What is a Scalp Scope?

A scalp scope, also known as a trichoscope or dermatoscope, is a specialized device used at Believe Health and Wellness Medspa in the assessment of hair and scalp health. This tool magnifies the scalp area, providing detailed imagery that can reveal patterns not visible to the naked eye. By inspecting the scalp and hair follicles closely, certified trichologist Renee Watts can identify signs of conditions, such as alopecia, scalp infections, or other dermatological issues, that may contribute to hair loss. The scalp scope is a noninvasive tool, and its use is a crucial part of a comprehensive hair loss assessment, aiding in the accurate diagnosis and development of an effective treatment plan. To learn more about this specialized assessment tool, schedule an appointment with Renee at our Raleigh, NC facility.

What Can I Expect During a Scalp Scope Appointment?

During a scalp scope procedure at Believe Health and Wellness Medspa, Renee uses a specialized magnifying tool to examine your scalp and hair follicles closely. The process begins with preparing your hair, which may involve parting or combing it in various directions to provide clear visibility of the scalp. It's important for your scalp to be clean and free of any hair products. The provider then places the scalp scope, often equipped with a light source, directly onto the sections of your scalp. This magnifies the area, enhancing the visibility of the scalp's surface and hair follicles.

As the scope moves over different areas of the scalp, Renee observes the condition of your scalp, looking for signs of inflammation, unusual hair loss patterns, changes in hair density, the size and shape of hair follicles, scalp texture, and any signs of infection or disease. Advanced scopes have the ability to take images or videos that can be examined in greater detail later, serving as a record for future reference and monitoring treatment progress. Based on these observations, Renee can identify any abnormalities or signs of specific conditions contributing to hair loss. A scalp scope is noninvasive.

I’ve been coming to Renee now for around 3 years and was referred to her by a friend. I’ve always struggled with getting my hair to grow and get thicker. Since coming to her my hair has grown so much and looks so healthy. It went from above my shoulder to now at my mid back. She pays close attention to detail, makes you feel comfortable about what she’s doing, and uses great products. It’s very difficult finding a good stylistI that you can trust with your hair but she is it. She really focuses on hair repair and giving you the knowledge to keep it healthy. I’ve now moved a couple hours away but will be traveling back to see Renee whenever I need to get my hair done. She is amazing

I am EXTREMELY tenderheaded. Renee is the only professional I allow to touch my head/hair. She is the consummate professional and is very patient and sensitive to the fact that all of my follicles have an attitude problem.

I have been a client of Renee’s for nearly 7 years. During that time, the health of my hair has greatly improved and the length of my hair has more than doubled. She uses the best vegan, plant-based hair products and is always efficient when doing my styles. I’ve lived in the Triangle for over 20 years and this is by far the best salon and stylist I’ve ever been a client of.

My mother did my hair for years, but now I’m out on my own. I was nervous going in but Ms. Renee was so sweet and supplied so much knowledge of natural hair and the importance of taking care of the whole body, not just the hair. She uses clean products and she takes her time with your hair. I am definitely coming back to see her again!
