“I use the Laser Brush personally and also encourage use of the Laser Brush with my patients. I have witnessed great results with its continued use. I believe as time goes on and others see the amazing results being achieved, this mode of therapy will become an integral part of the hair restoration formula.
Again, thank you very much for the opportunity to serve on your advisory board. I am excited and fully committed to your products.”
