Why Choose Pediatric Hair Solutions
We kill ALL live bugs as a first step with our physician formulated, non-toxic treatment solution.
Why is this important? The first step in any lice treatment must be to kill ALL live bugs. By killing all live activity, the patient is no longer contagious. This prevents the spread of lice and cross contamination in the treatment environment.
Why doesn’t everyone use this step first?
Other lice treatment providers cut this first step out in order to get clients in and out of their doors faster. However, use of a heated air device applied to a patient with live lice will NOT kill all bugs. That means there is a risk of cross contamination as the bugs can be blown around the room from the heated air device. One study shows an older heat device used at other lice clinics kills only 84% of live bugs. Instead of applying solution first to kill the bugs, other clinics use this as a last step.
Our clinical study proves > 99% effectiveness
Our medical protocol of applying treatment solution first to kill live bugs, followed by a heated air device treatment to dessicate all lice eggs was shown in a clinical study of 281 patients to be > 99% effective. The protocol also includes the application of treatment solution following the heat treatment in order to prevent reinfestation.
We are a Licensed Healthcare Practice
Why does that matter? Head lice is a communicable disease. Like any other disease, you’ll want to be treated by medical professionals. Our HIPAA compliant medical practices have private treatment rooms to protect patient privacy and prevent cross contamination. We follow universal precautions required of medical practices and strict disinfecting protocols.
Other lice treatment providers are business owners with no medical background who simply operate as a franchise. They also treat patients in an open setting with treatment chairs next to one another. This increases the chance for cross contamination and decreases a patient’s privacy.
30 day 100% Guarantee
We are so confident in the full effectiveness of our treatment services, Pediatric Hair Solutions is the only lice treatment clinic that offers a 100% guarantee for patients treated with our FloSonix heated air device.
Insurance Reimbursement
Because we are a licensed healthcare practice, our services are reimbursable by many insurance plans and we are the only lice treatment provider with a full time insurance staff member who will re-file insurance claims on your behalf. We have an approximate 80-85% reimbursement rate.
