Aculas Laser
Posted: Tue Jul 11, 2006 12:11 am
I came across the Aculas web site while searching for a local provider for Low Light Laser Hair Therapy. I found competitor web sites as well. I have a few questions and perhaps you can help me. The competing products (to the Aculas) all look similar to hair brushes so one would assume you use it in much the same way. When I look at the Aculas, I can't figure out how I would use it. Is there a separate attachment I must buy in addition to the $899 laser?
Recently, I went to a clinic that offers laser hair therapy and due to a bad experience, I am holding them off as a last resort. They offer their services for $3,500 (hair products are mandatory and cost extra.) Their package consists of 1-hour treatments (one per week) for 5 weeks. The next 6-8 weeks I would need a 30-minute treatment weekly and they would start to taper off even more. They also had a slew of products that I needed to buy to help the laser therapy work. They told me that I had a buildup of excess sebum. I have several questions I hope you can help me with:
1. Is the treatment schedule similar with the Aculas laser?
2. Will I need to purchase special (expensive) hair products for treatment to be effective?
3. Will I need to use the Aculas indefinately?
4. Any idea how to get rid of the extra sebum?
I hope you have answers or suggestions. I am very frustrated at this point and not sure in which direction to turn.
Thank you.
