The official Stata command -lowess- doesn't support this. I don't think you can even clone -lowess- to add your own modifications as it is dependent on a built-in command -_LOWESS-. 

One alternative is -rcspline- (SSC). This is just a convenience wrapper for -mkspline, cubic- and -regress- but convenience still beats the opposite.

do you know how to construct a 95% confidence band for a LOWESS estimation not by bootstrapping? 

(I have a limited sample and I am interested in the confidence bands at boundary)
