Hair Loss Testing
Genetic DNA Hair Loss Test
How will DNA genetic testing determine your hair loss? Have you wondered if a specific hair loss treatment will work for re-growing your hair? Precision medicine is making its way into the hair loss community! Our new DNA Genetic TrichoTest is an innovative test that looks at three variations of sixteen different genetic variants.
What does that mean for YOU? This DNA Genetic TrichoTest will determine your type of hair loss and help predict what therapies and treatments will work best for you. With a simple, non-invasive cheek swab, your lab results will guide us to the most effective treatments for you based on your genetic profile.
What are the benefits of genetic testing?
Genetic DNA defines variations in our body’s needs and capabilities. Understanding your genes will allow you and your hair loss team identify better treatments to potentially improve better results.

Epigenetic Hair Follicle Test
What is it?
According to the CDC, “Epigenetics is the study of how your behaviors and environment can cause changes that affect the way your genes work. Unlike genetic changes, epigenetic changes are reversible and do not change your DNA sequence, but they can change how your body reads a DNA sequence.”

How Does the Hair Follicle Test Work?
The Basics: In-office, we remove 4 strands of hair and examine them with a special S-Drive that analyzes the bulbs. With the At-Home test, the comprehensive, all-inclusive kit is mailed directly to you. It comes with very detailed instructions. The video on the left shows the easy process. Once you have gathered the sample as directed, you return it in the packaging provided back to the lab for bio-mapping.
The Science: Epigenetic technology allows us to understand the connections our diet, behavior, and environment has on our hair, skin, and nails. The hair bulb is the thriving part of the hair strand making it an excellent bio-marker. The bulb feeds from the blood vessels acting as a receiver that is constantly identifying environmental and nutritional markers.

AlopeciaDX blood test panel
What’s in the AlopeciaDX Blood Test Panel?
In our lab panel, our Nashville hair loss experts are especially looking for underlying medical issues, along with vitamin and mineral deficiencies. More specifically we are looking for:
- Iron Deficiencies – Iron is essential for the production of hemoglobin. Low hemoglobin results in a reduction of oxygen, which healthy hair requires. When iron levels are low oxygen cannot be transferred for healthy hair.
- Thyroid Dysfunction – Disruption of the thyroid causes the hair growth cycle to remain in the resting phase, causing hair loss.
- Vitamin Deficiencies – Vitamins stimulate new growth in hair follicles. Without optimal levels, growth can be stunted.
- Mineral Deficiencies – Lack of certain minerals inhibit the hair’s ability to grow at a cellular level and affects the hair growth cycles. Certain minerals also help to strengthen the hair follicle.
- Gene Mutation – Certain gene mutations may play a vital role in the hair cycle of both growth and strength.
- Amino Acid – Amino acids are essential for healthy hair. These are especially important for the growth cycle and strength of hair.
