My Trichologist Told Me I Had Poor Blood Circulation and Oily Scalp That Can Be Fixed for $5000
Hi Doctor,
I just made a trip to a local trichologist (Svenson Hair). They did a scalp and minituarisation study for me. She commented that I have a few hairs growing from the same pore, as well as minituarisation at same parts. She also said I had dandruff that was not flaky, and a sensitive scalp (some slight redness).So she said that I had these problems:
- Poor blood circulation (said my scalp was grey in some areas)
- Dandruff clinging to my pores (thus blocking the new hair from growing out. Said it was worse than flaky dandruff)
- Oily scalp
The treatment package was going to cost 5000 dollars, and she started to use the words VERY SEVERE as we got along, as she sensed my apprehension. However I’m not sure what she said was true. Can you help me verify the 3 points as above? Are they true??? I’m currently on Propecia.
Thank you very much. I hope no one gets pressured by such trichologists into a 5k package.
In my opinion, none of what your trichologist told you is true. We often grow multiple hair follicles (called follicular units) from one pore. If you have an oily scalp, you can treat it with shampoo formulated for oily hair/scalp, available at most drug stores or grocery stores. Grey scalp from poor circulation? Don’t waste your money! Now that I’ve saved you $5000, if that money is burning a hole in your pocket I suggest that you will get more satisfaction by donating some of it to charity.
