3 TAKING CONTROL OF HAIR LOSS Hair Loss Control Clinic Restoring Hope for Men & Women across the Globe by Anna Charles Alanna Calloway VP Brand Management Hair Loss Control Clinic Now there s good news for people who suffer from hair loss Hair Loss Control Clinic (HLCC ). Until recently, HLCC has been the best kept secret for hair re-growth. Leading the charge to reach out and educate the public is Alanna Calloway, Vice President of HLCC s Brand Management. What is the message that she and HLCC s DFW-based affiliate owners have for INFORM readers? The scientifically-based, multi-therapeutic, all-natural program is designed to deliver maximum results. It has worked for thousands of clients worldwide. If you are a man or a woman suffering from hair loss, you may be an ideal candidate. All it takes is a free consultation. There are no gimmicks. No false promises. No high pressure sales tactics. Each consultation is customized, informative and in-depth, to help you make a decision that can change your life. Low Level Light Therapy Based Programs Changes the Face of the Hair Loss Industry Imagine a proven solution that can stop excessive hair loss and actually stimulate re-growth. We re not talking about hair pieces or weaves, but actual hair re-growth! HLCC s program combines unique, superior hair loss products with advanced, state-of-theart hair loss lasers. All treatment components, which are customized to meet each client s individual needs, are non-invasive and natural. The low-level laser treatments are painless. There s no surgery involved, and no recovery or downtime. Bill Blatter CEO/President HLCC Corporate Office 4 Avis Drive Latham, NY Bill Blatter, HLCC s owner and CEO, started using the program close to a decade ago and experienced first-hand how well it can work. It stopped my hair loss and I got back all the hair I had lost for five years, he stated. It s great to know that we are helping so many people who suffer from hair loss. Our company s longevity and growth is a testament to this. HLCC has been in business for 23 years. We have grown from a single clinic to over 155 affiliates in 23 countries around the world. We re making a huge impact on the hair loss industry, but best of all, we re changing the lives of people who suffer from hair loss. With three medical directors, (Dr. Michael Fuhrman, Dr. Santiago Alvarez, and Dr. Michael S. Albert) who are leaders in their field, HLCC tests new therapies in their own company clinics. We determine what works and what doesn t. Our excellent reputation and the reputation of our affiliates are important. Once a solution is thoroughly tested and proven to work in our clinics, it s made generally available to our affiliates. Mr. Blatter noted that although men are still a slightly larger percentage of hair loss suffers, women are the fastest growing number and the most underserved group. Fifty percent of all women will have thinning hair by middle age. We are thrilled to help both men and women stop excess hair loss and re-grow hair. We do what it takes to help clients that are good candidates for the program, get results. The initial consultation is in-depth, taking anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. We re honest and straight-forward, and ask questions including medical questions, to help understand what may be causing the hair loss. Does HLCC always work for everyone? If we don t think our solution is right for you, we are up-front and explain why, Mr. Blatter said. There s a lot of misinformation in the marketplace about hair loss, and some false promises. Our goal is simple; to stop excessive hair loss and help you re-grow your own hair. If you aren t a good candidate, we are honest and tell you during your free consultation. Our program is medically-based, not sales-based. For us, it s about treatment that delivers results, not about sales. JUNE 2010 INFORM 31

4 Multi-therapeutic Approach; Optimal Results HLCC is offers a multi-therapeutic approach with different options. Treatments are customized to the client to help yield maximum results. Most hair loss physicians and clinic professionals have found that they get the best results by combining laser therapy with high quality products for good scalp hygiene, good hair nutrition, DHT blockers, and growth activators like Minoxidil and topical DHT blockers, Mr. Blatter said. DHT (dehydrotestosterone), a natural metabolite of the human body, causes around 95 percent of all hair loss. It shortens the hair s natural growth phase and resting phase, causing the hair follicles to eventually shrink and die. Fortunately, even with thinning, fine hairs, if there is still life at the follicular level, it can usually be repaired by the HLCC regimen. Mr. Blatter explained that HLCC topical products are the equivalent of doubleand triple-strength Minoxidil. Clients can take advantage of advanced in-office laser therapy, as well as at-home treatment options, including a low-level handheld laser. Regular check-ups are conducted to monitor the success of at-home treatments, adjust treatment protocols if needed, and help ensure proper at-home compliance.

