Hair loss is rarely just about the hair. Hormones, genetics, inflammation, stress, illness, nutrition, medications, and scalp health can all affect the normal hair-growth cycle. That is why successful hair loss treatment should begin with an accurate diagnosis—not a one-size-fits-all product.
At Las Vegas Integrative Dermatology, we are excited to offer a comprehensive hair and scalp treatment combining medical-grade photobiomodulation with KeraFactor, biomimetic growth factors, peptides, and PDRN. Las Vegas Integrative Dermatology offers hair loss evaluation and hair loss treatment in Las Vegas.
What Is Photobiomodulation? How is it used for Hair Loss Treatment?
Photobiomodulation is the medical term for light therapy that uses specific wavelengths of light to influence cellular activity. Unlike high-energy lasers that heat or remove tissue, photobiomodulation is noninvasive and nonthermal.
When directed at the scalp, photobiomodulation may help:
Support cellular energy production
Improve the environment surrounding the hair follicle
Promote healthy scalp circulation
Reduce inflammatory signals
Support thicker, fuller-looking hair
Complement medical hair-loss treatments
This is not the same as simply purchasing a red-light device online. Wavelength, energy delivery, treatment duration, consistency, and the underlying cause of hair loss all matter.
What Is KeraFactor?
KeraFactor is a professional scalp treatment formulated with biomimetic growth factors, peptides, skin-supporting proteins, and other ingredients selected to improve scalp health and support the appearance of stronger, fuller hair.
Biomimetic growth factors are designed to resemble naturally occurring signaling proteins. These signals play important roles in communication between cells and may help support the environment needed for healthy follicle function.
KeraFactor also uses NanoFluorosome technology designed to complement targeted light exposure and optimize delivery of its scalp supporting ingredients.
Why Add PDRN?
PDRN, or polydeoxyribonucleotide, is an increasingly popular regenerative skincare ingredient composed of purified DNA fragments. It is being studied for its potential role in tissue repair, cellular signaling, and recovery.
In a scalp treatment, PDRN is used to support healthier-looking skin and create a better environment around the hair follicle. It is not a hormone, medication, stem-cell treatment, or replacement for diagnosing the underlying cause of hair loss.
The combination of PDRN, biomimetic growth factors, peptides, and photobiomodulation gives us a multi-step approach:
Support the health of the scalp.
Deliver targeted proteins and signaling ingredients.
Use medical-grade light therapy to complement the treatment.
Combine the procedure with an individualized home and medical treatment plan when appropriate.

Why a Medical Hair Loss Evaluation and Medical Hair Loss Treatment Matters
Hair loss is a symptom—not a diagnosis. Starting a treatment without identifying the cause can delay appropriate care.
A dermatologist may evaluate for:
Androgenetic or pattern hair loss
Telogen effluvium
Thyroid disease
Iron, vitamin, or nutritional deficiencies
Hormonal changes
Autoimmune alopecia
Medication-related shedding
Inflammatory or scarring scalp disorders
Medication associated hair loss
Some forms of hair loss are reversible, while others require early treatment to protect the remaining follicles. No procedure, supplement, or topical product is appropriate for every type of hair loss.
Dermatology Done Differently.
At Las Vegas Integrative Dermatology, we combine traditional medical dermatology with thoughtful, evidence-informed integrative care. We evaluate the hair, scalp, medical history, medications, hormones, nutrition, and potential inflammatory triggers before recommending a plan.
If you are experiencing hair thinning, excessive shedding, widening of your part, a receding hairline, or changes in your scalp, schedule a comprehensive hair-loss consultation.
Healthy hair begins with understanding what is happening beneath the surface.
