Dr. Sugai Explains: Hair Loss and RedRestore’s LLLT Laser Cap
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2020
- Alopecia or hair loss is a common issue amongst males and females. It can be due to many factors or diseases. One condition is androgenetic alopecia (in men) or female pattern alopecia. More than 50% of men deal with androgenetic alopecia.
Here I discuss a newer treatment option objectively that has studies behind it to show its efficacy and could be an option for both male and female balding/hair loss: Low-level laser therapy in the form of a cap that you can wear in the convenience of your own home. I emphasize that there is no “magic bullet” in treating hair loss but when you combine these available options as instructed, you may see results over several months of consistent use. The goal is to maintain the hair density you have at th moment but if you see hair regrowth with increased thickness, that is a bonus! I will also go over the hair cycle and the proposed mechanisms of action of low-level laser therapy. I also mention systematic reviews and papers that help support the science behind this technology.
This laser cap is convenient as you can use it at home (does not look like a space helmet like some other brands) and it is FDA cleared. It needs to be done on a consistent basis for it to potentially work. Not everyone will have results with any particular treatment and thus speak with your skin doctor on these treatment options especially before you jump in to invest in a device with your hard earned money. Please see your board certified dermatologist if you are having hair loss that is rapid or causing scarring. This video does not replace a visit with your doctor.

Thanks Dr Surgai. I will order in a few days (before the end of the month). PS- You are great and your RUclips channel is awesome!
Your video gave me the incentive to stick with the LLLT cap. I was getting so despondent about the perceived hair loss on my scalp, since using the cap. Started about 1 1/2 months ago. Overall, I do not see extra hair in the sink, just my midline part seems so wide. My old strands of hair have a “barely-there” root, so tiny, surprised they don’t all fall out 😂😂
Bless you for sharing this information.
Will continue now and pray for the best.
Interesting...patience always pays off! Have a nice day Doc! Aloha🌸🌴🌈
ayame Naka you got that right!! Thank you and mahalo nui for watching!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🤙
Wow what a cool product! Thank you for showing it to us and giving us an overview of hair loss!
Lisa Sugai thanks so much for watching and yes- very cool technology that can be combined with other modalities!!👍
@@danielsugaimd Dr. Sugai is responding to Ms. Sugai!! Rn't you 2 related!!?? ;) Dr. what about the irestore pro?
My wife's boyfriend got me one of these just last week! So cool!!!
@TheRoswellCrash Just a joke, lol.
@TheRoswellCrash lool
I bought it for her ! I rubbed all the hair off the back of her head
"Your wife's boyfriend"... wait What???
Interesting, thanks for the info on this product!
Susan Sugai thanks so much for watching!
This is so interesting.. I've never heard of this laser cap, thanks for the info! I've been losing a lot of hair in the more recent years so this was helpful to learn about
Eunice at home thank you so much for watching and I hope you can get some relief from the accelerated hair loss! Take care and thanks again! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🤙
I bought the red restore max because of yiur vid. Thanks doc
You explain very well, thanks Dan!! Also lucky you already have so much hair!
Lauren Sugai thanks for watching and yes- very fortunate 😁😊😊🤙🙏🏼

