Third
Entry (4 months)
It’s
the end of the fourth month and I am still seeing results. The strength
and fullness of my hair continues to improve and now, thanks to the
lighted microscope camera, I can actually see RE-GROWTH. The photos below
are from the hard-to-regrow area of the front of the scalp or the
widow’s peak area (actually taken in mid October). As you can see there
are tiny hairs coming in in two and threes. This is the peach fuzz I
talked about in my first entry (week 2.) This continued improvement is
happening in spite of the fact that I have been a bit lax in my visits
since my last writing – some weeks I only got to the salon once for thirty minutes.
As I
discussed my progress with one of the staff last month, they told me that
the most improvement usually occurs in the 5th and 6th
month. He didn’t tell me this in response to me complaining there had
been no results thus far, he told me this because there had already
been noticeable improvement and he was letting me know there was
probably more to come!
An
exta tip: Really
scrub the scalp when using the shampoo and conditioning products since
exfoliating is a key in encouraging re-growth.
Second
Entry (5
weeks)
I went in
for a monthly meeting with Andrew to see how things had progressed. As I
said in my first entry, I had noticed a slight amount of improvement but
with new photos I would really
be able to tell.
IT’S
WORKING.
First, my
hair is definitely healthier so at the very least it appears
fuller. And after taking pictures I could definitely see that,
particularly in the crown and top center areas, there is much less scalp
showing. The microscope pictures show an increase of fine new hair and
there is no doubt that the existing hair is thicker. Now these results are
similar to those promised by monxidil products alone but as I described in
my first entry, monoxidil is only designed to improve the condition of
your scalp to prevent further thinning and loss and to allow for the
possibility of re-growth. Laser Hair Therapy is adding the
crucial step of stimulating blood flow and taking the whole process to the
next level. Remember, the Laser Hair Therapy program says you should
see results within 6 months (and monoxidil products alone say longer than
that) and the improvements I have experienced have come in only 5 weeks! I
am absolutely encouraged by what I’m seeing and can’t wait to see what
happens in the coming weeks and months.

First
Entry (2
weeks)
I
recently began a… well a treatment for my thinning hair and male pattern
baldness. I’m very excited about the process, not only because it may
actually work, but because if it does it will have been as easy as it is
effective.
Andrew
DiSimone, a well known Manhattan hair stylist and owner of FaceStation
hair salon and makeup studio, came to us at spa-nyc.com and said, “I
have something new and amazing and I want everybody to know about it.”
OK. Big discount? New hair product? New makeup line? Nope. What he wanted
to share with us (and you!) so badly was a treatment for thinning hair and
hair loss called Laser Hair Therapy. “Guys!” he said, barely
containing his excitement, “This thing is WORKING!” So, as it is
always our goal here at spy-nyc.com to help you by giving you as much
information as possible – we decided to try it for ourselves and tell
you about it.
I went to
FaceStation on Lexington Avenue in Manhattan to see Andrew and to
find out about Laser hair therapy. As he started to explain the process to
me one thing was perfectly clear: He believes this process works. If that
statement seems obvious, then allow me to make a distinction: When someone
is trying to sell you something, they either believe in the product, or
they believe they can sell you the product. Andrew is definitely
the former. As he showed me pictures and news footage it was as if he was
seeing them for the first time. Did I just say news footage? Yes, in
addition to before and after photos, I also watched reports from
legitimate news organizations talking about this breakthrough technology
and even a reporter who went through the process and claimed – during a
news cast not an infomercial – that it did indeed work for him.
All the while Andrew is shaking his head in disbelief, “can you believe
that?” he said to me several times. view

So, very
simply, here’s what the process involves. I sit under what looks like a
salon hair dryer and let low level lasers stimulate blood flow to my scalp
three times a week. I was also given special hair products (shampoo and
conditioner) as well as monoxidil, an over the counter treatment for hair
loss which has been available for years, all designed to provide a healthy
environment for my hair re-growth.
Now, for
the purpose of this on-going review, I’ll just talk about my experience
with the process. For the science behind it I refer you to two places:

How
Laser Light Therapy stops hair loss
Andrew
then took some photos of my hair and scalp. He took the standard photos
you’ve seen before in association with hair loss products – from the
top, from the back. But the really great photos, the ones that are going
to show me even the slightest bit of progress are the ones he took using a
lighted micro-scope camera that he placed directly against my scalp in
five specific places on my head. I saw the photos instantly on his
computer and he marked them accordingly and saved them for comparison.
At this
point I have been doing the treatment for two weeks. I use the shampoo,
conditioner and monoxidil daily and I’ve been to the salon for the laser
treatment 5 times – twice the first week and 3 times (recommended) the
second week – for 30 minutes each time. The shampoo and conditioner work
just as well as what I was using before and the monoxidil is easily
applied to the scalp and dries quickly so I don’t have to wait long to
style my hair. As for the laser therapy part – it’s really tough – I
sit there. They turn it on. I read a magazine. Meditate. It turns off.
I’m done. My hair doesn’t even get messed up. That 30 minutes is the
most I have sacrificed in the last two weeks. But it’s a small price to
pay to get some hair back and to have thicker healthier hair. I am
starting to see very light – peach fuzz like hairs coming in on either
side of the widow’s peak. At this point I’m not sure if they are real
or imagined but in two weeks I will take new photos (regular and
microscopic) and be able to say for sure weather the process is working.
