What is a Low-Level Laser Therapy?
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) uses red light at specific wavelengths to stimulate hair follicles, improve circulation to the scalp, and slow hair loss while encouraging thicker regrowth. It is FDA-cleared for androgenetic (pattern) hair loss in both men and women.
In-office sessions take about 20 to 30 minutes and are done in a series; many patients also use at-home laser caps or combs between visits. Results are gradual — reduced shedding within a few months and visible thickening over 6 months or more — and it works best combined with other treatments like PRP or medication.
LLLT is painless with no downtime. Pricing is per in-office session; at-home devices are a separate one-time purchase.
How much does a Low-Level Laser Therapy cost?
In-office low-level laser therapy nationally typically costs $200 to $400 per session, with a series recommended. At-home laser caps are a separate one-time purchase.
