The rest of the ingredients look nice as well: Vitamin A (as retinyl palmitate) 2500 I.U 50% Vitamin C (as Advan-C® mineral ascorbate complex) 500 mg 833% Calcium (as Advan-C® mineral ascorbate complex and calcium theonate) 50 mg 5% Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol) 5000 I.U 1250% Vitamin E (as d-alph...

If your diodes are hot to touch then they are running too hot. It is ok if they are warm but not hot. If they are running too hot maybe contact OMG.

I have noticed at least 1 and 2 on my scalp. Still have some vellus hairs that need a bit more time though. Number 3 would be hard to differentiate but may be possible.

hapyman

I would try using aluminum foil and glue. Make multiple layers until it is as rigid as you want it.

hapyman

I never feel anything with the eyes. Not sure about your devices but you want to make sure that you are getting minimal exposure to your eyes. Even continued residual light. @robster: Hard to say if I feel it every time. I do feel a slight pump almost every time and I still do get slightly sore, usu...

Sounds interesting. Pulsed magnetic fields are legit in my opinion and there are a couple good products out there for electrotherapy. Coincidentally I ran across this the other day:

Looks good. About $2.50 for one meals worth but this has a lot of beneficial stuff in it

hapyman

Laser Blood Irradiation. Basically you use a laser diode on blood vessels, irradiating the blood.

hapyman

I agree with justthin but would like to add something. Canker sores can also be a result of poor diet. Same for pimples. Try keeping track of what you ate just prior to the breakouts. Perhaps the first 2-3 days prior to breaking out. For thyroid a really easy thing to try is supplementing with Iodin...

hapyman

Yes quite possibly. Too what extent no one knows. They are currently experimenting with more powerful lasers for psychiatric diseases, autism, brain damage, and others. If you have chronic fatigue or anything similar I highly suggest trying LBI. Just need one or two diodes and you are off. I could p...

hapyman

yeah they are guaranteed. If you have any worries I suggest giving them a call. They'll answer anything you need.

hapyman

Actually I think we need to get some information together all in one thread. I tried going through everyone's past posts but it is a pain. Since there are a few non-responders here lets get some info together and see if their is a correlation. Just a few starter questions here. Hair Color: Skin Colo...

hapyman

@Neverquit: Are you still getting that sunburn feeling? Have you tried altering your treatment times yet?

@the rest of the group: Who here has been trying magnesium oil (Not necessarily on the scalp) and for how long? Anyone else using Minox besides NeverQuit?

hapyman

I would just give them a call. They respond really slow to emails. They are really nice and will field any questions.

hapyman

Maybe someone can email them and inquire. Wouldn't hurt to know more about their methods.

hapyman

I have dark hair and light skin. I use 15 minutes approx to not over stimulate, as previously suggested. Basically guys I have seen no one who has really benefitted from these lasers. Laser sales should banned from hairloss sites until we know what works. Well you condemn others for having such a c...

hapyman

Nothing to worry about. It is just an increase in blood flow and vasodilation. Plus it is just temporary. Actually when I use lasers on my veins (Laser Blood Irradiation) I get the same effect except it is my whole body. Feels great too since poor circulation runs in the family.

hapyman

Sorry it didn't work out for you guys. My hope would be that you would try it for longer but that is your choice. Unfortunately there are those that don't seem to respond as fast as others when using LLLT. I am one of them, took me 10 months to stop. We have several theories floating around but unfo...

Cool Lukso, Keep us updated. Good Luck!

Looks pretty awesome hairisgood. That thing must look pretty cool lighted up

That second pic looks like a trojan helmet.

hapyman

You can measure amps with certain digital multimeters but not all. Depends on your model, it should say in the instructions or try looking online.

Otherwise you can buy a specific device to measure amps.

hapyman

I think there are a few members that have some of these sensors already. I'd hate to offer their services but perhaps you can mail them one and they can test it for you. Anyone? Or if you want to go it alone and don't want to spend the big bucks this sensor on eBay is only $25 and only requires a 9 ...

hapyman

The failure rate for the newer diodes is pretty low at least from what I hear. I think it is ok to glue them but make sure you use something that isn't permanent, maybe something like elmer's. Super glue would be ideal but if you ever have to replace a diode you may ruin your helmet by pulling the d...

hapyman

Also I just thought of this but if it is an exact molding of your scalp you won't get good spacing. Basically you want you mold to be in the shape of your head but bigger by 2-4cm. If you look at OMGs instructions he wears a winter hat or a towel when making the casting to make it a tad bigger than ...

hapyman

Yeah my hair and scalp feel warm after. But like others said, not hot. Warm good. Hot bad.

hapyman

Diodes - Aixiz

Spacing - Gutterguard

Distance - 1-2cm. Better off just using brush bristles for uniform distance.

