Posted August 06, 2013 12:48 PM

From Crave: gorgeous gadgets and other crushworthy stuff. - CNET:

"Amen!" to that ...

"has been shown to increase growth up to 39 percent after 16 weeks of therapy"

"Yeah", an INCREASE of 39% over nothing is STILL nothing...!

"Developer Apira Science says this is nearly twice as much growth at more than twice the speed of other LLLTs on the market"

"DITTO!" ... Twice nothing is STILL nothing ... !

WHERE ARE THE "Consumer Reports" results of REAL tests on REAL (balding) test-subjects...?
