iRestore Hair Growth System – Thickening Formula

Serums are the latest beauty product to increase optimal hair growth.  As women, we undergo several health factors such as hormone changes, poor diet, and stress that can have an impact our hair.  In addition, hair is part of the largest organ (on the body) which is our skin or epidermis.  Skin care goes hand in hand with Hair care for several reasons:

  1. Every season has an impact on hair follicles – from the environment.
  2. Consuming the right amount of vitamins and minerals extends hair growth.

I had the opportunity to use the iRestore Hair Growth System. Due to body changes and child-birth my hair root has changed.  This is also the reason I became natural (chemical-free) while seeking to have a healthy scalp.

The iRestore Hair Growth System was easy to use (a few drops daily) and I have reduced seasonal shedding. With the use of this product, I’m looking forward to hair growth over the next few months!

Learn more about the company below:

For those looking to grow thicker and healthier hair due to thinning hair, Freedom Laser Therapy, maker of the FDA-cleared laser hair loss medical device, The Hair Growth Serum was developed using an advanced thickening formula, Redensyl®, that is clinically proven to stimulate hair growth for both men and women who suffer from alopecia.

“The loss or thinning of your hair can be traumatic and frustrating. Having experienced it myself, I sought to discover a way to help those in similar situations,” said Craig Nabat, CEO of Freedom Laser Therapy. “First we launched the iRestore device, and now, we have introduced the Hair Growth Serum. We’re excited to offer customers a non-invasive solution––made of natural ingredients––that proliferates hair growth and allows users to have more beautiful hair without negative side effects.”

The Hair Growth Serum is formulated with patented molecules, Redensyl® and Vitamin E & B, designed to reactivate hair stem cell activity and nourish hair follicles to promote optimal hair growth. By applying 1ml two times a day directly onto the scalp in areas of hairloss, users can expect to see significant visible results in as little as three months.

The iRestore Hair Growth Serum is developed and made in the United States. It is sold for $39.99 for a 2oz. / 60ml bottle and is available for purchase now on iRestore’s website.
