When can you expect to 'see' results with Laser Therapy treatments like LaserCap?
Because hair fibers are produced from hair follicles at a growth rate of about 1cm per month, even with consistent use of Laser Therapy it can take six to twelve MONTHS to see visible changes in your hair in the mirror. However, by using an accurate scientific measuring device like HairCheck which takes cross-sectional hair bundle (Hair Mass Index) measurements, it becomes easy to monitor your scalp's response to laser therapy in just a few weeks and track your improvement over time... before its noticeable to the naked eye. HairCheck measurements can be performed at Bauman Medical Group or by a Certified HairCoach near you.
Sometimes, one area of the scalp improves more than another… many patients ask "why?" The answer is that the improvement with Laser Therapy treatment with LaserCap will be proportional to the amount of weak hair in a given area. The higher numbers of weaker hair follicles, the greater the improvement in Hair Mass Index. If the density in a given area is very weak, improvements will be less dramatic. In addition, if the hair density and thickness is excellent in a given area of scalp, the improvement in that location will also be less dramatic. It may seem counterintuitive, but just like other non-invasive treatments like Minoxidil (Formula 82M, etc.) and PRP+ACell, the response in each area will be proportional to the amount of hair that can be modulated or improved. High-powered magnification of the scalp or Dermoscopy with a device like the HairCam can help your hair loss specialist determine which areas are likely to respond to non-invasive treatment and which areas will need minimally-invasive hair transplantation with NeoGraft FUE.
At Bauman Medical Group, during your hair loss consultation Dr. Bauman will evaluate several areas of your scalp using HairCheck measurements and HairCam micro-dermoscopy and prescribe a treatment plan based on your hair loss status in each area and hair restoration goals.

Hair Loss Expert, Dr. Alan J. Bauman on NYU Doctor Radio's Men's Health Show XM81
What does your prostate have in common with your hair follicles? What makes today's hair transplants different from the old 'hair plugs' of the past. Is a modern hair transplant painful? Scarring? Limiting? Detectable? Costly?
Tune in tonight, January 30, 2013 at 6:30pmET (23:30 GMT) on NYU Doctor Radio on Sirius XM Channel 81 to find out the modern methods of hair loss treatments and hair transplants. As a special medical guest, I'll be discussing the answers to these hair loss questions and more with the host of the Men's Health Show, Dr. Stacy Loeb.
From the latest in hair growth medications (finasteride, dutasteride, Formula 82M minoxidil, rogaine, propecia etc.), laser therapy (at-home LaserCap vs. in-office treatments) and minimally-invasive, no linear scar NeoGraft FUE hair transplants, we'll be discussing hair loss in men and what can be done to medically maintain, enhance and permanently and undetectably regrow a youthful hairline and fuller head of hair.

Managing hair loss during testosterone replacement
Presented at the 2012 20th Annual World Congress on Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine by hair loss expert Dr. Alan J. Bauman, this lecture focused on one of the possible side effects of androgen (testosterone) replacement therapy: Hair Loss. For those men who are prone to hereditary male pattern hair loss, androgen replacement with testosterone may accelerate the process of hereditary hair thinning and baldness.
Mechanisms of action, medical evaluations, HairCheck hair growth tracking and treatments such as oral medications like finasteride and dutasteride, topical treatments like minoxidil 82M, laser therapy with LaserCap, hair transplantation in addition to nutritional supplementation are all part of the medical management of androgenetic alopecia (hereditary male pattern baldness).
Anti-aging physicians should discuss the possibility of hair loss side-effects from androgen replacement with their male patients to whom they might prescribe testosterone.
At Bauman Medical Group, we accept referrals from physicians who would like to partner with us in the medical management of their hair loss patients.Anti-Aging physicians can email doctorb@baumanmedical.com or call 561-394-0024 to discuss and collaborate with ABHRS-certified and renowned hair loss physician, Dr. Alan J. Bauman.

On October 13, 2012 renowned hair transplant surgeon and
Course Director, Dr. Pierre Bouhanna, hosted the second International Hair
Surgery Master Class (IHSMC) meeting in Paris, France in conjunction with the 8th
European Masters of Anti-Aging Medicine Congress (EMAA). In attendance were well over 100 physicians
and hair loss experts who listened to a potpourri of lectures on the latest information on the medical
and surgical treatment of hair loss.
Lectures included the psychological impact of hair loss, basics of
medical treatments such as minoxidil, finasteride, laser therapy and nutrition,
as well as the latest in hair transplantation techniques and procedures. It was a “quick trip” but one with a
well-respected international expert faculty and lots of new information on the treatment
of hair loss. A few short hours of Paris
sightseeing was possible the day before and the evening after the conference
was over.
Dr. Alan J. Bauman presented lectures on a variety of topics including minimally-invasive FUE using NeoGraft (aka S.A.F.E.R. by Medicamat), FUE hair transplant trends, low level laser therapy and hair regrowth (Nutreve and Laser Cap) as well as his protocols for large sessions of FUE transplantation (MEGA-FUE).
Scan the reviews for Rogaine (minoxidil) and the complaints are not hard to find: too greasy, too messy, sticky, irritating, flaking skin, inflammation, dermatitis, difficult to use, etc.
Clever cosmetic chemists have figured out how to reduce the side effects of minoxidil through the use of pharmacy compounding. This new compounded mixture, called Formula 82M, is available through prescription only. That means your doctor cannot simply write a prescription for Formula 82M and send you down to the local pharmacy.
Our patients have noticed that Formula82M minoxidil goes on drier and is less irritating than the standard minoxidil/rogaine solutions found over the counter. Because there are fewer side effects, patients tend to be more compliant. That means that they use the product more often and stay on the regimen long enough to see the benefits. Even the new, droptainer bottle makes it easier to apply than rogaine foam.
At Bauman Medical Group, we recommend HairCheck measurements every 90 days to track the regrowth of hair and the maintenance of the existing hair. Patients should use minoxidil Formula 82M by applying approximately 15 drops twice a day to the scalp.

