How does the TrichoTest work?

TrichoTest is a non-invasive process that can be performed either in-office or at home. This genetic test involves collecting a DNA sample from the inside of your cheek, which is then analyzed to provide personalized treatment recommendations for hair loss.

In-office TrichoTest

During your in-office TrichoTest, our trained professionals will start with a quick and painless cheek swab to collect your DNA sample. This swab is gently rubbed inside your cheek for about 15 seconds to ensure an adequate sample is collected. The sample is then securely stored and sent to the GX Sciences lab in the US for analysis. Within 4 weeks, we will receive a detailed report outlining your genetic profile and the most effective treatment options for your hair loss.

At-home TrichoTest

We will send you a testing kit that includes all the necessary materials and instructions. During a scheduled virtual appointment, one of our specialists will guide you through the cheek swab process. After completing the swab, you will place the sample in the provided container and return it to our office using the prepaid shipping label. Once we receive your sample, it will be sent to the lab for analysis, and you can expect your personalized report within 4 weeks.

Interpreting the results of your TrichoTest

Once your TrichoTest results are ready, we will provide you with a comprehensive report detailing your genetic profile related to hair loss. This report will highlight the specific genetic variations affecting your condition and suggest the most effective treatment options. During a consultation, we will discuss these findings with you and explain how each recommended therapy can address your unique needs. This ensures that your treatment plan is optimized for the best possible outcomes, giving you confidence in your hair restoration journey.
