A trichologist is a specialist who focuses on the health of the hair and scalp. They can help diagnose and treat a variety of hair and scalp issues, such as hair loss, thinning hair, dandruff, and scalp inflammation. Trichologists use non-invasive methods to assess and create personalized treatment plans tailored to each individual’s needs.

We treat a range of conditions including, but not limited to, hair loss (alopecia), thinning hair, dandruff, seborrheic dermatitis, scalp psoriasis, and other scalp irritations. Our goal is to identify the underlying causes and recommend appropriate treatments to improve hair and scalp health.

During your first consultation, we will conduct a detailed assessment that includes a discussion about your medical history, lifestyle, and any specific hair or scalp concerns. We may use diagnostic tools, such as a trichoscope, to get a closer look at your scalp and hair follicles. This helps us understand the cause of your condition and recommend the best treatment options.

It’s helpful to bring any recent medical records, a list of medications you are currently taking, and details of any hair or scalp treatments you've tried in the past. Avoid using heavy hair products or treatments for at least 24 hours before your appointment to ensure the most accurate assessment.

Coverage for trichology treatments can vary depending on your insurance provider. While some hair and scalp conditions may be partially covered, others may not be. We recommend checking with your insurance company to understand your coverage, and we are happy to provide any necessary documentation to assist with reimbursement.

Yes, we believe in personalized care. Every client receives a tailored treatment plan based on their specific hair type, scalp condition, and underlying issues. Whether you have natural, chemically treated, or fine hair, we ensure your treatment plan is customized to achieve the best results.

A trichologist specializes solely in the hair and scalp, focusing on non-medical and holistic treatments for hair and scalp health. A dermatologist, on the other hand, is a medical doctor who can diagnose and treat a wide range of skin, hair, and nail conditions, often using prescription medications. For complex or medically rooted hair issues, a trichologist may refer you to a dermatologist for further evaluation.

The timeframe for results varies based on the condition being treated and individual factors like age, overall health, and consistency with the treatment plan. Some patients notice improvements within a few weeks, while others may require a few months for significant changes.
