i tot Hairmax SE cost about $688SGD? IIRC, the SE version is even weaker than the standard hairmax comb. anyway, maybe $560SGD is consider cheap for a hairmax.
the thing i don't like about hairmax is how low the actual cost is and they jack up the price many fold. it use a single laser diodes and reflect the light into several beam and call it multiple beam, simple thing like a metal reflector to split the laser and the comb "teeth" to comb the hair they call it a special patent design, as well as a metal weight in the handle to make it heavier so people tot the quality is there etc... i just feel their product is too cornny. worst thing? they are saying the price will increase after FDA clearance. of course, i give them credit on doing all the trial.
if it is doing something for you, maybe it worth it.

i not an expert in laser. if you ask me for my 2cents, i think it should be fine to use. firstly, to address your concern.
1) all treatment that actually grow hair for you. if you stop using it, it will cause a massive shed and then return to baseline(original haircount). it will not cause to you to lose more than you have at the first place. you will simply return to where you should be if you didn't start any treatment. of course if you start again, you might not be able to get back to your best result. so the story is to be consistent in any treatement.
2) so far laser have been use for many years and it have been proven to be quite safe. of course there is still no study that show long term use like 10years of more is safe. but since laser is not an new technology, someone will sure report of any problem before it hit you. so should not be a problem. LLLT have quite a good record on safety.
3) one of the reason i read on using laser 2-3times per week after the initial "dosing" period of daily use by some is not to let your hair become "use" to it. how true this is i not sure. others believe it does not matter. the safe bet is use it 2-3times per week.
4) if you ask me do i believe laser work? base on all that i read and learn, i still a doubting thomas. but it one of the treatment with good evident and feedback therefore i am willing to give it a try. further more it have FDA backing now. i think it should be like most treatment which work for some but not all. somemore, with the laser brush selling at a good price and most of the things i read about it is positive, no point not trying since i tried lots of funny stuffs already. from proven stuff like minoxidil, finasteride, spiro and Avodart to Apple vinegar with chilli powder. you name it, i tried it. haha... just left a few good one like RU, Dr. Proctor products etc which i find it a bit too expensive.
5) ok. if you are interested drop me an PM.
If you are lazy get propecia then, like me :>
Feel that I'm in a LL situation right now, so wish to buy. But I think I'm consider as newbie bah. But I'm willing to provide my detail to gain ur trust, can I, Isopropyl?