Voltage - Some say more but anything around 3.3V is best in my opinion. Just make sure you have something that will provide enough amps. This is more important.

hapyman

He's still laying low but I have a feeling he should be back soon.

hapyman

If they are warm to touch then it should be ok. If your scalp and hair get hot and you have a sunburn sensation then it is too much in my opinion. That one that you have that is already burned out probably got very hot right before it blew out. That is what usually happens. But make sure no other on...

hapyman

From the descriptions of how it works or whatever it looks like it is copper peptides, colloidal silver, traces of iron/zinc/tin, and then a bunch of essential oils (none named). Considering the claimed pictures on the front page (7 days!!!!) and that it is $90 a bottle I doubt I will be trying some...

hapyman

Cue did you get my PM? Check your inbox THanks

hapyman

Cue I think that would be the cheapest way and if you use a good quality glue it will be very rigid. In OMGs instructions I think he used something like rubber cement (can't remember though). But the more you layer the foil the better. 20 layers of foil with some good quick dry epoxy would make for ...

hapyman

For my main shampoo I have been using Dr. Bronner's Castille Soap for awhile now. Either the TTO or Eucalyptus variety. It works good as body soap too. Also a couple of times per week I use the product below and it does a better job of removing sebum and leaves your scalp feeling nice and cool. The ...

hapyman

So this just colors your scalp the same color as your hair?

hapyman

I think it is interesting that laser clinics can provide good results using the 3 x 20 mins or less per week..........and they are using a lot less lasers to achieve this. It is my opinion that more lasers without reducing treatment time is over stimulation in many cases. As is the case with many t...

hapyman

For seb derm I would instantly go for the combination of Coconut Oil and GFSE. Grapefruit Seed Extract (GFSE) can be used full strength in the shower as a rinse or it can be diluted and used in a topical. Could probably add some GFSE to your aloe to make a great combo. In the earlier days before LLL...

hapyman

I usually just stick to a nice clean scalp. It is usually right after a shower so it is still mildly damp. But it may be good to experiment and find the best solution for you.

hapyman

Actually he was using a mixture of polysorbate 80 and alcohol I believe. I think he started a thread about it in the LLLT section, you may want to check it out. But if what you are doing now seems to be working I would stick with it. Or it may be worth a shot to try a couple times and see what happe...

hapyman

I may be missing it but how many servings is that?

hapyman

Yeah that first batch was crappy. Dr. Maricle has since updated the circuit board design. I would let them know and I am sure they will replace them. I have a handful that I need to get replaced as well.

hapyman

Hey cue, I brought up the same thing to IH and basically facial hair responds differently to DHT. Things that are used to regrow hair for MPB sufferers can actually be used to help remove or lessen facial hair growth. For example... Turmeric paste is used in India to help slow facial hair growth. Ho...

hapyman

He sells the beta sis in a premixed solution called muck. It has oils and polysorbate 80 among other things. Usually you then take the muck and mix it with water, alcohol, zinc, & B6 (& maybe a bit more poly 80). Here's a link to where he has the instructions and the place to buy it. http://www.qdbd...

hapyman

It never hurts to experiment with treatment times, that is unless you are trying something completely crazy and irrational :D I now do 10 minutes 2 days in a row and then take a day off. Rinse and repeat. Things seem to be much more stable for me now. Before I felt like I was on a roller coaster rid...

hapyman

The best way is to find an outlet for your emotions, which will basically help you to release them.

I find exercise is very effective. Also look into yoga or some other types of meditation. If you make any of these a part of your weekly schedule I think you have a lot to gain.

hapyman

And who really knows if the growth from LLLT doesn't continue year after year. The longest study is only 12 months. I could imagine that 5 years of LLLT will bring great things.

hapyman

Incidently......I've read that NAC is also a heavy metal chelator....which can only be a good thing i suppose......however, should I expect to 'feel worse before I feel better?' .....I've heard this regarding chelation. I would imagine I need to up my intake of zinc, magnesium, copper and iron whil...

hapyman

Interesting. It's nice to see people are still experimenting with pre-laser topicals. Keep us updated. That sensation usually occurs right after but soreness is more of a delayed response. You will notice it when it happens. It can actually take some time to build up to that for new LLLT users. It t...

hapyman

I have to agree with JDP the pimples around your hairline are a good sign. I have a couple of odd hairs that have popped up through them on my front hairline. One of them is like 1/2 inch from the rest of my hairline, which is actually where my hairline used to be at

hapyman

I'll second swansons. They usually have great deals and you can always find a coupon code for 10% off or more. Like Jacob mentioned the Meriva Turmeric over at swanson's is pretty good. I have been using it for two months and am pretty pleased with it. You can get almost everything on that list ther...

hapyman

We had a few ladies that did LLLT over at regrowth and I believe most had good results too. Unfortunately the majority of hair loss sufferers are male though. Hairless if you are truly worried you can experiment with other treatment times. Just for a week or two try 4 sessions of 10 minutes. Basical...

hapyman

Has anyone really gained at all? I mean it just seams like people shed and then get back what they shed. Seems to me kind of useless. The science seems right but the results are lacking. We know it darkens the grey hair, and gives younger appearance, but does it really give anything worth mentionin...

hapyman

jksl....your def right....vit c does help alot. At present it's the only thing keeping me sane. However I have to take up to 6000mg a throughout the day to keep the symptoms at bay. If go without for a day the sinus pain and malaise return with avengance. I will look into Taurine....if it's an acid...
