Hair loss can come with a few uncomfortable moments, starting with having someone examine your scalp at a microscopic level. I don't think many more things get as personal as someone seeing your follicles at a microscopic level! If you happen to be googling the term "scalp biopsies," then chances are you may be having one sometime soon, or you know someone close who is. Don't get scared!
Many people associate biopsies with the "c" word, but that is not the case most times when examining hair loss at a clinical level. Hair experts often want to discard symptoms for specific scalp conditions. Learning this information gives you and your doctor the power to change things and conditions for the better. Going through a scalp biopsy is a significant step and is a crucial part of your hair story.
After a biopsy, the following steps in your hair journey may include a series of follow-up visits where you should ask about various therapies that can become a part of your healthy follicle lifestyle.
