HAIR LOSS & SCALP HEALTH

A trichologist specializes in hair loss and scalp health. During your evaluation, I review your history, examine your scalp and follicles under magnification, identify the signs and patterns present, and build a personalized plan for your hair and scalp needs.
A trichologist can help identify your hair-loss type and possible underlying contributors, make personalized lifestyle recommendations, and offer treatments designed to heal the scalp, reduce inflammation, and restore or rejuvenate follicles affected by hair loss. When necessary, I may recommend other specialists as part of your overall plan.
You cannot confirm that by appearance alone. A magnified scalp evaluation helps us look for viable follicles, miniaturized hairs, inflammation, and possible scar tissue. If follicles are still present, there may be an opportunity to support stronger growth. When follicles have been replaced by scar tissue, regrowth in that area may be limited.
Do not wait for the area to become smooth, shiny, or noticeably larger. Early evaluation is especially important when you notice a widening part, thinning edges or crown, bald patches, unusual shedding, scalp pain, itching, burning, redness, flaking, or tenderness.
Yes. Ongoing inflammation can disrupt the growth cycle and, in some conditions, damage the follicle over time. Itching, burning, tenderness, redness, heavy flaking, bumps, or soreness should not be ignored. The first goal is to calm the scalp and address what is contributing to the inflammation.

TREATMENT & HOME CARE

Treatment is selected after evaluating your scalp and follicles. Options may include microneedling with growth factors, exosome therapy, cold plasma therapy, low-level light therapy, scalp detox services, clinical-grade topical systems, and personalized home-care protocols. Your plan may combine services based on your condition and goals.
Hair restoration is a process, not a one-time appointment. Some clients notice early scalp or shedding changes within a few weeks, while visible growth commonly takes several months. The best possible improvement may take 6 to 12 months, depending on the cause, how long the loss has been present, follicle viability, and consistency.
No single product works for every type of hair loss. A product may support growth, reduce shedding, or improve the scalp, but results depend on the cause of the loss and whether the follicles are still viable. Choosing products after an evaluation helps prevent wasted time and money.
Supplements are most helpful when nutrition, absorption, or a deficiency is affecting the growth cycle. Taking more biotin or iron does not automatically correct every type of hair loss, and unnecessary supplements may not help. Your history, diet, medications, and relevant lab work should guide recommendations.
Yes. You do not need to know the name of the condition before booking. The evaluation is where we examine the scalp, discuss your symptoms and history, identify the most likely pattern, and determine which office treatments, home care, or additional testing may be appropriate.
