Vitamins for Hair Loss with Natural DHT Blockers

2011-12-28T08:52:00.000-08:00

Vitamins are essential for our bodies in order to maintain a balanced healthy life. Some of us do not get our appropriate daily nutrition which is why we rely on vitamins. Vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants play a mayor role to keep our bodies healthier and our immune system stronger. We avoid illness and diseases when our body is in good standards and specially if we exercise. When it comes to hair loss or MPB (male pattern baldness), our options are limited as the main reason for this are genetics. But fortunately, there are some specific vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and even herbal supplements that could help to avoid or prevent further hair loss. Most B vitamins are great for hair, as these help to regenerate new and healthy cells, but Biotin is the main B vitamin that will be essential for skin, hair and nails. Anything that is good for skin will always be good for your nails and hair. MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane), which is a dietary supplement form of sulfur found in our living tissues. MSM is required for healthy collagen and keratin which are both found in skin, nails and hair. Research shows that MSM produces faster growing and stronger hair and softer skin. Green Tea and Grape Seed extract, both are potent anti-oxidants that help to protect the skin and hair follicles from free radical damage. Saw Palmetto and Pygeum Africanum extract, both are herbal supplements that aids to block DHT (dihydrotestosterone), which is the main cause for hair loss and male pattern baldness. Dr. Baxa, at Professional Image and Laser Care Med-Spa has developed and formulated a supplement dedicated for individuals who suffer from hair loss or for those who wants to maintain healthy hair and prevent further damage. Premier Hair Formula is loaded with the essential vitamins and DHT blockers mentioned above and it is recommended to take this supplement along side the medication Propecia (Finasteride).

Shampoo For Hair Loss or Growth

2011-11-22T13:40:00.000-08:00

You see them everywhere, on TV commercials, radio ads, magazine ads, newspapers, you name it, "shampoo for hair loss or growth". In reality, such thing does not exist, as most topical products will not make hair grow or stop hair loss. But what topical products will do is make your existing hair healthier, thicker, fuller and softer. But which product is the right one or which one will be the best one for you? Typically, there are two types of scalp surfaces, oily and dry. Natural oils are good for hair so you do not want to remove those oils, otherwise it will make it itchy and dry and then it could harm your hair. Remaxx Advanced Hair Fitness System, is a product that Dr. Baxa and many other clinics and professional salons use for hair and scalp treatment. Their Poly-Nutrient Shampoo is for oily scalps, where it helps to remove excess oils and helps to maintain hair's natural moisture and does not allow it to evaporate. The Moisture Maintenance Shampoo protects the hair's natural oils and both of these shampoos are filled with Collage Complex which is a unique blend of Keratin Proteins and Cocodimonium Hydrolysed Collagen. Remaxx also provides the Reconstructive Moisturizer, which is used as a conditioner, contains Quarternized Keratin Proteins where it helps to fill in split ends and broken polypeptide bonds.

Low Level Laser Therapy for Hair Growth

2011-11-07T12:50:00.000-08:00

People that suffer from hair loss or thinning, and it doesn't matter if you are a male or female, tend to look out for options to help them with this condition. Most males have the choice of doing something about it or do nothing about it and be content with losing hair. Most females want to do something about it, regardless. Most females experience hair loss due to many reasons like post-pregnancy hair loss, diet change, hormonal unbalance, medications, bad nutrition, or genetics. Also, here at Professional Image and Laser Care Med Spa, we have noticed that most of our female patients suffering hair loss, due to the previously mentioned reason, are using the Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT or LHT for Laser Hair Therapy) and have indeed noticed s difference in hair growth. We have noticed that our female patients are more religious with these type of treatment as it is non-painful, non-invasive, no side effects, and it only takes 20 minutes per treatment. About 9 out of 10 females patients are 100% consistent with their therapy which means they will see results within 4-6 months of using the LHT. We recommend to use the Laser Hair Therapy for at least 6 months before you can expect some new growth. For more information about this therapy please click here to visit our page on our website.

Facial Spider Vein Removal with VeinGogh

2011-10-13T12:20:00.000-07:00

Facial spider veins are like tiny road maps in your face, they can appear in your cheek all the way to your nose and nostril area. There are many treatments for this type of condition, laser being the most popular one, but not as effective as the newest technology in Spider Vein Removal. The VeinGogh has managed to remove, completely and instantly any spider vein in your face. The technology behind it is called RF (Radio Frequency). Which works by collapsing the vessel it self and letting your own lymphatic system absorb it and remove it completely. The VeinGogh also works for spider veins located in the legs, feet, around the ankle are and some other parts of the body where tiny vessels appear. A consultation is always recommended to make sure if you will be a candidate for the treatment. Professional Image and Laser Care Med Spa in Charlotte offers Free consultations for all patients.

Facial Hair Transplant Reconstruction

2011-10-11T07:43:00.000-07:00

In many cases, hair transplant surgery is not about restoring your hair line or your crown, it is about restoring your mustache from a accident. Dr. Baxa has performed thousands of hair restorations and facial hair reconstruction has been one of his best works. Whether you are restoring or creating your side burn or restoring hair from your eye brow, it can be done. This type of procedures are very similar to a hair transplant, only it takes less time and it can be done in matter of hours, depending on how big the case could be. The grafts are to be smaller due to the much reduced recipient site since they will be packed in closer to each other. The grafts will hold 1 to 2 hair follicles to give it a much natural look. The incisions will also be made in the same direction the native hairs are positioned to make sure the donor hair grows the same direction and blends in naturally.
