DURING YOUR APPOINTMENT
Your history, scalp and hair are considered together.
The pattern, timing, scalp health and history all matter. Carmen Du Preez is an IAT certified trichologist with 18 years of experience in the hair industry.
1
Your hair and scalp history
Carmen asks when the change began, whether it was sudden or gradual, and what you noticed first. Your health, family history, hormones, stress, diet, medications, supplements and previous hair care or treatments may all be discussed.
2
Scalp and hair assessment
Carmen assesses your scalp and hair, looking at the pattern of shedding or thinning, density, hair shaft changes and symptoms such as redness, scaling, flaking or tenderness.
3
Trichoscopy where appropriate
Where appropriate, high-magnification scalp imaging helps Carmen look more closely at the scalp, follicle openings and hair shafts. It is considered alongside your history and symptoms, and does not replace medical testing where needed.
If further testing, diagnosis or medical treatment is needed, Carmen may guide you to your GP or relevant healthcare provider. You are welcome to see your own GP or preferred doctor. Where appropriate, Carmen can also refer clients for a telephonic consultation with a doctor experienced in hair loss treatment.
BEFORE YOUR VISIT
A few useful things to bring to the discussion.
1
Think about the timing
Note when the change started, what you noticed first and any recent health or lifestyle changes you would like to discuss.
2
Bring relevant information
A list of medications, supplements and previous products or treatments can help you describe what you have already tried.
3
Existing blood test results
Bring recent relevant blood test results if you already have them. You do not need blood tests before booking a trichology consultation.
What happens after the consultation?
After the assessment, Carmen explains what may be contributing to your concern and discusses practical hair and scalp guidance, medical input where needed, and follow-up review if monitoring is useful.
Normal blood results do not explain every cause of hair shedding. Your GP or dermatologist should interpret medical test results alongside your symptoms and medical history, and decide whether further investigation is needed.
A trichologist does not replace your GP or dermatologist. Medical testing, interpretation of results, medical diagnosis and prescription treatment belong with your doctor.
