The Northants Hair
& Scalp Clinic
Private UK Trichologists with clinics in Northamptonshire and Milton Keynes specialising in hair loss and scalp problems
The Northants Hair & Scalp Clinic helps patients who are having difficulties with all hair problems, breakage 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, and we also provide services to dermabraid scaly, itchy scalps.
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.
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 up to 3 months as a non-urgent appointment.
There are only approximately 650 dermatologists (many of whom are part-time) 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.
The Northants Hair & Scalp Clinic is a private-based service as Trichology is not currently available on the NHS. Read more about us »
What do our patients say?
I luckily sought the support of Lisa from NHSC for my child who was very sick and losing her hair. After weeks of hospital and GP misdiagnosis, Lisa saw my daughter and did a thorough investigation which resulted in a correct diagnosis, this led to us finally getting the right meds from our GP plus a referral to a dermatologist.
I literally can’t thank Lisa enough as her professionalism and resourcefulness gave us a much desired solution.
Very professional with lots of knowledge given to me. I had my scalp checked with a camera and had my blood works from the past 12 months explained. I now have a treatment plan in place and I’m excited to get back on track with a healthy scalp.
Lisa has not only been able to diagnose exactly what my problem is where GP’s have failed, but has put me on the right track to reverse my condition which is totally treatable!
