Understand Your Hair Loss at Its Root
TrichoTest DNA Analysis helps guide more personalised treatment decisions
What You Can Get Back
- Clearer understanding of your hair loss
- More targeted treatment direction
- Reduced trial-and-error with treatments
- Greater confidence in your care plan
Consult with our doctor to assess suitability.
Are You Experiencing Ongoing Hair Thinning?
- Progressive hair loss or reduced density
- Family history of balding
- Unclear cause despite prior treatment
- Limited or inconsistent results
- Looking for a more personalised approach
Hair loss is often influenced by multiple factors.
A proper assessment helps determine the next step.
What is TrichoTest DNA Analysis?
TrichoTest DNA Analysis is a non-invasive genetic test used in the management of hair loss.
It analyses your DNA to identify genetic markers linked to:
- Hair loss conditions (e.g. androgenetic alopecia)
- Hair follicle behaviour
- Response to medications such as minoxidil
The test is performed using a simple cheek swab, with no downtime.
It is not a treatment, but a diagnostic tool used to guide personalised care.
Technology & How TrichoTest Works
TrichoTest uses DNA OpenArray technology to analyse 48 genetic variations linked to hair loss pathways.
It evaluates key biological factors such as:
- Hormonal sensitivity (androgen response)
- Inflammation
- Blood circulation
- Collagen and scalp support
- Vitamin and nutrient metabolism
What this means:
- Goes beyond visible symptoms
- Provides insight at a genetic level
- Helps guide more precise treatment planning
Unlike general treatments, this approach focuses on how your body is likely to respond.
Why Genetic Testing May Be Considered
Hair loss treatments often take months to evaluate.
Without additional insight, treatment may involve multiple adjustments.
TrichoTest DNA Analysis is designed to:
- Provide earlier direction in treatment planning
- Identify potential treatment compatibility
- Support a more structured approach to care
Understanding Treatment Response (Minoxidil Example)
Minoxidil is commonly used in hair loss management.
However, response varies between individuals.
TrichoTest evaluates markers such as the SULT1A1 gene, which is involved in activating minoxidil.
In simple terms:
- Minoxidil needs activation in the follicle
- SULT1A1 helps enable this process
- Genetic variation may affect effectiveness
This helps guide whether certain treatments may be considered.
Doctor-Led Assessment
- Not all patients require genetic testing.Your doctor will:
- Assess hair loss pattern and progression
- Examine scalp condition
- Review medical and treatment history
- Determine if TrichoTest is appropriate
Testing is recommended only when clinically relevant.
Personalised care guided by medical expertise.
What This Test May Help Support
- In suitable patients, TrichoTest DNA Analysis is used to support:
- Identification of genetic predisposition
- Selection of treatment approaches
- Understanding of treatment response
- More personalised care planning
Results are interpreted alongside clinical findings.
How TrichoTest May Influence Your Treatment Plan
Genetic findings may guide decisions such as:
- Use of topical or oral medications
- Nutritional supplementation
- Adjunctive therapies
Treatment remains individualised and doctor-led.
