Abstract in brief

  • This study compared the effectiveness and safety of low-level light therapy (LLLT), topical minoxidil 5%, and a combination of both in treating female pattern hair loss, finding that all methods improved hair growth with the combination therapy showing the best results.
  • All three treatments showed similar safety profiles and benefits in increasing hair follicles, with the combined therapy leading to higher patient satisfaction and more significant hair regrowth, especially noticeable in later months.
  • The results suggest that LLLT is a safe and effective option comparable to minoxidil, but using both together may provide quicker and more noticeable hair regrowth for women suffering from this type of hair loss.]
