Why consult a Trichologist?
Trichologists are specialists in the science of hair and scalp health, with advanced training that goes beyond general hair care. At Renova Hair, our trichologists carry out in-depth consultations and assessments to uncover the root cause of your concerns, allowing us to create personalised treatment plans tailored to your individual needs.
What to Expect During a Trichology Consultation
At Renova Hair, a trichology consultation is far more than a quick check — it’s a detailed, personalised assessment of your scalp and hair health. Our expert trichologists take the time to understand your concerns, explore your lifestyle and medical history, and use advanced diagnostic tools to identify the underlying causes. From there, we create a clear, tailored treatment plan designed to support your recovery and deliver real results.
Consultation Fee
Our trichology consultation is £85, providing valuable insights and a personalised approach to help you achieve healthier hair and scalp.
The Consultation Process
What to Expect During Your Trichology Consultation
1. In-Depth Discussion
We start with a detailed conversation about your hair and scalp concerns, including any previous treatments or products you’ve used. Key lifestyle factors, such as diet, stress, and medical history, are also explored, as they can significantly affect hair health.
2. Scalp and Hair Analysis
Using specialised diagnostic equipment, our trichologists examine your scalp and hair follicles to assess their condition, density, and overall health.
3. Diagnosis & Treatment Plan
Based on the findings, we offer a clear diagnosis and walk you through personalised treatment options. This may include in-clinic treatments, recommended products, or practical lifestyle changes to support healthier hair and scalp function.
4. Referrals for Further Investigation
If needed, we may suggest a blood test or refer you to a medical professional to rule out underlying health issues such as nutritional deficiencies or hormonal imbalances. Our aim is to take a thorough, holistic approach to your hair restoration journey.
5. Personalised Recommendations
You’ll leave the consultation with expert advice and, if required, a structured treatment plan tailored to your specific concerns—whether that’s hair thinning, excessive shedding, or scalp irritation.

What Is Classed As A Trichological Treatment

Common conditions treated include:
-
Androgenetic Alopecia (MPHL/FPHL)
