  • Publication number: 20190143138
    Abstract: A device is provided which includes one or more sensors operable to measure one or more hair growth parameters of a tissue of a subject. A plurality of light sources is operable to radiate optical energy at a predetermined wavelength to promote hair growth. A control unit is coupled with the one or more sensors and the plurality of light sources, and a memory stores instructions executable by the control unit. The instructions may include to: receive, from the one or more sensors, the one or more measured hair growth parameters; determine a region within a boundary to be treated based on the one or more measured hair growth parameters; and radiate, by the plurality of light sources, optical energy at the predetermined wavelength at the region to be treated. The optical energy may be radiated within the boundaries of the region.

  • Patent number: 7722656
    Abstract: The current invention includes a device and method for the promotion and stimulation of hair growth using one or more light sources such as a diode laser, each light source operating in the infrared range at wavelengths in a range from about 2500 nm to about 10,000 nm and at a low wattage, collectively less than about 1000 mw, with the power level typically being in the region of 500 mw. A diode laser operating in this range will have a greater dispersion rate than heretofore, thus requiring fewer diodes to cover the same area of scalp with less power required per diode laser.

  • Publication number: 20070276359
    Abstract: A diode laser irradiation system for treating biological tissue of a subject without exposing the tissue to damaging thermal effects. The system includes a wand containing one or more diode lasers disposed for irradiating the tissue with coherent optical energy at a power output level of less than 1000 mw in aggregate at a wavelength in a range of from about 2500 nm to about 10,000 nm, and laser setting controls for operating the diode laser to achieve a rate of absorption and conversion to heat in the irradiated tissue in a range between a minimum rate sufficient to elevate the average temperature of the irradiated tissue to a level above the basal body temperature of the subject, and a maximum rate which is less than the rate at which the irradiated tissue is converted into a collagenous substance. The wand may be used manually or automatically in hands-free mode.

  • Publication number: 20020026225
    Abstract: An irradiation and electrotherapy system for treating biological tissue of a subject without exposing the tissue to damaging effects. The system includes a manipulable wand for contact with the tissue, a diode laser disposed in the wand for irradiating the tissue with coherent optical energy, a metal sheath for providing electrical stimulation to the tissue, and setting controls for operating the wand to achieve a rate of absorption and conversion to heat in the irradiated tissue in a range between a minimum rate sufficient to elevate the average temperature of the irradiated tissue to a level above the basal body temperature of the subject, and a maximum rate which is less than the rate at which the irradiated tissue is converted into a collagenous substance.

  • Patent number: 6033431
    Abstract: A diode laser irradiation system for treating biological tissue of a subject without exposing the tissue to damaging thermal effects. The system includes a manipulable wand for contact with the tissue, a diode laser disposed in the wand for irradiating the tissue with coherent optical energy at a power output level of less than one thousand milliwatts, and laser setting controls for operating the diode laser to achieve a rate of absorption and conversion to heat in the irradiated tissue in a range between a minimum rate sufficient to elevate the average temperature of the irradiated tissue to a level above the basal body temperature of the subject, and a maximum rate which is less than the rate at which the irradiated tissue is converted into a collagenous.
