Abstract

In 1967 a few years after the first working laser was invented, Endre Mester in Semmelweis University Budapest, Hungary wanted to find out if laser might cause cancer. He took some mice, shaved the hair off their backs, divided them into two groups and gave a laser treatment with a low powered ruby laser to one group. They did not get cancer and to his surprise the hair on the treated group grew back more quickly than the untreated group. That was how “laser biostimulation†effects were discovered. (Effect of laser on hair Growth of mice (in Hungarian). Mester E, Szende B and Tota, J (1967). Kiserl Orvostud 19. 628-631).
