7HairMax LaserComb Advantages
- In addition to hair growth, the HairMax
LaserComb provides noticeable, additional
benefits including
- Hair Grows Faster, Thicker, Stronger (Tensile
Strength)
- Scalp Conditions mostly normalized (Dandruff,
Seborrhea Dermatitis, Itch)
- Reverse Miniaturization
- Regrowth of Dormant Follicles
- Decrease in shedding
- More manageable
8Hypotheses of Mechanism of Action
- Increased ATP- Leads to increased production of
ATP within the mitochondria of the cell. ATP is
the carrier of cellular energy. The increase in
ATP promotes increases in cell proliferation
inside the hair matrix. Increased levels of ATP
may provide the necessary cellular energy for the
hair follicle to produce healthier hair and
overcome the negative effects of DHT. - Cellular Apoptosis Other studies indicate that
LLLT may have a positive effect on cell
regeneration.
9Phases of Hair Growth
A. Growth Phase or Anagen Phase, each hair
grows approximately one centimeter (1/2 inch) a
month for a period of 2 to 8 years. The LaserComb
provides energy and increases blood circulation
to the hair growth process thus producing
healthier, fuller hair.
B. Resting Phase or Telogen Phase, the hair
stops growing, disconnects from the follicle and
rests for 2 to 4 months waiting to be shed. The
LaserComb helps stimulate re-growth of new
healthy hair replacement
C. Weakened root with a miniaturized Vellus
Hair (light colored, short, fine "peach fuzz
hairs). The HairMax LaserComb stimulates
cellular metabolism and increase blood flow to
promote thicker, more mature Anagen hair.
D. Dead Root. The follicle is no longer receiving
nutrients from the blood supply. The follicle is
completely inactive.

12Typical User Experience
- 8 to 16 Weeks New Hair Growth and General
Appearance Improvements Shinier, Thicker Hair.
Users report that hair grows faster and is more
manageable. - 6 to 12 Months - Hair becomes fuller, stronger
and denser appearance of hair gradually regresses
back to its original state.
- Regular LaserComb usage is recommended. As few as
three times a week for 10 to 15 minutes a session
is sufficient to see results over time.
