LaserCap Therapy
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT)
LaserCapTM is a portable laser cap that can be worn under any normal hat
Innovative Hair Loss Management Device
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) works in the same way as Minoxidil, by stimulating the follicles to lengthen the growth cycle but the application is different.
There are many types of lasers to combat hair loss on the market but most require the patient to comb the laser back and forth through the hair for at least 15 minutes which means that these types of lasers are not very effective as the application is too haphazard and tiresome.
At the Knudsen Clinic we sell LaserCapTM which is a portable laser cap that can be worn under any normal hat.
The amount of LLLT that is applied to the scalp is critical to the success of this therapy. It works best in earlier cases of thinning and it is required to be used a minimum 30-45 minutes, 3 times a week.
The LaserCapTM is the most powerful LLLT device on the market and is easy to use, with no side effects.

Frequently Asked Questions
The LaserCap is a home-use medical device indicated to treat hair loss in men and women with androgenic alopecia. It is a light and flexible cap, lined with laser diodes, and designed to be worn discretely underneath most hats. LaserCap is powered by a portable and rechargeable battery pack, and when turned on, it illuminates your hair follicles with 650 nm red light. This specific kind of light can be absorbed by the cells of your hair follicles where it is converted into energy that is used to promote hair growth. This is a treatment called Low-Level-Laser Therapy, or LLLT, which has been shown in many high quality studies to be effective at treating thinning and balding due to androgenic alopecia.
It is recommended you use LaserCap for 30 minutes every other day. However, your prescribing doctor may recommend an alternative treatment protocol.
If you are compliant with your treatment protocol, typically you will have noticeable improvement in 4 to 6 months.
Like all other non surgical-treatments for hair-loss, improvements may gradually decrease if use is discontinued.
LaserCap results may vary between patients. Some patients experience a reversal of their hair loss, whereas for others the progression of their hair loss may stop or slow. Patients with advanced hair loss may also not attain meaningful results with LaserCap alone. These characteristics are common to all non-surgical treatments for hair loss.
The LaserCap has an excellent safety profile and is not associated with any serious adverse side effects. A small percentage of LaserCap users have reported a mild headache, and minor pruritus of the scalp (an itchy or tingling sensation). If experienced at all, these side effects are always transient, occurring only during use.
Yes! LaserCap is effective in both men and women.
