NeoLTS Light Therapy for Hair Loss

NeoLTS Light Therapy for Hair Loss in Connecticut

LED Light Therapy for Thinning Hair

NeoLTS is an FDA cleared LED (Light Emitting Diode) light therapy which is used for non-surgical treatment of hair loss or thinning hair.  It can be used to treat both male and female hair loss.  It can also be used regardless of skin type or color.  It has long term results with a simple maintenance plan.

Benefits of Light Therapy as a stand-alone hair stimulation procedure:

• Stimulates overall scalp health - tissue oxygenation and blood circulation
• Promotes follicles to maintain an active anagen (growth) phase
• Increases the chemical compound (ATP) adenosine triphosphate which stimulates all living cells including hair follicles
• Delivers nutrients to cells that comprise the hair follicles
• Inhibits thinning of hair follicles

Benefits of Light Therapy with NeoGraft Hair Transplants:

• Reduces the possibility of shedding and shock loss
• Strengthens the area around the implant leading to earlier regrowth of transplanted hair
• Reduces post-op inflammation and pain
• Kick starts the healing process
• Stimulates overall scalp health - tissue oxygenation and blood circulation
• Reduces downtime

How LED Light Therapy Works

The different light wavelengths have scientifically proven benefits in the skin:

Red light (630 nm) therapy stimulates ATP (cellular energy) production to stimulate hair follicle cells.  It also increases blood flow to the hair root which delivers more nutrients to the hair follicle cells.  The increased blood flow is also thought to help flush away the damaging waste products that may affect hair growth.

Near Infrared light (880 nm) therapy, which is an invisible light energy, promotes the production of collagen and elastin.  It penetrates deeper into the scalp to help reduce inflammation which causes thinning of hair.

Blue light (420 nm) therapy is especially effective for acne, penetrating molecules within the skin that cause P. acnes bacteria to form. These molecules react to the Blue light therapy by producing free radicals that destroy the acne-causing bacteria itself.

During treatment, your scalp will be bathed in warm, soothing light for 20-24 minutes.  LED light therapy is not a laser treatment, so it is painless and relaxing.  In addition, it is not UV light, so there is no risk of sunburn or skin cancer.

NeoLTS Light Therapy FAQs

Are NeoLTS light therapy treatments safe?

Yes, NeoLTS is safe because it utilizes Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology, which is not UV light and it is not a laser.  The treatments are completely non-invasive and do not produce any thermal damage or pain.

How does the LED NeoLTS system work?

The LED NeoLTS treatment is a gentle and natural procedure much like the process of photosynthesis, also known as photo biostimulation, the stimulation of life processes with light. The system uses both visible red and near infrared light energy to stimulate your body's own regenerative metabolism at the cellular level, converting light energy into cellular energy (ATP).

How long do treatments take and what is involved?

Each treatment usually takes 20 minutes, using 10 minutes of Red Light and 10 minutes of Near Infrared Light.  You have goggles placed over your eyes.  The scalp needs to be clean and dry.  The surface of the NeoLTS panel is placed as close as possible to the scalp without touching.

How many NeoLTS treatments are needed and what is the maintenance program?

We use a 6 month protocol for hair loss and thinning hair.  The treatments start 2 times a week for the first month.  For months 2-4, the treatments are once a month.  For months 5-6, the treatments are every other week.  For maintenance treatments after the 6 month protocol, patients should have a treatment every 4-6 weeks.
