Answer:
Trichology, derived from the Greek word “tricho” meaning “hair,” is the study of the anatomy, growth, and diseases of the hair and scalp. An unhealthy scalp can make growing healthy hair a challenge. A trichology evaluation and scalp analysis (sometimes called TricoTest) can help determine the cause of your scalp symptoms. Trichology treatments help manage excess sebum, dandruff, toxins, and impurities—improving scalp wellness and allowing optimal hair growth. Men and women with a “symptomatic scalp” (dry, itchy, flaky, or oily scalp, excessive hair loss, shedding, or hair breakage) should schedule a trichology evaluation. Patients considering or already using at-home hair regrowth treatments, PRP Platelet Rich Plasma or a hair transplant procedure should also consider a trichology evaluation or TricoTest, and a trichology treatment session to maximize their results.