Dr. Alan J. Bauman will discuss hair loss and advancements in low-level laser therapy with Suzanne Somers on October 3rd.
Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) September 26, 2012
On Wednesday, October 3rd, Suzanne Somers, the eponymous host of Lifetime Channel’s, The Suzanne Show
will be discussing hair loss and new alternative treatments for
patients with nationally prominent hair restoration expert, Dr. Alan. J.
Bauman.
The new talk show, featuring Suzanne Somers, who is known in the
medical community as a passionate healthcare advocate, will include
health tips, wide ranging education segments, and discussions on top
critical health issues. Since over 50 million American men and 30
million women suffer from hair loss, and spend over $2 billion each year
on treatments, the topic is a natural fit for the show, which focuses
on educating viewers on how to live a healthy, full and ageless life.
“We’re excited about the opportunity to discuss hair loss with The
Suzanne Show and hope that viewers are empowered by the new drug-free
and non-invasive technologies available to treat and prevent hair loss,”
said Dr. Bauman, who has treated more than 15,000 hair loss suffers
since 1997. “Our goal is to help consumers understand that hair loss is
no longer inevitable,” says Dr. Bauman who points out on the show that
there exists a wide range of non-invasive treatment options for the
millions of men and women who suffer from hair loss.
The Suzanne Show strategically partners with physicians and health
experts who share Suzanne’s beliefs in progressive medicine and
integrative health therapies. When Dr. Alan Bauman had the opportunity
to meet Suzanne Somers at a major international medical conference, they
discussed his holistic, multi-therapy approach to the treatment of hair
loss that meshed, according to Dr. Bauman, “perfectly with Suzanne’s
philosophy and direction of the show.” Says, Dr. Bauman, “Suzanne and I
both agreed that her audience would appreciate the benefits of this new
advanced technology as a way to treat hair loss.”
As a nationally recognized expert in the field of hair restoration,
Dr. Bauman will discuss the drug-free LaserCap, the first device of its
kind and the latest breakthrough in laser therapy for the scalp. The
"hands-free” device offers the power of a clinical laser therapy unit in
a cordless, rechargeable, discreet treatment device that literally
'fits under your hat' for non-chemical, non-invasive, pain-free
treatment almost anywhere, anytime.
“The LaserCap
is unique among low level laser therapy devices because it doesn't
require the patient to stand in front of a mirror for 10-15 minutes,
manually 'combing' the area, as with hand-held comb lasers,” commented
Bauman. “This is an exciting new tool for hair loss sufferers as it
allows them a discreet treatment option that can easily be combined with
exercise, work or even grocery shopping. And it works.”
In recent years, low-level laser therapy
has become more accepted in the treatment of hair loss, evidenced by
FDA clearances of one specific brand of comb-laser, an in-office
clinical device and a dramatic increase in prescriptions by hair
restoration physicians.
“Laser therapy has become a valuable tool for patients with hair
loss, and allows patients a drug-free and side effect-free option,”
explained Bauman, who has treated thousands of patients with laser
therapy in his Boca Raton, FL offices for more than ten years.
About LaserCap and Low Level Laser Therapy:
Laser therapy is a non-chemical, non-invasive way to help men and women grow thicker and healthier looking hair.
LaserCap fits into and under any hat, which when put on, gives patients complete coverage of their scalp.
LaserCap has over 220 diodes, making it the most powerful portable laser therapy device for the scalp.
In addition to LaserCap, there are numerous other products
currently out on the market, such as laser combs and brushes, helmets
and in-office clinical laser 'hoods.'
Laser therapy, like other non-invasive hair growth treatments, is no
‘miracle cure,’ but it is an important tool in the treatment of damaged
hair, thinning hair and hair loss. For more information on what kind of
results you might achieve with laser therapy or how laser therapy can be
added to your 'multi-therapy' hair restoration regimen, please visit http://www.baumanmedical.com or call 1-877-BAUMAN-9 or +1 561-394-0024.
