The Hairmax Lasercomb

There’s hope for bald folks, but hope is probably all you’ll get for $545.

A Florida company says it’s come up with a handheld laser device that promotes hair growth. And now they say they’ve got the OK from federal regulators to sell it.

The “Hairmax Lasercomb,” as it’s known, is a combination of a low-level laser and a comb. It went through a six-month clinical trial conducted by its manufacturer, Lexington International LLC., during which the device increased the number of thick hairs on the scalp.

The device — sold online — is the only drug-free product meant for home use in combating hair loss that’s won the endorsement of the FDA, the company said. But it’s not cheap at a retail price of $545 dollars.

  1. Is that the same hope Obama is talking about?

  2. Just remember… just because it’s FDA approved doesn’t mean it’s safe.  This is the same agency that said Olestra was fine… and that ended up causing “orifice” leakage.

    You know… just a friendly reminder.
