Does iRestore cap work for thinning and shedding hair?

Question

I’m interested in finding a solution to my hairloss. My reg doc did some blood work and doesn't see a reason for my hairloss. Also saw a derm and that was no help either. Had PRP done and didn’t see results. So now I’m interested in trying I restore cap to see if this can help me hair. Does this actually work? Or is there another laser cap that does?

Excellent question. Yes, the LLLT may help but we should be sure about your hair loss diagnostic before starting any medical (Minoxidil 2% or 5%) and/or non- medical (laser therapy) treatments. I will suggest you to ask for a 3rd opinion with local and experienced hair loss specialist. Good luck.

I like Capillus for my patients.  The Capillus RX is prescription only.  It has 312 diodes which is why it is prescription only.   It only takes 6 minutes a day.   We usually do a consultation, labwork, and then if no contraindication start the patient on prescription medications including tablets and topical.  The price of the cap is about $3500 per Capillus' guidelines.  If you want more information email dr_muala@healthyimage.com
