LaseMD Ultra
A 1927 nm fractional thulium laser is used to treat selected areas of the scalp.
Laser-Assisted Scalp Treatment · NYC
KeraLase Hair Restoration in New York City
A needle-free, in-office treatment that combines LaseMD Ultra fractional thulium laser technology with topical KeraFactor serum for selected patients with thinning hair.
The laser creates controlled microscopic channels in the scalp before KeraFactor is applied topically to the treatment area.
At Dermatology Circle, KeraLase is considered after evaluating the cause, pattern and stage of hair loss — not simply because thinning is visible.
Our approach
The procedure comes after the diagnosis.
KeraLase is one treatment tool within
an individualized hair-restoration strategy.

The Treatment
What Is KeraLase?
KeraLase combines fractional laser scalp treatment with topical delivery of KeraFactor serum.
It is used as an adjunctive hair-restoration treatment rather than as a replacement for diagnosing and treating the underlying cause of hair loss.
Microscopic Channels
Fractional laser treatment temporarily increases scalp permeability.
KeraFactor After Laser
The proprietary serum is applied topically immediately after laser treatment.
Important distinction
KeraLase may support a broader hair-restoration plan,
but it does not replace medical treatment when
the underlying diagnosis requires it.
Laser-Assisted Topical Delivery
How KeraLase Works.
The treatment uses fractional laser energy to prepare the scalp before KeraFactor is applied topically.
Evaluate
Scalp Assessment
The scalp, pattern of thinning and selected treatment areas are reviewed before the procedure.
Prepare
Fractional Laser
LaseMD Ultra delivers controlled 1927 nm fractional laser energy across the treatment area.
Apply
KeraFactor Serum
KeraFactor is applied topically immediately after the laser portion of treatment.
Finish
Return to Routine
Temporary scalp redness, warmth or sensitivity may occur, but significant downtime is generally not expected.
No injections
Unlike PRP, KeraLase does not require
a blood draw or scalp injections.
Candidate Selection
Who May Benefit From KeraLase?
KeraLase is not equally appropriate for every type or stage of hair loss.
It is generally considered when viable follicles remain and the underlying reason for thinning has already been identified.
Diagnosis first
Hair miniaturization, active shedding,
scalp inflammation and scarring alopecia
require different treatment priorities.

Common use
Pattern Hair Loss
Selected men and women with androgenetic alopecia may consider KeraLase as an adjunctive treatment.
Androgenetic alopeciaTiming matters
Early-to-Moderate Thinning
Regenerative adjuncts are generally more logical while viable follicles remain.
Combination care
Patients Already on Treatment
KeraLase may complement an established medical hair-loss treatment plan rather than replace it.
Selected cases
Persistent Diffuse Thinning
When shedding is active, the possible trigger should be evaluated before an adjunctive procedure is selected.
Telogen effluviumDifferent priority
Inflammatory or Scarring Alopecia
Active inflammatory disease requires control of the underlying process first. KeraLase should not replace therapy intended to prevent permanent follicular loss.
Two Different Approaches
KeraLase vs. PRP.
KeraLase and PRP use different treatment mechanisms and should not be ranked as universally better or worse.
The choice depends on diagnosis, treatment goals, existing therapy and procedural preference.

The clinical decision
Treatment selection should be based on the diagnosis,
stage of hair loss, current therapy, procedural preferences
and realistic expectations.
Evidence · Realistic Expectations
What Do We Know About KeraLase?
KeraLase has a plausible laser-assisted delivery mechanism, but treatment-specific clinical evidence remains limited.
This is why diagnosis and realistic expectations remain especially important when considering the procedure.
Laser-Assisted Delivery
Fractional treatment temporarily alters the scalp barrier before topical serum is applied.
Still Emerging
Treatment-specific evidence remains considerably more limited than for several established hair-loss therapies.
Diagnosis Matters
The cause and stage of hair loss remain more important than the procedure name.
Usually an Adjunct
In chronic pattern hair loss, the broader plan may still require ongoing medical treatment.
Our interpretation
KeraLase may be considered for selected patients
who prefer a non-injectable adjunctive approach,
while the underlying diagnosis is treated appropriately.
Multimodal Hair-Loss Care
KeraLase Is Usually Part of the Plan.
Chronic hair loss often requires more than one type of treatment.
Depending on the diagnosis, KeraLase may be used alongside medical therapy, low-level light therapy, PRP or other selected adjuncts.

Real Patients · Hair Restoration
Before & After.
Hair-restoration results develop gradually, and individual response varies.
Some patients also use medical treatment or additional regenerative therapies as part of their individualized plan.
Individual results vary. Hair-loss treatment plans may include medication, KeraLase, PRP or other therapies depending on the diagnosis.

Hair & Scalp Dermatology · NYC
The Treatment Starts With the Diagnosis.
Board-Certified Dermatologist
Dermatopathologist
Two patients can have similar-looking thinning for entirely different reasons.
Dr. Viktoryia Kazlouskaya evaluates the scalp, clinical pattern and history before determining whether KeraLase has a reasonable role.
When appropriate, trichoscopy, laboratory testing or scalp biopsy can help distinguish pattern hair loss, shedding disorders and inflammatory alopecias.
Practice principle
The goal is not to choose a procedure first.
It is to identify what the hair loss requires
and then select the appropriate tools.

KeraLase FAQ
Questions Patients Often Ask.
Treatment suitability, schedule and aftercare depend on the individual diagnosis and scalp condition.
Schedule an evaluation01 What is KeraLase?
KeraLase combines fractional treatment with the LaseMD Ultra 1927 nm thulium laser and subsequent topical application of KeraFactor serum.
02 Does KeraLase require injections?
No. KeraLase does not require scalp injections or a blood draw. KeraFactor is applied topically after fractional laser treatment.
03 How is KeraLase different from PRP?
PRP involves a blood draw, preparation of platelet-rich plasma and scalp injections. KeraLase uses fractional laser treatment followed by topical KeraFactor.
04 Is KeraLase better than PRP?
There is not enough comparative evidence to say that one is universally superior. Treatment selection depends on diagnosis, goals and procedural preference.
05 Does KeraLase hurt?
Most patients tolerate treatment well. Temporary warmth, tingling, redness or scalp sensitivity may occur.
06 Is there downtime?
Significant downtime is generally not expected, although temporary redness or sensitivity may occur.
07 How many KeraLase treatments are needed?
A typical initial program may include approximately six treatments separated by about four to six weeks. The schedule may be individualized.
08 When might I notice a change?
Hair changes develop gradually, so meaningful assessment generally occurs over several months.
09 Can KeraLase be combined with medication?
Yes. Depending on the diagnosis, KeraLase may be used alongside medical therapy or other selected adjunctive hair-restoration treatments.
10 How should I prepare?
Arrive with a clean, dry scalp and avoid styling products in the treatment area. Individual instructions may vary.
11 Who may need to postpone KeraLase?
Active scalp infection, significant inflammation or other medical considerations may require treatment to be postponed.
