The Science Behind Red Light Therapy for Hair Growth

Hair thinning and hair loss are concerns for millions of people worldwide, but red light therapy (RLT) is emerging as a clinically backed, non-invasive solution. But does it really work? Let’s dive into the science behind red light therapy for hair regrowth and why devices like VikaGlow™ are changing the game.


How Red Light Therapy Works

Red light therapy uses low-level laser wavelengths (650nm-670nm) that penetrate the scalp to:

• Stimulate blood circulation, increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery to follicles

• Rejuvenate dormant hair follicles, triggering natural regrowth cycles

• Improve scalp health, reducing inflammation that contributes to hair loss


What Studies Show

• A 2019 study in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy found that red light therapy significantly increased hair count and thickness.

• The FDA has cleared red light therapy devices as safe and effective for hair regrowth.


Who Can Benefit?

Red light therapy is ideal for men and women experiencing:

• Thinning hair

• Hair shedding

• Slow hair growth

• Early signs of baldness
