The Northants Hair & Scalp Clinic

A private UK trichologist clinic specialising in hair loss and scalp problems

The Northants Hair & Scalp Clinic helps patients who are having difficulties with all hair problems and irritated scalps. We can help slow down the process of male and female pattern baldness, improve the density and the condition of your hair. We provide services also to dermabraid scaly itchy scalps.

Our expert trichologists can help with your hair or scalp problem.

The Northants Hair and Scalp Clinic is a private-based service as trichology is not currently available on the NHS.

Approximately one-fifth of all GP appointments are skin- or hair-related and if a GP feels a hair problem is deemed appropriate for a referral to a dermatologist on the NHS you could be in for a wait of between one to three months for an appointment.

There are approximately just 400 dermatologists in the UK so you can appreciate the lengthy waiting list as they specialise in not only hair but also in nails, skin cancer and skin complaints of the whole body.

Qualified trichologists can reduce the work of a GP and dermatologist by offering services to accurately diagnose a condition, and if a referral is required for a biopsy can produce documents for a GP to refer you.

What is Trichology?

Trichology is a branch of medicine that deals specifically with the study of hair and the scalp. Qualified practitioners possess an extensive knowledge of the functioning of human hair and the scalp, and the concerns relating to the diseases and disorders it can be affected by.
