Capillus Reimagines Scalp Care with Launch of Sleek, Targeted Laser HairBand

The pioneer in science-based light therapy brings its laser engineering to a sleek wearable designed for the hairline and front of the scalp.

MIAMI, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Capillus, a pioneer in science-backed photobiomodulation and light therapy, today announced the official launch of its newest wearable innovation: the Capillus HairBand. Leveraging over a decade of hair regrowth authority  and U.S.-based engineering, Capillus elevates targeted scalp care with a sleek, hands-free laser device engineered for where women track early changes first, along the part line, hairline, and frontal scalp.

While full-coverage caps address the entire head, the HairBand delivers an agile, targeted alternative engineered for high-priority areas and daily ease. Unlike bulky plastic handheld devices or broad LED panels on the market, the Capillus HairBand combines 82 medical-grade 650 nm laser diodes with an effortless, lightweight design. Lasers provide the focused depth precision required to reach hair follicles and Low Level Laser Therapy stimulates cellular mitochondria, turning light science into a seamless 5-minute home ritual.

"For over 10 years, Capillus has set the standard in medical-grade light therapy. The HairBand represents an exciting evolution in our lineup," said Domingo "Opi" Moreira, CEO of Capillus. "We engineered this device female-first because women frequently track subtle, early changes along their part line and hairline. However, its high-precision laser array offers a universal, proactive solution for anyone looking to optimize frontal scalp vitality and hair density." 

"Low-level laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of red light that penetrate the scalp and stimulate cells within the hair follicle. This process, known as photobiomodulation, supports cellular metabolism and helps prolong the hair follicle's active growth phase, which can contribute to improved hair density over time," said Ken Anderson, MD, FAACS, FISHRS, Founder and Medical Director of Anderson Center for Hair and Clinical Professor of Dermatology at Emory University School of Medicine.

Engineered for real life, the Capillus HairBand features a simple, intuitive protocol used just three times per week, complete with an automatic shut-off feature. The ultra-portable wearable includes a smart magnetic battery, rapid USB-C charging (delivering up to 8 hours of battery life on a 1.5-hour charge), and a one-year manufacturer warranty.  The Capillus HairBand is available for pre-sale starting today at Capillus.com for $599. 

The Capillus HairBand will be available for pre-sale at Capillus.com at launch.
