Usage
Q: How
do I use the LaserComb?
A: The LaserComb has been designed with both comfort and convenience
in mind. To turn on the LaserComb press the power button
and then the laser button on the front of the unit. Next,
place the LaserComb flat on your head using the two rows of
teeth. Rather than constantly moving the LaserComb through your
hair (as you would with a regular brush or comb), you will use
what we like to call the glide method by placing the LaserComb
on a specific spot on your head and gently gliding it back a inch each time the audible four-second beep occurs. Move
from the front of your hairline to the back of your head and
then repeat the process moving in the opposite direction. The
glide method is the best way to ensure that the LaserComb
will be as effective as possible for you.
In
addition to being very easy to operate, the LaserComb is also
a relaxing and enjoyable product to use. There are no sprays,
topical ointments, or powders to worry about, and it can be
used in the comfort of your own home at your own convenience.

Q:
How often do I need to use the LaserComb?
A: We
recommend that the LaserComb be used 3 times per week, 10-15
minutes per treatment for optimal results.
top
Q: Can
I use the LaserComb more than three times a week to see faster
results?
A:
We have found that three times a week seems to be the optimal
amount of usage. Using the LaserComb more than three times a
week has not been shown to accelerate the benefits.
top
Q: How
long will I need to continue treatment with the LaserComb?
A:
Hair care treatment, as with the treatment of any condition,
is an ongoing process. For this reason, it is imperative that,
to keep seeing positive benefits from the LaserComb, you use
it as indicated on a consistent basis. You can miss a day here
and there and be alright, but all in all, if you do not use
the product as recommended, there is a strong possibility that
you will not see desirable results or you will regress to where
you were prior to using the LaserComb.
top
Q: When
can I expect to start seeing results from the LaserComb?
A:
User experience will vary. In general, there are three categories
of user experience: 45% of users will see positive results after
8 weeks of treatment. Another 45% will see benefits from weeks
10-16. The last 10% of users will begin to see subtle improvements
(if any) after 16 weeks.
top
Q: Does
it work on the entire head or only on the back?
A:
The LaserComb may improve the appearance of the entire head:
back, front, top and sides.
top
Q: Can
I use the LaserComb in conjunction with other treatments?
A:
The LaserComb works well as both a stand alone treatment and
in conjunction with other treatments.
top
Q: I
am just starting to notice my hair beginning to thin, is it
too soon to start using the LaserComb?
A:
It is actually never too soon to start. The better the initial
condition of your hair, the better your results with the LaserComb
can be. Keep in mind, that the purpose of the LaserComb is to
enhance the condition of your hair (make it appear healthier
fuller and thicker), as opposed to aiding in the progression
of problem hair. The LaserComb treatment should be incorporated
into your daily preventative maintenance routine, much like
brushing everyday to maintain healthy teeth and gums.

Q: Does
the HairMax LaserComb work for everyone?
A: Just as fresh air and exercise is "good" for improving the body's
appearance, laser light energy is "good" for improving the hair.
Both men & women can benefit from the laser light energy
provided by the HairMax LaserComb.
top
Q: Can
people of all ages benefit from using the LaserComb?
A:
Studies have shown that low level laser therapy (LLLT) is effective
in people ages 18 and older. For people under the age of 18,
we recommend you consult your physician prior to using the LaserComb.
top
Q: Does
the LaserComb work for women?
A: 40%
of our users are indeed female, and yes, the LaserComb has delivered
great results for many women.
top
Q: Can
I use the LaserComb if I have already had transplant surgery?
A:
This practice is encouraged by an increasing amount of hair
transplant surgeons worldwide. The LaserComb has been shown
to increase the recovery time in hair transplant patients, and
also to increase the look of the transplanted hairs in a positive
manner (making them appear thicker, fuller, and healthier).
The teeth of the LaserComb are even removable making immediate
use after surgery possible.
top
Q: Does
your hair need to be clean to use the LaserComb?
A: We
do recommend that you use the LaserComb on a clean scalp so
that the laser can effectively improve the appearance of your
hair without being hindered by oils, dandruff, etc. The reason
for this is to prevent product buildup from blocking the laser
light. However, you can also address this by cleaning your LaserComb
with a damp cloth before and after each use.
top
Q: How
often do you need to wash your hair when you use the LaserComb?
A: We
recommend that you wash your hair at least three times a week.
This way the LaserComb can work effectively without the possible
blockage which comes with having excessive oil buildup on the
scalp or excessive dandruff. However, this is not imperative
for the LaserComb to be effective; you can also address this
by cleaning your LaserComb with a damp cloth before and after
each use.
top
Q: Which
shampoos are best to use when using the LaserComb?
A: We
here at Lexington strongly recommend the use of sulfate free
shampoo products as they are gentler on the scalp, and help
make scalp conditions more conducive to the use of the LaserComb.
We offer our own line of sulfate free shampoo and conditioner
in 10.6 oz bottles. For more info on this, please visit our
order now tab at the top of our web page.

many beams are inside of the LaserComb?

of nine beams which bathe your scalp.

HairMax LaserComb complies with the International laser product

the LaserComb affect my hair in a negative way?

LaserComb is made to promote a healthier environment for your
hair, and in so doing, has no negative effects on your hair.
top
Q: Will
I know if the LaserComb is going to work for me within the 12-20
week trial period?
A: You
should have a pretty accurate assessment of the benefits you
will receive from treatment with the LaserComb within 5 months.
Keep in mind, though, that some people take longer to respond
to some treatments than others (some may not respond at all)
as everyone's individual conditions differ.
top
Q: Has
the LaserComb really worked for a lot of people, and if so is
there any proof?
A: Actually,
you may be surprised to hear that we have a 93% user satisfaction
rate. This number is supported by the fact that even with the
generous 20 week maximum return policy we still only see roughly
7% of our units returned.
