Hair Restoration Q&A

What is hair restoration?

Hair restoration uses laser energy to target and restimulate dormant hair follicles.

At Generations Family Practice Wellness Center, the team provides hair restoration with the Fotona laser. The Fotona laser emits non-ablative light energy that penetrates your scalp, stimulating the hair follicles beneath.

How does hair restoration work?

The team at Generations Family Practice Wellness Center performs hair restoration during an in-office visit.

During treatment, your provider holds a wand-like device over your scalp. The device emits laser energy in mild pulses, targeting your follicles very precisely. The laser heats up your hair follicles, encouraging blood flow to your scalp.

The increased circulation makes it easier for your hair follicles to absorb oxygen and nutrients in your blood. That causes dormant follicles to “wake up” and grow thick, healthy hair.

What are the benefits of hair restoration?

Undergoing hair restoration provides a wide range of benefits, including:

  • It’s entirely noninvasive
  • Treatment is convenient and efficient
  • Pain-free
  • Highly effective

What’s more, there’s no downtime or recovery period. As soon as your appointment is over, you can return to work and other activities right away.

How long does it take for hair restoration to work?

The time that it takes hair restoration to work depends on several factors, including your age, general health, and commitment to your provider’s treatment plan. Most people experience improved hair growth within four to six months of the initial treatment. 

To ensure lasting results, the team at Generations Family Practice Wellness Center recommends regular laser hair restoration treatments spaced several weeks apart. Treatment is cumulative, meaning your results improve over time.

What is recovery like after hair restoration?

After hair restoration, there’s no recovery period. To ensure lasting results, the team at Generations Family Practice Wellness Center recommends not washing your hair for at least 24 hours and avoiding direct sun exposure for several weeks. If you need to go outside, make sure to wear a hat or another type of head covering.

Who is a candidate for hair restoration?

Anyone experiencing hair loss due to genetics or the natural aging process can benefit from hair restoration, regardless of age, hair color, or skin type. After an exam and a discussion of your goals, the team can develop a treatment plan that aligns with your needs.
