Apparently a lot of desperate people will pay $700 for a little hope...]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/
Nice citation for the photobiostimulation though. I don't think this comb would do anything like that, unless you found a way to point it at your follicles as opposed to the hair shaft. Probably not even then.

The operative thing to remember in evaluating all advertising for hair products is that HAIR IS JUST DEAD CELLS. There's nothing that will perk them up, they're dead!

For the record, your citation says that if you hit the base of a rat's tail with a laser, it demonstrates a diminished senstivity to pain that is only partially reversible with drugs.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/
It appears that higher doses have nalaxone worked only partially, while lower doses didn't work at all in reversing the hypoalgesia (insensitivity to pain). This means that, as the article says, LPBS isn't stimulating more release of more opioids, as the release of more would have been countered by the lower dose.

Keep in mind these results were replicated with rats, so we don't know if they would have any effect on humans.]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/24/the-hairmax-lasercomb/

Personally I think $700 is a little high but since the brush is a one time expense it wouldn't be a bad deal. Believe it or not but I doubt this thing is a scam (at least the laser brush isn't)]]>Dec 19th 2005 2:06AM
