Three scalp regions
You leave with the numbers, not an opinion.
A trichoscope photographs a small area of your scalp at high magnification. Software finds every shaft in the frame and measures it, so nothing is estimated by eye.
Metric names and units shown here. Your own values are measured on the day, from your scalp.

Three regions
Compared against your own reference area.
Hair loss is regional. The back of the scalp usually holds its density while the front and crown thin first, so the useful comparison is you against you, not you against an average.
Region 01
Frontal
The hairline and the area behind it, where thinning is normally noticed first.
Region 02
Temporal
The sides above the ear, which recede on a different schedule from the front.
Region 03
Occipital
The back of the scalp, used as your reference because it is usually the last to change.

Straight answers
What people ask before they book.
What is the catch? Why is it free?
There is no catch. Anagen runs the largest research effort dedicated to hair loss, and measurement is the basis of that work. You are not charged and you are not obliged to buy anything.
Is the scan a diagnosis?
No. A TrichoScan is a measurement. It records hair density, shaft thickness and the ratio of terminal to vellus hairs. It does not by itself diagnose a condition and it is not a substitute for care from your own physician.
Does it hurt, and do I need to shave?
Neither. The trichoscope is a handheld camera that rests against the scalp. Nothing is cut, injected or removed.
How long does it take?
About twenty minutes, including the sit-down afterwards to go through your results.
Will someone try to sell me a treatment?
We will answer questions about options if you ask.
