Introduction to Trichology – Hair & Scalp Diagnostics and Care

“Introduction to Trichology” is a comprehensive, innovative course combining scientific knowledge with the practical use of modern equipment and therapeutic ingredients. It is designed for anyone who wants current, reliable knowledge of how the scalp, hair and sebaceous glands work, and of effective ways to tackle the most common trichological problems.

The course focuses on understanding scalp physiology, the hair growth cycle and the mechanisms that regulate sebaceous glands. You will learn about the latest research on the scalp microbiome, the role of inflammation in trichological conditions and the effect of lifestyle and diet on hair condition.

A key element is learning to diagnose with modern devices such as digital trichoscopes, scalp micro-cameras and hair analysers. You will learn to interpret diagnostic images, identify pathological changes and choose the right treatment.

The practical part covers the most common scalp problems, including:

• seborrhoea and excess sebum
• dandruff and inflammation
• hair loss (telogen, androgenetic)
• sensitive and dry scalp

The course stands out for integrating natural therapeutic ingredients with modern treatment methods. We discuss the properties and uses of plant extracts, biologically active oils, adaptogens and ingredients with anti-inflammatory, sebum-regulating and regenerating effects – with a strong emphasis on informed, evidence-based use in trichology treatments.

You will also learn about current trends and innovations in trichology, such as:

• therapies that support the scalp microbiome
• peptides and growth factors
• modern dermocosmetic formulas
• technologies that enhance penetration of active ingredients

The course is modern and practical – it combines academic knowledge with real client/patient skills. On completion you will have a solid foundation for informed diagnosis and planning effective, personalised hair and scalp treatments.
