March 28, 2014 — CINCINNATI, OH — Dr. Jon E. Mendelsohn, Medical Director of Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center, is one of the first physicians in the Tri-State authorized to offer the Capillus272 hair restoration device, providing patients with an affordable, convenient, non-surgical option to strengthen the hair and promote re-growth from the comfort of their own home. The portable device has 272 diode lasers, which is more than any other at-home or even clinical unit device for hair loss, making it one of the most effective low level hair restoration laser treatments available.
Says Mendelsohn, “Low-level light therapy (LLLT) is a newly recognized treatment option for the treatment of hair loss in both men and women. The Capillus272 is a portable device that can be easily concealed inside of a hat, scarf or any other form of head covering. It is so convenient to use, that patients may slip it on during their commute to or from work, while working out, or while watching their favorite 30-minute television program. When used just 30 minutes every other day, patients can expect to see optimal hair re-growth results.”
Says Mark Lucas, Clinical Director of the Advanced Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Center, “The earlier a person is in the hair loss stage, the odds of hair restoration are much better. Laser therapy has been shown to slow, stop, and possibly reverse hair loss by improving the health of existing hair, also reviving and thickening it, as it stimulates the scalp and encourages the growth of hair follicles. It is important to have realistic expectations with the Capillus272, and to continue using every other day as recommended. Maintenance is an important part of any treatment.”
