Founding President of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery, Dr. Shelly Friedman, discusses the importance of seeking specialized hair restoration advice from medical experts in the field as well as the urgency of taking action early if hair loss runs in your family. In this video, he discusses the advantages of Xtrallux laser therapy caps for non-surgical treatment of hair loss patients and explains why chooses the Xtrallux brand to treat his patients.
"The best type of cap is based on how many diodes the cap actually has. The more diodes, the more energy, the more energy, the more chances that you're going to be able to stop your hair loss. So I've been very fortunate in being involved with the Xtrallux cap... The more diodes you have, the more power you get, which translates to the most energy. It's the equivalent of using a 40 watt bulb or a 3300 watt bulb."
Dr. Shelly Friedman, DO, is a Board Certified Hair Restoration Surgeon with 36 Years of Experience Treating 20,000+ Men and Women for Hair Loss. He is also Board Certified in Dermatology and was the first doctor in Arizona to offer patients the robotic-assisted follicular unit extraction hair transplant surgery.
He continues to explain the difference between lasers like Xtrallux and LED diodes which only treat the surface of the scalp. "Laser diodes are different than LED light diodes. LED diodes do not go deep enough. They don't penetrate the skin deep enough to get to the follicle. Whereas a laser diode does go deep enough. And if you have enough diodes, you're going to see the progression. Progression of your hair loss is going to stop."
Dr. Shelly Friedman, DO, FACD, is an Xtrallux Premier Partner. The Xtrallux Extreme RX laser caps shown in the video are available at the Scottsdale Institute for Cosmetic Dermatology at 8700 E Via De Ventura #130, Scottsdale, AZ, 85258.
