These photons are absorbed by weak cells to encourage hair growth.
In 1967 professor andre mester began using low power lasers in medicine.
A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation the term laser originated as an acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.
Class 3 lasers are called cold lasers because their lower energy output doesn t cause the same thermal effects as the high powered lasers in the class 4 category.
