How easy is it to use our TrichoDNA™ test? Rob shows us just how easy it really is. 🧬 As part of his GrowBack journey, Rob Hawes from @the_follicle_chronicle is taking his TrichoDNA™ test, and collecting the sample couldn't be simpler. Using the DNA kit, Rob takes a quick oral swab from inside his mouth, places the sample securely into the provided bag, and it's ready to be sent for analysis. No needles. No complicated procedure. Just a simple swab that can give us valuable insight into the genetic factors that may be influencing his hair loss. Once Rob's results are back, we'll combine them with his consultation and hair analysis to help create a treatment plan specifically personalised to him. Because when it comes to hair loss, we don't believe in guesswork or one-size-fits-all solutions. Stay tuned for Rob's results and the next stage of his GrowBack journey. 👀 💬 DM me or visit my website to learn more about personalised hair restoration.

Hair loss doesn't look the same for everyone. So why would the same approach work for everyone? This patient came to GrowBack after noticing progressive thinning over time. We began by understanding what was happening beneath the surface using the TrichoDNA Test, a detailed scalp assessment and ongoing monitoring.  From there, we developed a GrowBack Plan based on his results and supported him throughout his journey. The progress you see here wasn't achieved overnight. It reflects consistency, regular review and understanding what his hair follicles needed over time. 💬 Have you been trying different products without really knowing what's causing your hair loss? 📩 DM me or visit my website to find out how understanding your biology could help guide your next steps. 📤 Know someone concerned about thinning hair?

Our hair follicles are constantly receiving signals that tell them whether to grow, rest or shed. 🧬 These signals are controlled by naturally occurring compounds called prostaglandins, which help regulate the hair growth cycle. Understanding these biological signals allows us to take a more personalised, science-led approach to supporting hair health. At GrowBack, we focus on identifying what's influencing your hair cycle before creating a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. 💬 DM me or visit my website to learn more about our personalised hair restoration programmes. 💾 Save this post and follow for more science-led scalp and hair insights.

Seeing hair in the shower or your hairbrush can be worrying. 👀 The amount you notice isn't always the full story. If you wash your hair less often, it's normal to see more hairs come away during each wash because they've built up over several days.  That doesn't necessarily mean you're losing more hair. What's more important is noticing changes over time.  If the amount of shedding continues to increase or you're seeing visible thinning, it's worth getting it assessed rather than guessing the cause. Understanding what's normal for you is the first step towards making informed decisions about your hair health. 🌿 💬 Have you ever worried that you were shedding more hair than normal? 📩 DM or visit my website to learn more or to book a consultation. 📤 Share this post with someone who might find it reassuring.

There are a few things I wish more people knew before buying hair loss products. 👀 1️⃣ Not all hair loss has the same cause. Stress, hormones, genetics, nutrition and certain medical conditions can all affect your hair differently.  Understanding the cause is just as important as choosing a product. 2️⃣ More expensive doesn't always mean more suitable. The best option depends on what's contributing to your hair loss, not the price tag or what's trending online. 3️⃣ A healthy scalp matters. Supporting the scalp environment is an important part of maintaining healthy hair.   If the scalp isn't healthy, it's worth understanding why before focusing on regrowth. That's why at GrowBack, we focus on gathering the right information first, using tools such as HairMetrix scalp analysis and the TrichoDNA Test before making recommendations. 🌿  💬 Which of these surprised you the most? 📩 DM or visit my website to learn more or to book a consultation. 📤 Share this post with someone who might find it helpful.

It's always rewarding to see patients share their journey. 👏 Neil has been under my care for hair loss, and it was great to see him recently featured on Beyond the Grafts by Dr Mark Tam, where he shared more about his experience. Every hair restoration journey is unique, and my role is to understand the underlying causes of hair loss and create a personalised, science-led treatment plan that supports long-term follicle health. Thank you, Neil, for trusting me with your journey, and thank you to Dr Mark Tam and the Beyond the Grafts team for sharing his story. 💬 If you're concerned about hair loss and would like to explore a personalised treatment plan, DM me or visit my website to book a consultation.

The stressful event may be over, but your hair may still be responding to it. 👀 One of the biggest misconceptions about hair shedding is that it should stop as soon as the trigger disappears. In reality, shedding can continue for several months after a period of stress, illness, hormonal change or other biological disruption. That's why the focus shouldn't always be on immediate stimulation of regrowth. At GrowBack, this often means focusing on stabilisation before introducing personalised regrowth strategies. Because sometimes the goal isn't to force growth. It's to stop the shed. 👉 Have you noticed increased shedding months after a stressful event? 💬 DM me or visit my website to learn more about our GrowBack Reset Programme. ❤️ Double tap if you found this interesting.

Hair loss isn't always about losing hair. Sometimes, it's about the signals your follicles are receiving. 🧬 One of those signals is called PGD2, a chemical messenger that can encourage follicles to slow down, shrink and eventually stop producing healthy hair. The challenge is that not everyone responds to these signals in the same way. That's why we use TrichoDNA™ testing to understand how your unique genetics may be influencing your hair health and treatment response. Because effective hair restoration starts with understanding what's driving the problem. 👉 Could your follicles be responding differently? 💬 DM me or visit my website to learn more about TrichoDNA™ testing and personalised hair restoration. 💾 Save this post and follow for more science-led scalp and hair insights.

More shedding does not always mean you need more stimulation. 👀 Excessive shedding is often linked to something that has placed stress on the body or follicle environment, such as illness, emotional stress, surgery or hormonal changes. When follicles are already under pressure, going straight into aggressive growth stimulation may not give the scalp what it needs first. The first step is not always regrowth. It is understanding what triggered the shed. Because effective hair recovery starts with the right diagnosis, not guesswork. Stay tuned for Part 2! Have you noticed more shedding than usual recently?
