What is Fotona Laser for Hair Restoration?
The Fotona Laser is an incredible system that offers a range of treatment modes that are minimally-invasive and require no downtime afterwards. This dynamic system utilizes laser energy for safe, predictable, and natural hair restoration results. It is clinically proven to restore natural hair growth in just a few short treatments. By combining Nd:YAG and Er:YAG wavelengths, this advanced technology is effective at reaching the deepest layers of the scalp and hair follicles to activate the natural healing process. Results offer restored hair growth for natural, yet noticeable results.
Benefits of Fotona Laser Hair Restoration:
The Fotona Smooth mode for hair restoration is a revolutionary Er:YAG treatment for controlled and gentle bulk-heating to stimulate dormant hair follicles. Fotona Hair Restoration increases blood flow in the scalp and stimulates metabolism resulting in the production of hair growth. The procedure is completed within 15-20 minutes with very little discomfort, and no need for numbing cream. During treatment, the innovative laser hand piece is held to the targeted treatment area. The system then works to deliver combination energy deep beneath the surface of the scalp to the targeted hair follicles. These specialized wavelengths are delivered with unmatched speed and safety while causing minimal-to-no discomfort. As a result, a cellular response is activated within the underlying layers of the scalp. The natural production of collagen is activated, which is effective at replenishing damaged tissue. The regeneration of healthy tissue is also encouraged which effectively repairs and restores damaged hair follicles. Following treatment, the scalp is replenished with essential nutrients and hydration for reclaiming natural hair growth. The process is safe and quick. Multiple treatments are suggested in order to achieve optimal results. Your hair specialist at Pure Rejuvenation Anti Aging And Laser Clinic may recommend pairing your Fotona Laser Hair Restoration Treatment with the PRP Hair Restoration Treatment for optimal results. Fotona laser treatments are clinically proven to be suited to all skin and hair types.

People typically lose about 100 hairs a day. This usually doesn’t cause noticeable thinning of scalp hair because new hair is growing in at the same time. Hair loss occurs when this cycle of hair growth and shedding is disrupted or when the hair follicle is destroyed and replaced with scar tissue.
Hair loss is typically related to one or more of the following factors:
- Family history (heredity). The most common cause of hair loss is a hereditary condition called male-pattern baldness or female-pattern baldness. It usually occurs gradually with aging and in predictable patterns — a receding hairline and bald spots in men and thinning hair in women.
- Hormonal changes and medical conditions. A variety of conditions can cause permanent or temporary hair loss, including hormonal changes due to pregnancy, childbirth, menopause and thyroid problems. Medical conditions include alopecia areata (al-o-PEE-she-uh ar-e-A-tuh), which causes patchy hair loss, scalp infections such as ringworm and a hair-pulling disorder called trichotillomania (trik-o-til-o-MAY-nee-uh).
- Medications and supplements. Hair loss can be a side effect of certain drugs, such as those used for cancer, arthritis, depression, heart problems, gout and high blood pressure.
- Radiation therapy to the head. The hair may not grow back the same as it was before.
- A very stressful event. Many people experience a general thinning of hair several months after a physical or emotional shock. This type of hair loss is temporary.
The Fotona laser hair restoration therapy is a new innovative laser technology that will help you get your confidence back by increasing blood flow in the scalp and stimulating growth factors resulting in improved hair growth. Using a customized protocol, the energy from the laser stimulates dormant hair follicles without anesthesia or surgery. The Fotona PS03 handpiece is moved back and forth directly on the scalp several times with a crosshatch pattern.

Having the option of combining the laser with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) to enhance results for those patients/clients that have been less than successful with either PRP alone, transplant surgery alone, or just wants to ensure the best outcome possible. PRP treatments use your plasma which contains white blood cells and platelets that are rich in growth factors.
