Hair.TherapyHair Therapy WebsiteDonate towards the podcast Start your own podcast Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert!  Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR  Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK

    Jak Inhibitors update for alopecia areata

    Send us Fan Mail Jak Inhibitors update for alopecia areata  Tommy Hall is originally from Maine, near Boston, but now lives in London. He first came on the podcast in February 2023, after experiencing alopecia areata, which evolved into universalis, and lost all of the hair on his entire body. He began using JAK inhibitors to treat his condition, which were not approved on the NHS at the time to treat hair loss. He joins me today with an update on his progress, sharing that he has now tried three different types of JAK inhibitor, the challenges that have come with this, and even the clinical trial he is now participating in. Tommy says that he has come to terms with his hair loss, and how this experience has forced him to challenge what he felt about himself, his identity and his relationship with how he looks.  He has seen great success in the last 18 months, with his SALT score going from 100 to 7!
