Trying treatments without diagnosis often leads to temporary results, wrong medications, or unnecessary procedures
That’s why hair experts worldwide recommend a quantitative hair analysis before starting any therapy.
Each pattern has different causes, and management depends on the type and severity of hair loss. Advanced cases may require a hair transplant for long term results.
VCare’s TrichoScan Hair Analysis is India’s most trusted quantitative hair diagnostic test, powered by German-patented technology, designed to identify the patterns of hair fall, thinning, and help diagnose scalp disorders with expert consultation — within 10–15 minutes.
TrichoScan is a computer-assisted digital hair scan that:
Measures hair density per cm²
Analyses hair growth cycles (Anagen vs Telogen)
This is the active hair growth phase. Normally, 85–90% of healthy scalp hair should be in the anagen phase. A reduced anagen percentage indicates weakened growth activity.
A short transitional phase lasting 2–3 weeks where hair stops growing and detaches from the blood supply. Typically, only 1–3% of hairs are in this phase.
This is the resting stage before hair sheds. Normally, 10–15% of hair remains in telogen. If this percentage increases, it suggests active hair fall or telogen effluvium.
TrichoScan does not just count hair, it calculates the percentage distribution of Anagen, Telogen, and Catagen hairs. By analysing these ratios, doctors can determine:
Benefits:
Whether hair fall is active
Whether growth potential is reduced
Whether follicles are resting excessively
Whether early-stage thinning has started
Whether treatment is improving growth phase ratioWhy You Should Take a TrichoScan Test Before Any Treatment
Starting treatment without diagnosis can delay results.
A TrichoScan test helps:
Avoid unnecessary procedures
Detect early-stage hair thinning
Understand the real severity of hair loss

VCare offers genuine TrichoScan diagnostics with certified interpretation and structured reporting
Your session begins with discussion about hair fall duration, lifestyle, and medical history. A physical scalp check and basic hair pull test may be performed.
The scalp is examined under magnification to assess oil levels, dandruff, and follicular condition. Hair shaft thickness and scalp inflammation are evaluated.
A tiny, barely noticeable section (less than 1 cm) is trimmed for analysis. This is painless and does not affect appearance.
Using the TrichoScan device, detailed scalp images are captured under controlled lighting. No gels, alcohol, or injections are used.
Within 10–15 minutes, software generates a complete report on density and growth phases. Data is presented in measurable numbers and graphs.
The doctor explains the report in simple terms and recommends the right treatment path. This may include medical therapy, in-clinic treatments, or lifestyle guidance.
Avoid oiling hair on the day of the test
Do not apply heavy styling products
Wash hair 24 hours before appointment
Share medical history honestly
