Fagron TrichoTest™ is an advanced DNA hair loss test that analyses 13 genes and 48 genetic variations scientifically linked to hair thinning. It provides personalised treatment recommendations for three common types of hair loss: androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, and alopecia areata.
While the TrichoTest does not diagnose the root cause of hair loss, it reveals your unique genetic predispositions, enabling you to take targeted, evidence-based action — rather than relying on generic over-the-counter products or recommendations from friends.
Hair loss is a progressive condition affecting millions of men and women in the UK. With the TrichoTest, you can stop the guesswork and start treating your hair loss with a tailored plan based on your genetic profile, lifestyle, and metabolism.
✅ The test is quick, painless, and carried out via a simple saliva swab from the comfort of your home.
✅ Your results are processed at Fagron’s certified laboratory and reviewed by a UK pharmacist.
✅ You’ll receive a detailed report and personalised recommendations — with the option to order a custom-compounded prescription made specifically for your DNA.
