Dr. Ife Rodney of Eternal Dermatology & Aesthetic Center, located in the Columbia, Maryland, area, has introduced a revolutionary hair restoration technology to her office. Referred to as KeraLase, this treatment stimulates natural hair growth through laser therapy.
KeraLase is a noninvasive procedure that uses the LaseMD (1927nm wavelength) laser to treat hair loss and promote regrowth. This FDA-approved treatment works by gliding the LaseMD device along the scalp to create microchannels. Then, the Kerafactor growth factor serum is massaged into the scalp. This treatment is an alternative to solutions such as PRP therapy or the use of certain shampoos and creams.
The KeraLase treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Rodney. During this personalized session, she carefully assesses the patient’s hair and scalp condition, medical history, and lifestyle factors that might contribute to hair loss. This allows the patient to ask any questions they may have about the treatment, ensuring they feel fully informed and cared for.
Before beginning the KeraLase treatment, the scalp is cleansed and exfoliated to remove any buildup of oils or products that may interfere with light penetration. This step ensures the laser energy can reach the hair follicles for effective treatment.
Then, the LaseMD device is used on the scalp to create micro-channels that allow for better absorption of the Kerafactor growth factor, which is massaged into the scalp afterward.
During this part of the treatment, our provider offers LLLT (low-level light therapy) with red light to increase circulation to the scalp and improve the absorption of the Kerafactor serum.
Once the laser session is complete, patients are provided with detailed post-treatment care instructions. They are advised to avoid washing their hair or applying any products directly to the scalp for 48 hours. To support their journey to healthy hair, they are also recommended to maintain a healthy diet, exercise regularly, refrain from using harsh chemicals or heat-styling tools, and use specific hair care products that will promote scalp health and hair growth.
