Trichology is the specialised care of hair and scalp. At DTC Skin Clinic, this covers everyday hair fall through to surgical hair transplant, matched to the cause of your hair loss rather than a one-size-fits-all routine.
Our trichology team treats hair fall, pattern baldness, alopecia areata, dandruff, scalp psoriasis, and other hair and scalp concerns using clinically accepted methods.
No. Depending on the cause and stage of hair loss, treatments like PRP, GFC, or medical therapy may be recommended before or instead of a transplant.
Most non-surgical treatments take 3-6 months of consistent sessions before visible improvement, since hair growth cycles are naturally slow.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatment uses plasma extracted from the patient's own blood, injected into the scalp to stimulate hair follicles. It's an established hair restoration technique.
Hair fall can be caused by factors like hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, stress, scalp infections, or genetic predisposition. A trichology consultation helps identify the underlying cause.
Yes, hair fall treatments are tailored to the individual's condition and cause, and are effective for both men and women depending on diagnosis.
Alopecia refers to a specific medical condition causing hair loss, often in patches or a defined pattern, whereas regular hair fall can be temporary and linked to external factors like stress or seasonal changes.
Yes, nutritional deficiencies, especially in protein, iron, and vitamins, can contribute to hair thinning and fall. A balanced diet supports overall hair health alongside clinical treatment.
Not always — many types of hair loss, especially those caused by stress, deficiencies, or temporary conditions, can be reversed with timely treatment. A trichologist can assess whether the cause is temporary or long-term.
If hair fall is excessive, sudden, or accompanied by scalp irritation, bald patches, or persists despite home care, it's best to consult a trichologist for proper diagnosis rather than relying solely on home remedies.
