What is Trichology?

Trichology is a para-medical field, which is the study of hair and scalp disorders that involves the anatomy and physiology of hair. It is not widely known to many, but it is by no means a new field of science. This area of study began in London, England in 1902. Trichology is taken from the Greek word “tricho” meaning “hair” and is the branch of medicine that has to do with the anatomy, growth and diseases of the hair. Trichology is an area of health care that embraces both naturopathic & western medicine, endocrinology and dermatology.

It also involves an in-depth study of the functionality of chemistry, physics, and the health of hair.
There are specialists for all areas of the human body. Neurologists deal with the brain and the central nervous system, podiatrists deal with problems associated with the feet, and Dermatologists’ specialize in the branch of medicine that deals with the skin and diseases affecting the skin. There are many other specialists that deal with other organs, but a Trichologist is a specialist for hair and scalp disorders. A qualified Trichologist can identify and treat all forms of hair loss, hair shaft breakage, scalp disorders, and the scalp environment. Hair is one of the body’s most metabolically-active tissues, often reflecting the first signs of internal disturbance. The hair and scalp are just as important as other areas of the body in the overall assessment of your health. All too often you may go for a medical checkup that doesn’t include hair and scalp examinations. By including this area in the overall examination, a number of medical conditions that initially include doctors may be detected and treated much sooner. This science is very important and rapidly growing with an esteemed place in the health care and beauty industries.

What does A Trichologist Do?

A trichologist helps people who have problems with their hair or scalp. They often see the first signs of imbalances that relate to the hair and scalp in both adults and children. A trichologist will consult with each client to examine the scalp and hair to determine the disorder and underlying cause. A Trichologist will examine the hair and/or scalp under a specialized microscope and determine which problems they can treat and which ones may need to be referred to other medical specialists. Some of the disorders that they may see during daily practice include dandruff, eczema, psoriasis, seborrhea, dermatitis, dry, oily or itchy scalp, hair breakage, hair thinning, hair loss, excessive hair loss over the entire scalp, baldness patches, female and male pattern baldness, alopecia or scaling alopecia.

A trichologist is trained to look for different forms of alopecia (there are more than 75) and trained to produce a microscopic analysis of the hair shaft. Trichologist evaluate damaged hair follicles of the scalp and confirm the severity of the damaged follicle and alopecia. A trichologist may also conduct an analysis of the hair shaft, (there are 36 types of disorders) give nutritional counseling and work jointly with other medical professionals to assist in a person’s overall health. A trichologist may also suggest a mineral analysis and depending on the evaluation, the trichologist may provide therapeutic scalp treatments.

Often a person may experience three or more disorders simultaneously. In evaluation of alopecia and scalp disorders, both internal and external factors must be considered. Maintaining good health is holistic and a lot of scalp disorder symptoms may begin in other places in the body. A trichologist will recognize certain systemic conditions that need to be treated by other health care practitioners such as endocrinologists, dermatologists, neurologists and other medical specialists. A trichologist will direct the client accordingly. There are stylists that promote healthy hair, but a trained trichologist is a specialist in hair breaking, thinning, hair loss, itching and scalp disorders.

If you are having problems with your scalp or hair and haven’t found a solution, you need to see Jackie Creeks the trichologist for Houston and the surrounding areas.
