How the Capillus Spectrum Works

The Capillus Spectrum uses low-level laser therapy to deliver light energy to the scalp. The goal is to support follicles affected by hereditary thinning and help improve the overall hair growth environment.

The 650nm red laser diodes are designed to target the scalp and follicles, while the 808nm near-infrared lasers are designed to reach deeper scalp tissue.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

The Capillus Spectrum may be a good option if you have thinning hair rather than complete baldness, have early to moderate hereditary hair loss, want a non-surgical treatment option, want to support existing hair after a hair transplant, want an at-home option that takes only 6 minutes daily, or can use the device consistently.

Can the Spectrum Be Used After a Hair Transplant?

Yes. Laser therapy is commonly used as part of a long-term hair maintenance plan after hair transplant surgery.

Many patients begin laser therapy approximately one week after hair transplant surgery, depending on their surgeon’s post-operative instructions.

Can the Spectrum Be Used With Other Treatments?

Yes. The Capillus Spectrum can often be used with other hair loss treatments, including topical minoxidil, oral minoxidil if prescribed, finasteride if appropriate, dutasteride if prescribed, and hair transplant surgery.

How Long Does It Take to See Results?

Results from laser therapy are gradual. Most patients should use the device consistently for several months before judging the result.

Some patients notice reduced shedding first. Others may notice improved hair quality, thickness, or coverage over time.