Great, knowledgeable doctor. Nice, informative video.
Thank you so much, John. Appreciate it 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🤙
FDA CLEARED IS MISLEADING! ITS NOT FDA APPROVED! BIG DIFFERENCE!!
FDA cleared for safety, not FDA approved for efficacy yet.
You learn something new everyday, thank you for such an interesting share!!
zerot-cap.kckb.st/dilshan
So cool! 👍 good video bud Technology is pretty awesome
Jesse Obed thank you my friend for watching! Yes- technology is pretty neat and looking forward to seeing more studies on combining it with other modalities like PRP. Take care 🙏🏼🤙
Hi Dr, great I found tour channel :) love the info you share.. could you do a more on PRP and benefits, as also how many times are needed, etc? When not indicated? I see it is very expensive treatment and wondering why if it's uses your own plasma... also how efficient it can be..
hope the cap is as good as the box, it would be a sure thing
Hello. Thanks for this video. My question is this: What would you consider the best shampoo to use for thinning hair ? Thanks.
Can that impressive, etched box accelerate hair growth too? Just asking for a friend👴🏼
‘ it’s a very nice bow wow’
Doc i have seen some hair growth using a portable handheld high frequency wand with neon and argon glass attachments, i stroke across my scalp. Am I just imagining the effects or is there science behind it? Also is this hair cap better?
super informative! 👏🏼
Nguyen Ngo thanks so much for watching, brother! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤙🤙
We're talking about our hair. We don't care what type of box it comes in. It's a pity it is a paid for ad.
Does the light penetrate hair to actually reach the scalp?
Super cool (or warm) technology. Too bad it did not exist back in the mid-90's while I still had a chance to save my "Flock of Seagulls" hair style 🤓
brendanhogarty thanks for watching and hilarious- gotta see photos of that hairstyle sometime 😄🤙🤙🤙
Dr Daniel Sugai does this stuff really work?
Hi - does this work for LLP or alopecia areata as well ?
can you also use the cap over on your face for antiaging therapy.
Get the current body LED mask. You can use it in your face, neck, butt and hair Etc because it’s flexible.
I have anti phospholipid antibody syndrome, would this work if my hair loss is from my auto immune disease?
Hi Dr, Would I be able to use it on my face ?(covering the eyes) Would that be harmful ?
This works but u have to be consistent also the key is to detect hair loss at a very very early age don’t wait for a lot of hair loss I am at the first stage so it worked just minor thinning so it worked very well but if u are at Norwood 2 or 3 no point for laser I feel
Hi COVID Shetty, I am 19 years old I noticed mild thinning of my hair, you mentioned that it’s key to detect hair loss at a very very early age so is my age an early enough age to start laser treatment?
@@niamulsarker258 absolutely
I'm using the same Redrestore LLLT, for about 2 months now, noticing thinning on the mid-scalp region. do you think it's normal for hair to thin during treatment with the same exact model as you have described? thanks Doc
Orion hi Orion, I would say that is to be expected initially but if it continues for another couple of months I would definitely stop and go see your board certified dermatologist. If you are having fast hair loss, I would go see your derm ASAP. Take care and hope the thinning stops soon.
@@danielsugaimd thanks Doc!!
Thanks for the info , is it okay if I'm using it along with minoxidil?I'm using minoxidil for 4 months now and noticing improvement a lot on my hair . But wondering maybe this cap can help more?i mean if its going well with minoxidil. thanks before.
Great question and studies have shown that LLLT caps combined with minoxidil topically can add synergistic benefits. I am happy to hear you’re doing well with minoxidil so early on! That’s Awesome! Take care and thanks for watching 🙏🏼🤙
@@danielsugaimd I see , thank you so much for the information Doc , have a nice day 🙏🏼
I didn’t know increased shedding could happen! I’ve been using a red light device more consistently recently but freaking out that I’m seeing increasing loss. I wondered if taking too many supplements can also cause hair loss?
I been taking more supplements too
I wanna grow a beard! Can I put it on my chin? J/K. Thank you so much for sharing.
Tom Chou Chou - Keto Mukbang Lol good one, bud! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼🤙
@@danielsugaimd Lol i don't think he was joking
Just use minoxidal
Just use minoxidal. It works for that
This video is sponsored so free for influencers. I feel blessed to have already thick hair. If it takes one year to see improvement then the refund process should be over one year.
Does it got more heat ?
PSA: Illumiflow is a less known, but older company (one of the pioneers for FDA clearance) for laser caps. They are acually cheaper than Redrestore. The caps look identical. Even the hat. I can vouch for Illumiflow costumer service. They took care of me when my cap had a malfunction. Now that's quality costumer service. (I had a malfunction because I bought a refurbished...I'm pretty sure that's what contributed)
Anthony Thompson hey good to know! Thanks for sharing 🤙
How is the illumiflow treating you now?!
@@sirtattalottattoos3836 pretty good I think! Interms of satisfaction, I would like to think it works. I have a very strong near norwood 1 hairline. While both of my brothers have mild temporal resession, and finer hair, my hairline hasn't really flinched and i have thick hair. All this difference between me and my siblings even though one of em is only older than me by a year and a half. So yeah honestly, the cap is treating me well
@@CoinsandBullion same as I, I was wanting a transplant but ugh Idk no more.
Rogaine worked but caused fainting and headaches. Had to stop.
Use LLLT with AAPE for hair with great results.
Been using my cap for two years straight from Bosley. I have not noticed any new hair regrowth. Why do I keep using it? I wanna think that it’s working and I don’t wanna lose hope. But I’m reality, this was a waste of money. $2k worth. That 2k could have gone to a hair transplant which is the only way to get new hair. But that’s just my personal opinion. I did try the rogaine and biotin. Maybe it did slow the process down but just get the hair transplant right away and spend the money where it matters the most.
Same. I spent around 900 euro on the official Lazercap one from my hair doctor. I can't tell if it's done anything . I bought it maybe 4 years ago. I mean it's so hard to tell because I've been on and off other meds . I hope it's doing something anyway yes. This year I have been more consistent with it. If anything I think it is meant to prolong the growing phase of hair. But not my a massive amount
@@user-tz8pf4pd4q I’ve missed maybe 4 days within two years. I’ve been hella consistent with it. I use it everyday for 6 minutes. I compared pictures of my hair two years ago and damn I had more and thicker hair. Maybe if I didn’t use the laser cap when I started it I would be complete bald, who knows. It just didn’t pan out for me.
👍👍👍
The effectiveness of LLT is not permanent, would need to use regularly for a daily basis to see results over the next few months?
Yes
What is that cap called?
HAIR GROWTH CAP
Have you seen any results in your practice with this cap? 😊
Why would you even need to use the baseball cap?
I lost it aswelll hair
Yeah, Better have something to justify 1500.
Just don't wear it during windy days.
Going to the hair salon and sit under a hair dryer will do the same.
Why the hell I seen this on the commercial the other night and it was selling it for 19 dollars it must have sold like hotcakes in a couple days to be $1,000 now LOL
Lol sounds like Tesla’s stock! 😂
Who gives a sh#* about the box..
Lindsgyo
No good
Do good

Why not good!? Did you try it?
