From topical hair loss foams to advanced LLLT devices, men and women have a wide range of methods for treating their alopecia. They've all been designed and formulated for safety and effectiveness. We can categorize these solutions into two categories: non-surgical and surgical options

Non-surgical

  • Low-level laser therapy (LLLT)

    Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-power lasers to stimulate hair growth. The light energy from the lasers penetrates the scalp and promotes blood circulation to the hair follicles, which can lead to thicker, fuller hair.

  • Topical foam treatments

    Topical foam treatments for hair growth typically contain minoxidil, which helps to widen blood vessels and increase blood flow to hair follicles. This increased blood flow can lead to thicker, fuller hair growth.

  • Prescription medications

    Prescription medications for hair growth, such as finasteride and dutasteride, work by inhibiting the production of DHT, a hormone that contributes to male pattern baldness. By reducing DHT levels, these medications can slow or even reverse hair loss in some individuals.

Surgical

  • Strip Donor Transplant

    Strip donor transplant is a surgical procedure that involves removing a strip of scalp from the back of the head, which is then dissected into individual hair follicles and transplanted to areas of hair loss. This procedure is typically used to treat male pattern baldness and can result in natural-looking hair growth.

  • Follicular Unit Transplant

    Follicular unit transplant is a hair restoration surgery that involves removing individual hair follicles from a donor area on the scalp and transplanting them to areas of hair loss. This procedure can result in a natural-looking hairline and fuller, thicker hair growth.

  • Robotic FUE Transplant

    Robotic FUE transplant is a minimally invasive hair restoration surgery that uses robotic technology to extract individual hair follicles from a donor area on the scalp and transplant them to areas of hair loss. This procedure can provide precise and consistent results with minimal scarring.

Compare Capillus Laser Caps

We’re Serious About Facts.

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.

Are Capillus products safe for women?

Yes. Unlike some prescription medications for hair loss, Capillus low-level laser therapy (LLLT) products are safe for use by women.

In fact, the convenience and effectiveness of personal LLLT products makes the Capillus products the first choice among many hair restoration surgeons who treat women suffering with thinning, shedding, or balding.

Why should I choose Capillus over other brands of laser therapy caps?

Capillus revolutionized the hair restoration industry with the Capillus laser cap a decade ago by making professional-strength laser therapy available to hair loss patients at home. Capillus was the first laser therapy cap to be cleared by the US FDA for treatment of androgenetic alopecia. Since then, many have tried to imitate. Don't settle when it comes to your hair health.

At Capillus, we prioritize excellence above all else. Capillus caps are designed, engineered and assembled in our US-based, ISO13485-certified facility. We only use the highest quality, medical-grade lasers.

We offer choices in models making our caps affordable. We accept most credit cards and offer several payment options, including various financing options making it more affordable.

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.
