Trichoscopy is a method used for diagnosing hair and scalp diseases with the help of dermatoscope.

A microscopic image allows evaluating the hair follicles and determining the scalp type and skin diseases. This method also allows assessing the thickness of the hair and damage to the hair shaft, and analysing in detail hair and scalp structures, taking into account the growth phases.

Trichoscopy is recommended if you have such problems as:

• excessive hair loss of different origin;
• brittle and dry hair;
• peeling or itching of the scalp;
• poor hair growth; 
• scalp disorders: dandruff, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, itching, scalp inflammation;
• selecting hair care.

How to prepare for the procedure?

It is best not to wash your hair 2-3 days before trichoscopy and avoid hairdressing procedures for 3 weeks before the visit.

In trichoscopy, signs of different diseases can be visualized at magnification and an accurate diagnosis can be made. A detailed analysis allows choosing complex therapy and tracking progress in therapy. We are waiting for you in Berehynia Medical Center for trichoscopy!
