South Korea has always been at the forefront when it comes to cosmetology and remedying unfortunate genetics with experimental treatments. The latest innovation from the plastic surgery capital of the world, however, wonโt require you to go under the knife for the incredible benefit. This is the LG Pra.L MediHairโฆ and itโs an actual hair growth/regrowth helmet.
Approved by South Koreaโs drug safety ministry, the LG Pra.L MediHair is a wearable device that is based on Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) โ an approved treatment for androgenetic alopecia. Otherwise known as male-pattern baldness.

Combining 146 lasers and 104 LED lights, the LG hair growth helmet stimulates hair follicle stem cells in whatโs known as the bulge region to support and facilitate hair growth (obviously); as well as slowing down male pattern baldness.
According to a clinical study conducted by the Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, participants who used this very hair regrowth helmet three times a week for a total run of 16 weeks reportedly saw a noticeable improvement in both hair density and thickness.
Thereโs no word on when the LG Pra.L MediHair hair growth helmet will be commercially available just yet nor the international/domestic pricing (although one is currently available on eBay for around $2,000).
All we know is that itโs on the way and the sunโs shining brighter for skin kings.
