Infrared Light Therapy Looks Promising

Wednesday January 26, 2005
An infrared light therapy called the Luce LDS 100® System has had good results regrowing hair when used in conjunction with other topical treatments.

That's the informal finding from NewsCenter 5 in Boston. A female test subject who applied Rogaine to her scalp twice daily and underwent regular Luce treatments said she gained 40 percent more hair density at a cost of $3,900.

"I've noticed a lot less fallout. I can see right in here, there's a whole section in here that wasn't here before that I didn't even know I had lost," she told NewsCenter 5.

A male test subject used Rogaine and took Propecia in conjunction with the Luce treatments. He also had hair transplanted from the back of his head to the front.

One year later, he told NewsChannel 5: "I'm very pleased with it. I have more confidence." His total cost was $8,200.

The first place in the U.S. to offer Luce Treatments is Leonard Hair Transplant Associates with locations throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
