What is Trichology — And How Can It Help You?

Trichology is a branch of dermatology that focuses specifically on the scientific study of the hair and scalp. As a holistic discipline and not medical, trichology bridges the gap between cosmetic hair treatments and medical science, offering professional support for a wide range of hair and scalp concerns with solutions.

Whether you're experiencing hair thinning, excessive shedding, scalp irritation, dandruff, or more complex issues like alopecia, trichology offers a deeper, science-backed approach to diagnosing and treating the root causes of your condition, not just the symptoms.

A qualified trichologist is trained and qualified to assess hair and scalp health through in-depth consultations, scalp examinations, and lifestyle evaluations. From there, they develop personalised treatment plans tailored to your unique needs. These may include dietary and lifestyle adjustments, topical solutions, therapeutic treatments, or referrals to medical professionals when necessary.

Unlike general hair care services, trichology focuses on long term hair and scalp health, emphasizing prevention, education, and sustainable results. It’s ideal for those who have tried over the counter products or salon treatments without success or for anyone looking to optimise the overall health and appearance of their hair.
