Fagron TrichoTest™ Genetic Hair-Loss Testing
Before spending more time and money trying hair-loss treatments, get genetic information that may help guide the decision. Fagron TrichoTest™ is a one-time pharmacogenetic test using a quick inner-cheek swab. It analyzes selected inherited variants associated with hair-loss pathways and potential response to certain treatment ingredients.
At LMC – Laser Medical Clinic in Richmond Hill, near Toronto, TrichoTest™ costs $600 CAD and includes in-clinic DNA collection, laboratory analysis, your personalized report and professional review within your clinical context.
Consultation: $0. TrichoTest™: $600 CAD.
One test. One personalized report. $600 CAD. Your initial consultation at LMC – Laser Medical Clinic in Richmond Hill is complimentary.
Why get tested? Hair loss isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither is treatment. TrichoTest™ analyzes selected genetic variants associated with relevant metabolic pathways and potential response to certain hair-loss treatment ingredients. The goal is simple: give your clinician more information before treatment decisions are made.
Your genetic results don't make the decision alone. LMC reviews them alongside your hair-loss pattern, medical history, medications, contraindications and clinical scalp assessment.
Important: TrichoTest™ is a treatment-planning tool, not a stand-alone diagnosis. It cannot identify every cause of hair loss, replace medically appropriate testing or guarantee treatment results.

TrichoTest™ adds your genetics to the treatment-planning conversation. The pharmacogenetic test examines selected inherited variants associated with hair-loss pathways and potential response to certain active ingredients. A qualified healthcare professional can then interpret those findings alongside your health history, medications and clinical assessment.
Think of it as another piece of evidence—not a crystal ball. It won't diagnose every reason you're losing hair. What it can do is provide personalized genetic information that may help make ingredient-based treatment decisions more informed.
That's it. A buccal swab is gently rubbed inside your cheek to collect DNA. There's no blood draw, scalp biopsy or downtime. Because inherited DNA variants generally don't change, the genetic collection is typically needed only once.
The laboratory analyzes selected inherited variants associated with relevant hair-loss treatment pathways and potential response to certain active ingredients. You receive a personalized report—not a generic hair-loss checklist.
This is where the report becomes useful. LMC reviews your results with your hair-loss pattern, medical history, current medications, contraindications, lifestyle factors and scalp findings before discussing appropriate options.
TrichoTest™ and HairMetrix® answer different questions. TrichoTest™ looks at selected inherited genetic variants that may help inform ingredient-based treatment selection. HairMetrix® AI hair and scalp analysis measures what's happening on your scalp, including visible characteristics such as hair density, shaft thickness and follicular units.
Put simply: TrichoTest™ looks at selected genetic information. HairMetrix® measures visible hair and scalp characteristics. Combined with a clinical assessment, they can provide different pieces of the hair-loss picture.
Considering PRP hair restoration, PRF hair restoration or scalp mesotherapy? Suitability for these procedures must be assessed separately. TrichoTest™ should not be used to claim or predict whether PRP or PRF will work.
