January 2007: One of the many hand-held low level lasers on the market gets FDA clearance for hair growth and treatment of androgenetic alopecia (male pattern hair loss). Lasers now join the arsenal of hair restoration treatments like Propecia, Minoxidil(Rogaine) and hair transplantation. Numerous hand-held and in-office low level laser devices have been available for years to cosmetically provide thicker, fuller, healthier and stronger hair. The FDA clearance allows the manufacturer of the LaserComb to legally say to the general public that this device “promotes hair growth.” It is likely that this FDA-clearance will be followed by many devices in the future.
