What
is a Trichologist?
A
trichologist is a qualified person who has successfully
completed studies in the field of Trichology. This
field of study is very well known in many countries,
especially in Europe. One of the oldest Trichology
Institutes was established in 1908 in London, England.
Trichologists study anatomy and physiology of the
skin, hair and body, chemistry, microscopy, nutrition,
scalp and hair disorders and electro therapy. Continual
Studies and Education is also important, as to keep
up with the latest therapies such as Low Level Laser
Light Therapy, the Laser Hair Comb or any other
