12-Month Hair Restoration Result | Trichology Scotland

This 26-year-old client came to Trichology Scotland experiencing male-pattern hair loss at Norwood stage 3. Like many men, the visible thinning was beginning to affect not only his appearance, but also his confidence and overall wellbeing.

We began his treatment journey with a Genetic test, which is a genetic analysis designed to identify the individual genetic and androgen-related factors contributing to hair loss. This step is essential in providing clinical clarity and allows us to move forward with accuracy rather than assumption.

Using the results of his genetic profile, we developed a fully personalised prescription treatment plan, tailored specifically to his biology. Our approach is never generic — each recommendation is based on evidence, ethics and the needs of the individual.

After 12 months of targeted, science-led treatment, his Norwood stage 3 thinning was fully restored, with clear improvement in hair density, coverage and scalp health. Just as importantly, the improvement in his confidence and mood has been significant.

At Trichology Scotland, we believe effective hair loss treatment starts with understanding.
✔ Ethical practice
✔ Evidence-based care
✔ Personalised treatment plans

If you’re considering hair loss treatment, we strongly recommend beginning with a Genetic insight, which allows us to create the most accurate and effective treatment plan possible.

Clascoterone for Hair Loss — What We Know So Far 🔬🧠

You may have heard the buzz around Clascoterone, a topical anti-androgen originally approved for acne (as Winlevi). What’s new is that a higher-strength 5% scalp solution is now being tested for androgenetic alopecia — and early data is drawing a lot of attention.

Here’s a clear breakdown:

✅ Why scientists are interested
Clascoterone works by blocking androgens (like DHT) from binding to receptors in hair follicles. Since DHT plays a major role in pattern hair loss, this mechanism makes biological sense. The best part? It’s topical — meaning it aims to act locally without the systemic side effects seen with some oral treatments.

📊 Clinical results so far
Phase III studies in men showed statistically significant improvements in target-area hair count versus placebo. One study even reported a 539% relative improvement — meaning the treatment group gained far more hair than the placebo group, even though absolute numbers still depend on individual starting points.

💡 What this could mean
If approved, clascoterone may become the first new major topical hair-loss treatment in decades, offering an option for people who don’t tolerate or prefer not to use oral medications.

⚠️ But… important caveats
• It’s not yet approved for hair loss.
• Long-term safety and maintenance results are still pending.
• Works best when follicles are still viable — not in fully bald areas.
• Trials so far mainly focus on men; additional data will be needed for women.

This could be big for the future of hair-loss treatment — but it’s not quite here yet.

Nothing makes us more pleased than restoring hair confidence for our clients

Knowledge is power, and helping our clients understand the triggers for their hair worries and how to effectively treat them is our mission

24/09/2025

An absolutely outstanding result for our client after 9 months.
The treatment process started in our clinics with an accurate diagnosis of Androgenetic Alopecia, followed by a simple genetic test to determine which specific androgens were triggering the thinning, and which specific medication will reverse the thinning.

The genetic test results delivered the specific prescription required for our client.

Following 9 months use the results are clear to see. The level of confidence restored to this lady is immeasurable
