What Is TrichoScan?
TrichoScan is an advanced, non-invasive hair analysis system that gives us a high-resolution, data-driven snapshot of your hair and scalp health. It combines a powerful digital microscope with intelligent software to evaluate critical factors like hair density, thickness, growth rate, and follicle activity.
In simpler terms, TrichoScan tells us what’s happening beneath the surface — before your hair loss becomes visibly noticeable.
What Makes It Different?
Unlike traditional visual inspections or subjective evaluations, TrichoScan delivers objective, quantifiable data in just a few minutes. There are:
- No needles
- No plucking or biopsies
- No pain or recovery time
It’s completely comfortable and designed for people who want clarity and control over their hair health.
Whether you’re preparing for a hair transplant or evaluating options, TrichoScan gives us the solid foundation needed to create the most effective, personalized treatment plan.

How the TrichoScan Process Works — Step-by-Step
Worried about discomfort or complicated procedures? Don’t be. The TrichoScan analysis is quick, precise, and completely painless.
Here’s exactly what happens during your session at Ideal of MeD:
1. Trimming a Small Area
We begin by trimming a tiny, discreet section of your scalp (down to 0.5 to 1 millimeter). This small patch helps expose the base of the hairs so the camera can clearly capture them for analysis. Don’t worry — this area is small enough to be hidden by your surrounding hair.
2. High-Resolution Image Capture
Next, we use a digital dermatoscope (a high-powered medical camera) to take close-up photos of the trimmed area. These images are magnified and detailed enough to show individual hair shafts and follicles.
3. Smart Software Analysis
The photos are then analyzed using sophisticated software that can automatically detect, count, and assess every single hair in the target area. It provides data on:
- Hair count
- Thickness
- Growth phase
- Density
- Follicular activity
What You’ll Get
By the end of this short process you’ll have a clear, measurable, and trackable picture of your hair health. No downtime. No discomfort. Just the answers you need to take the next step with confidence.
