Trichologist

What is a Trichologist?

Trichology is the para-medical science of the hair, hair loss, and associated scalp problems. It encompasses the study of the diseases of the human hair and scalp, as well as the assessment of the cause(s) and treatment of these disorders.

 

A trichologist is a hair and scalp specialist. Trained in life sciences, they look at hair loss problems in a holistic way by evaluating clients on the basis of personal history, lifestyle, genetic factors, and environmental conditions. Based on this information, a trichologist is able to suggest individualized treatments, give nutritional advice, and recommend lifestyle changes to improve the health and appearance of the hair and scalp.

What is a Scalp Treatment?

A scalp treatment focuses on the revitalization of the scalp. The scalp is deep cleansed with gentle ingredients to remove excess dirt, oils, dead skin cells, and other pollutants. This helps to unclog the hair follicles, which promotes better hair growth and improves the overall health of the scalp and hair. By following up with nourishing products, you balance the scalp's pH and deliver ample moisture to the hair shafts for healthy, shiny, and luscious locks. Regularly including a scalp treatment in your hair care routine will improve both the look and health of your hair.

Microneedling Scalp Therapy 

Microneedling on scalp

Microneedling therapy is designed to prompt blood flow to your scalp, as well as promote the formation of new collagen fibers around your hair root—to strengthen it. This process supports your hair follicles to grow new & thicker hair. The skin's healing mechanism responds to 'micro injuries' caused by the microneedles, which leads to a rise in important growth factors and stem cells in the scalp as well as hair growth-related genes to create an increase in hair production.

Low Level Laser Therapy

LLLT Procedure

The low-level laser therapy procedure, or LLLT, is a contemporary, FDA-approved, and non-surgical method for treating hair loss. It utilizes red or near-infrared light, although it’s a completely pain-free approach. LLLT doesn’t cause burns as the laser diodes employed during the procedure use wavelengths of just 630 to 670 nm (nanometers), while the sun’s wavelength emissions range from 250 to 2500 nm. This low-level laser treatment aims to battle hair loss and male or female pattern baldness by improving blood flow to the root of your hair follicles. As a result, more nutrients are delivered to each follicle, strengthening these and supporting healthy, optimal hair growth.

Scalp Detox and Exfoliation Treatment

The scalp spatula can be used on both the face and scalp to lift up buildup and excessive skin cells.

Aloe Vera/Salicylic Acid Hair & Scalp Treatment

The salicylic acid exfoliating scalp treatment will help to remove and balance oil on the scalp and help with itchy or flaky skin. Salicylic acid works to remove flaky skin through gentle exfoliation. Hair products with salicylic acid are safe and effective clarifying hair treatments that can help keep your hair clean and promote scalp health. It is a great ingredient to help minimize dandruff, reduce seborrheic dermatitis symptoms, and aid in psoriasis treatment.

Steam Treatment

Hair steaming is the process of using moist heat to help open up the hair follicles and pores on your scalp to allow better absorption of moisture. Our hair is always being exposed to the natural elements, and it often leads to dry and brittle hair, which can increase hair breakage. Steaming your hair helps moisture to deeply penetrate each hair follicle.
