Evaluating Low-Level Laser Therapy vs Topical Treatments for Early Hair Thinning

[thomasfrank]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been noticing early thinning at the crown and considering options to slow it down. I want to compare two approaches:

• Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): Devices like laser combs or caps, used 3–4 times per week.
• Topical Treatments: Minoxidil foam or solution, applied daily.

Questions I have for the community:

1. Which method gives noticeable results in 6–12 months?
2. Any combination strategies that have worked better than single treatments?
3. Side effects or practical issues you encountered?

I’d appreciate hearing your experiences or tips. Even small insights from your routine could help.

Thanks for sharing.