5 Testimonials HLCC has been a Godsend! Katherine: FT Worth, TX - Stylemakers Katherine began losing her hair after being treated in the hospital with antibiotics that made it difficult to eat for 11 days. I kept looking for a solution and didn t want to take no for answer, said Katherine, a nurse. I did a lot of research on the topic. There s so much misinformation out there, and so many different treatments for hair loss, I was fearful at first. Often people with hair loss are so hopeful they will try just about anything and usually end up wasting their money. During my research I found Shelly Beatty, and made an appointment for a consultation. In addition to being natural, the HLCC treatment program reflected much of the scientific information and dermatological studies on hair loss that I d read about. After my first laser treatment my hair loss stopped. Shelly educated me on the protocol, and I kept on it strictly. After just one month, I could run my fingers through my hair and it felt healthier and fuller. After three months I could visibly see considerable new hair growth. It s amazing! What would Katherine tell someone who is struggling with hair loss? Go in for a consultation. They will tell you right out whether the treatment can or cannot help you. If it can, go for it! I am so glad that I did. HLCC Hair Loss Clients are Thrilled! After only five weeks of laser treatment I already have hair growth. I m ecstatic! Lauren: FT Worth, TX - Stylemakers After being diagnosed with Grave s disease (an autoimmune disorder that leads to over-activity of the thyroid gland), Lauren started to lose her hair. It was horrible to experience hair loss! confided Lauren, who is a nurse. Shelly Beatty thought I would be a good candidate for HLCC treatments because I have follicles, but they aren t normal. She is professional, honest and trustworthy. I decided to try it. After 5 weeks of treatment I already have hair re-growth. I can feel the difference too. My hair has body and feels thicker and stronger. This is fantastic! Hair loss is a sensitive issue, especially for women. I would recommend to anyone with hair loss, to go for a consultation. They will honestly tell you if you are a good candidate or not, so there s really nothing to lose. I knew laser treatments would work, but have been surprised with the results. My hair is re-growing and it s thicker in general. I even find myself having to get haircuts more often. John J.: Frisco, TX - Elite Med Spa John is a laser service engineer who has made a lifetime career in lasers. He understands the science behind laser rejuvenation and takes advantage of a variety of laser treatments. When he began to notice hair loss, it was natural for him to choose the HLCC solution at Dr. Calderon s Elite MedSpa that includes laser therapy. Lasers today treat everything from wrinkles and lax skin to pain management. I know the science and understood how laser therapy can stimulate hair re-growth, compared to using only topical products. After four months of treatments it s working great! I can feel it and see it in the mirror as well as in the high definition imaging at Dr. Calderon s office. I am very pleased. John carefully follows the product regimen, but has opted to receive all laser treatments at Dr. Calderon s office versus using a hand-held device at home. Because it s more powerful, I believe in-office laser treatments will enhance my hair re-growth. JUNE 2010 INFORM 33

6 HAIR LOSS CONTROL CLINIC AFFILIATES Helping Men & Women Throughout the Metroplex Stop Excess Hair Loss & Re-Grow their own Hair Shelia F. Calderon, MD Elite MedSpa 5729 Lebanon Road, Suite 180 Frisco, TX Shelia F. Calderon, MD, added HLCC hair loss therapy to her services at Elite MedSpa in Treating patients for 30 years, Dr. Calderon is known for her down-to-earth personality, making it easy for patients to open up and relate to her. Dr Calderon personally performs all procedures and meets with you at your consultations. It s phenomenal how strongly we feel about our hair, Dr. Calderon said. The first thing people see is your face, and hair is a big part of it. Great hair is loved and admired by everyone. Baldness and hair loss affects men and women of all ages and races. Female hair loss isn t talked about as much as male hair loss, but it s a huge problem. Many ethnic woman (hispanic, black, and Asian) as well white women suffer from hair loss starting in the front of the scalp. For women, their hair is often closely associated with their feeling of femininity and sense of well-being. Often women experiencing hair loss are also undergoing other stressfull events to include thyroid problems, estrogen or testosterone changes, skin changes, chemotherapy, weight gain and more. Hair loss in addition to these things can be overwhelming. When I help a patient stop excessive hair loss and re-grow their hair, it s very exciting. Most people with moderate hair loss begin to notice a difference in the thickness and strength of their hair in about three weeks. Within six to twelve weeks they can see hair re-growth coming. After undergoing HLCC treatment and achieving your goal and most people do, you follow an easy maintenance routine, Dr. Calderon explained. Your body is always changing. It s like maintaining your teeth, nails, or skin. Why don t more people take advantage of the HLCC program? The word is spreading, but people cling to the belief that it s not for them, or they give up and believe they just have to live with male or female pattern baldness. The good news is that we can help not only with hair re-growth, but improve broken and damaged hair. Our laser strengthens and thickens the hair when damage occurs from a hairstyle that involve things like pulling and extensions. Other causes of hair damage include chemicals, blow dryers, and not using correct products for your hair. Dr. Calderon answers common questions her patients ask about hair loss treatment. What color will my new hair grow out to be? Dr. Calderon: It will be the color of the hair follicle that the hair was prior to becoming dormant (no longer growing). For some, that color is gray and for others, it is the original color of the hair that fell out and no longer grows on its own. Why does this laser technique work? Dr. Calderon: Our new laser has the strongest number of laser diodes in the Metroplex and is able to thoroughly stimulate the hair follicle growth pattern, while also increasing the strength of the hair. We also have the most effective products to continue to allow growth and support your hair follicles between treatments. Is this laser therapy for hair loss dangerous? Dr. Calderon: There are no reported side effects to our laser therapy which is painless, non-toxic, and may be combined with our products between laser sessions. Are the reasons for male and female pattern baldness the same and does the laser work the same way for both sexes? Dr. Calderon: Yes both men and woman have the hormone (Dihydrotestosterone DHT) that causes increased hair loss, thinning hair follicles and eventual hair follicle death. All hair follicles have androgen receptors that will accept the hormone and allow hair loss. What affects hair growth? Dr. Calderon: Our products remove the sebum on the scalp. Sebum holds the DHT in the hair follicle receptor site, thus aiding in hair loss. Our Maximum Hair Growth product (MGH) attaches to the hair follicle and blocks the DHT from causing hair loss.

