Female Pattern Baldness

Female pattern baldness typically begins to appear around menopause. Hair starts to thin in the area where it's parted. Over time, hair becomes noticeably thinner and shorter, although complete baldness is rare in women.

For women, there is a chart that you can use to help identify which stage of the hair loss process you are in. This scale is known as the Ludwig-Savin scale.

Are there any non-surgical options for treatment?

Laser Caps

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) uses safe, low-energy lasers to help stimulate hair follicles and promote hair growth. The lasers penetrate the scalp and help increase blood flow to the hair follicles, providing them with the nutrients they need to grow healthy hair.

Are there clinical trials that support the efficacy of Capillus?

Yes. Capillus Laser devices only use clinically proven technology. In fact, the premiere laser therapy cap model from Capillus - the CapillusPro model - has been proven effective through an independently reviewed clinical trial for which results have been published in an esteemed medical journal, Dermatologic Surgery. Dermatologic Surgery is a monthly peer-reviewed journal published by American Society for Dermatologic Surgery that deals with the subject matter of dermatology.

The CapillusPro device has been clinically proven in a double-blind clinical study registered on ClinicalTrials.gov and managed by a neutral third party.* Clinical trial data indicated that low-level laser treatment of the scalp for 17 weeks with the CapillusPro device significantly improved hair counts by 51% in study participants who used the active (non-placebo) device. Subjects were able to use the device on a self-treatment, home-use basis. No side-effects of any kind were reported from clinical trial participants. The CapillusPro was proven to be a safe and effective treatment for androgenic alopecia within the appropriate stages of hair loss and skin tones as per FDA clearance.

Please note that the results mentioned above are specifically for the CapillusPro model. There have been no clinical trials to date on the other Capillus models to be able to assert an exact percent of average increase of hair.

*See details of clinical trials at ClinicalTrials.gov

There have also been many other clinical trials that support the efficacy of low-level laser technology for treatment of androgenetic alopecia.

Is Capillus good for use after hair transplant procedures?

Yes, Capillus uses safe, low-level lasers to stimulate, energize, and renew cells within the hair follicle for thicker, healthier hair. It also helps those who’ve undergone a hair transplant procedure to protect the new hair growth. Follow your transplant physician's directions for follicle support after transplant. for your customers.

What is the difference between lasers and LEDs for hair regrowth?

Capillus laser therapy devices use only medical grade laser diodes as a light source. What does this mean? You get the right amount of light energy exactly where you need it. Capillus uses lasers because the output penetrates deeper, better and is clinically proven to be therapeutic for their specific purpose.

Laser light does not spread as much as LEDs over the same distance, which allows lasers to penetrate tissue to a deeper level with higher concentration. For photobiomodulation therapy, the farther the light is from the target, the less intense and less effective the treatment will be.

For light therapy to be effective, it needs to reach the cells that respond well to photobiomodulation therapy.

LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulation of Emitted Radiation. This simply means that a source of light is amplified within a gain medium and emitted in a specific way. LASER produces a very intense beam of light which has the following properties:

  • Monochromatic (meaning it consists of one wavelength)
  • Coherent (meaning all parts are in phase)
  • Collimated (meaning all parts travel in one and same direction)

LED stands for Light-emitting Diode. And it’s pretty much just that. A diode that emits light when electricity passes through it. Often in pretty colors.

LED light can produce collimated light (with a focusing lens) but not coherent light thus they do not concentrate all their power in a coherent beam. Laser diodes by definition produce effective collimated and coherent light output.

Key Differences Between the Capillus Caps?

While each of the Capillus caps has numerous similar features, the primary difference between them is a difference in scalp coverage, as well as total energy output. What does more lasers mean? Density of lasers translates to density of results. With more lasers per inch you will see results over more areas, for even more results noticeable faster.
