At Omniya, we recognise that not every hair loss solution suits every individual. That’s why we offer the Fagron TrichoTest, a powerful tool that provides personalised insights into the genetic factors behind hair loss. By understanding these genetic influences, we can create treatment plans that are more effective and tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
The Fagron test including the appointment to complete the test at Omniya Clinic costs £410.
The Fagron TrichoTest is a personalised diagnostic, that aims to provide patients who are experiencing hair loss, with a tailored treatment recommendation based on their unique genetic makeup. By analysing the genetic factors related to hair loss treatment responses, the TrichoTest offers a targeted approach for patients.
The Fagron TrichoTest is typically used by patients who want to understand how their genetics affect alopecia (hair loss) treatment, have a family history of hair loss and have tried different treatments with little or no success.
The TrichoTest is available for both male and female patients, and is best suited to Androgenetic Alopecia (Male and Female patterned thinning), Alopecia Areata (Patchy hair loss) and Chronic Telogen Effluvium (long term hair shedding disorders)
Hair loss, or alopecia, is influenced by a blend of genetic and external factors. Treating hair loss effectively requires addressing both aspects. Previously, a one-size-fits-all approach was the only approach, focusing on symptoms and clinical observations. However, we are now able to analyse genetic predispositions towards hair loss and gauge the effectiveness of various treatment options for hair regrowth and maintenance more accurately.
This breakthrough testing method allows us to predict the likelihood of a treatment’s success, saving time typically spent evaluating results over several months. Treatment plans are now fully personalised, with prescriptions tailored to individual patients.
Our process involves providing patients with a comprehensive report detailing their genetic characteristics and their relevance to hair treatment. Our consultants possess in-depth knowledge of how these genetic traits correlate with hair loss, ensuring specialised support throughout the treatment journey.
The genetic analysis provided by the Fagron TrichoTest is a one-time assessment, as genetic traits remain constant. Results are securely shared with prescribers via the Fagron Genomics online platform.
These personalised reports empower prescribers to select the most suitable treatment option for each patient’s unique needs, enhancing the efficacy and efficiency of hair loss treatment.

The key benefits of the Fagron TrichoTest are:
One-Time Evaluation: Genetic traits remain constant throughout an individual’s life. Therefore, Fagron TrichoTest provides a singular assessment with enduring benefits, eliminating the need for repeated evaluations.
The Fagron TrichoTest is currently the only genetic test available for personalised hair loss treatments. This means we can address hair loss on a truly individualised and personal level, maximising the chances of success for each patient.
Our recommendations may include various options such as topical treatments, oral medications, supplements, or lifestyle adjustments, all customised to align with your genetic profile and specific patterns of hair loss.
Results will take 2 to 3 weeks.
During your consultation, we will advise you on the best treatments and products to use at home.