7 Shelly Beatty Hair Restoration Director Stylemakers Inc W Lancaster Ave Fort Worth, TX Shelly Beatty, owner of Stylemakers, has been doing hair for 29 years. Many of my clients have been with me the entire time. We ve all gone through phases in our lives together, including male and female hair loss. After thyroid surgery and treatment I experienced hair loss. I did a lot of research then a friend contacted me about HLCC in I decided to try it first, before offering it to my general client base. It s my name and my reputation. I have to sleep at night and will never offer something I don t personally believe in. Two men and two women agreed to try it with me. Using only the hand-held laser and HLCC products, it worked pretty quickly. I was impressed with the results and became an HLCC affiliate about a year ago. The training I received to become certified was remarkable. HLCC has clients from all over the country and around the world. Their on-going education and support for their affiliates is exceptional. People ask me if HLCC really works, and I m living proof. Due to my thyroid condition, my hair receded severely at my temples. With treatment, it has completely filled back in, Shelly confided. I am up front with clients during the consultation. I explain what is happening to their hair at the follicular level, and whether or not HLCC is likely to work for them. If they want to move forward, they commit to a year of treatment. Some people respond very quickly. For others, it takes a little longer for hair re-growth to become noticeable. During each check-up appointment I take high resolution pictures of the follicles being treated, and compare them visit-to-visit to help determine progress. Once my client s goals are achieved, they go on an easy-to-follow maintenance program. Forever Hair Image Nation 3033 West Parker Rd. Plano, TX Forever Hair Image Nation Med Spa 190 E. Stacy Rd., Suite 1724 Allen, TX Angela Dodson, owner of Forever Hair, has been in the hair care business since Today, she focuses solely on hair re-growth versus styling services. Specializing in fine thinning hair for years, Angela began researching solutions for hair loss and talked to an industry friend who was using a hand-held laser to re-grow hair. I was both intrigued and excited to hear about a treatment that regrow your own hair. I have found that topical treatments alone don t work very well. HLCC s multi-therapeutic approach is different. There s so much misinformation and products in the marketplace that don t work. My message to men and women suffering from hair loss is: You re not alone and don t give up! HLCC is proven to work. Stop in for a consultation to see if HLCC is right for you. Don t waste another moment. Stop the excess hair loss and re-grow your own hair! It really can change your life. I have tried everything for hair loss but nothing has helped. I have done a lot of research and am very excited to start the HLCC treatments. Heather, Sherman TX Heather s hair loss started in her early 20s. I ve seen several different physicians. There s no underlying illness causing my hair loss. It s heredity, explained Heather, a Registered Nurse. My mother told me about Angela Dodson and HLCC. During the consultation I had a lot of questions. I spoke with Angela and also a corporate representative from HLCC. It was very informative. Hair loss for women is a sensitive subject. I think it s more accepted for men to have hair loss. When it happens to a woman, it s heart-breaking. I felt like it has been out of my control because everything I have tried that might fix it, has not worked. Thankfully, I didn t give up hope. This led me to look for another solution and ultimately, HLCC. Mahvash Garrett, Pharmacist Ultimate Hair Solutions Preston Doctors Center 8215 Westchester Drive, Suite 150 Dallas, Texas Mahvash Garrett, a pharmacist, became aware of and interested in HLCC through a friend. My friend, Mr. Hamid, was concerned about his own hair loss. He was excited about the approach, and asked me to come to the consultation with him in Fort Worth. At that point I researched HLCC. All the information we gathered about the company and this unique multi-therapeutic treatment program was exciting and promising. The combination with the cool laser treatments result in a safe and effective outcome. Mahvash was so impressed with the HLCC System that she decided to open a Hair Loss Control Clinic in Dallas directed by HLCC physicians. Mr. Hamid was the catalyst. Because of him I found an effective way to help people stop excessive hair loss and re-grow hair. It gives people hope. Hair loss can be heart-breaking, especially in women who are naturally focused on preserving their appearance. It s exciting to offer the HLCC Multi-therapeutic Treatment Programs that very easy and affordable. The treatment program includes undergoing non-invasive, painless laser treatments. In addition to laser therapy, in our location we offer hair restoration by Mr. Hamid. Mahvash also finds use a capiliscope to view the scalp at the follicular level highly practical. During the client s evaluation take images of the scalp that are magnified times. This helps us determine if the client is a good candidate for the HLCC system. After treatment begins we compare high definition images to track results. It s exciting for us and for the client to see the beginnings of hair re-growth and how they progress over time.
