Head lice treatment
The LouseBuster™ head lice treatment is a revolutionary new way to kill head lice and their eggs without using pesticides or other chemicals. Clinical studies have shown that the treatment, which uses only controlled heated air, kills all stages of head lice safely, very effectively and fast!
The treatment is highly effective against all head lice infestations, including infestations with pesticide-resistant lice and for individuals who have asthma, allergies, or other conditions that preclude traditional chemical treatments.
The LouseBuster Certified Operator™ will provide you with a Certificate of Treatment card after the treatment. You should make sure the Certificate you receive includes:
• The Operator’s certification number
• An original Proof of Authenticity sticker. For client cleanliness, this sticker certifies that a new, unused applicator tip was used for the treatment.
If a Certificate is not provided or of the proof of Authenticity sticker is missing, please contact Larada Sciences.
The LouseBuster™ treatment is performed by a by trained LouseBuster Certified Operator™ who uses a disposable applicator tip attached to the LouseBuster™ device to direct carefully controlled heated air against the hair roots and scalp where lice and their eggs typically are located. NO CHEMICALS ARE USED! An average of 30 minutes is required to make sure the whole scalp has been treated.
As with any other head lice treatment, after the LouseBuster™ treatment, a comb-out with a fine-tooth louse comb (For example the Licemeister® comb) is strongly recommended to remove most of the dead lice and eggs as well as any unlikely but possible live lice that managed to survive. Depending on the thickness of the hair and the extent of the infestation, this comb-out can take between 15 and 45 minutes and is usually included as part of the treatment service provided by the LouseBuster Team.
Typically, one single treatment is all that is needed! This makes the whole experience relatively quick and efficient, providing less stress and concern to you, our customer.

What to do after treatment
Why choose the LouseBuster™ treatment over any other treatment?
The following graph illustrates how the LouseBuster™ treatment combined with combing is much quicker than a traditional comb-out:
We – as well as the National Pediculosis Association– do recommend that periodiccombing with a louse comb after the treatment is done to guard against re-infestationand / or to make sure that all nits are removed if the school has a no-nit policy.
