HAIR LOSS TREATMENT AND RESTORATION

Clive Hair Clinics have qualified Trichologists, specialising in men and women’s hair loss treatment and restoration, with branches in Melbourne, Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch.  We also visit Sydney regulary – see our consultation page for details.  There are a great number of myths and misconceptions about hair loss in men and women. The most common hair problems, representing over 75% of enquiries at our Clinics are Genetic Thinning, Diffuse Loss and Alopecia. Hopefully the following information will explain these disorders and what can and cannot be done for them.

What is trichology?
Trichology deals with the study of scalp and hair problems – the different types of hair loss, baldness, scaling problems that occur, and the non-medical treatment of those maladies.

What is a qualified trichologist?
A Clive qualified trichologist is someone who has successfully completed the trichology educational programme of the Clive Institute of Hair. The programme’s subject-matter includes anatomy and physiology of the skin and hair, anatomy and physiology of the systems of the body, chemistry, microscopy, mineral analysis, nutrition, hair and scalp maladies, and electrotherapy.

Clive Clinics provides haircare and non-medical treatments for hairloss. Clive Clinics does not undertake medical diagnosis. You should consult your medical practitioner for advice if you have any concern about your general state of health, illness or disease.
