As a woman, losing your hair is devastating. I just had my second child and I noticed unusual shedding. After alot of research, I learned that this is very common. In fact 40 to 50% of woman lose their hair during pregnancy. Apparently during pregnancy more hairs than usual are in a resting stage and shed all at once. After pregnancy there is a rise in hormones and your hair is suppose to go back to normal. Well it was over 2 months and I was still feeling a lack in overall fullness. I decided to take action.
I went for a consultation at Advantage Laser Clinic. I wanted a treatment to help me grow hair naturally since I am breast feeding and I wanted to avoid medication. I had a scalp analysis where they counted the follicles at different points on my head and showed me where I had thinning hair. The manager assured me that my case was straight forward and that I should expect good results considering the cause of my hair loss which is pregnancy. I saw good reviews for laser hair growth treatments and decided to give it a try. I signed up for a 6 month package and purchased a laser comb which I am to use at home.
I drive into the city once a week for treatment and use the hair comb every other day. The laser is not painful at all. I feel a mild tingling at times but that's about it. I expected more discomfort and therefore was pleasantly surprised. I was even more pleasantly surprised when I started noticing results 3 weeks into the treatment! This is very motivating. Apparently this is not a common occurrence for everyone!
All the nurses are very friendly. They know my name as soon as I get in the door. I have scheduled follow up appointments with the manager where they take photographs to monitor my progress. They are very systematic in their approach and definitely take the business of growing hair seriously.
I really hit the jackpot with this place and I'm very grateful.
