What is TrichoTest
TrichoTest is the only genetic test to recommend hair loss treatments based on your DNA and lifestyle factors. It evaluates a range of genetic variants, lifestyle considerations and information on hair loss treatment in order to provide the most suitable choices – topical, oral or surgical. The greater comprehension that TrichoTest brings means that trial and error are removed, and we can start with the most suitable treatment for each individual patient, achieving the best possible results.
