HairMetrix Imaging- A breakthrough in Hair Loss Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair loss is a common concern that affects both confidence and appearance. Traditional methods of diagnosing hair loss often rely on visual inspection or invasive tests, which may not provide a complete view of the condition. Dr. Rapaport utilizes HairMetrix Imaging technology, a groundbreaking advancement that offers a non-invasive, highly accurate approach to assessing and treating hair loss with precision.
What is HairMetrix Imaging?
Using state-of-the-art AI algorithms, HairMetrix processes unclipped tricoscopy images and provides a detailed overview of hair health. Key measurements include:
- Hair count per cm²
- Total hair width per cm²
- Terminal-to-vellus hair ratio (average)
- Average number of hairs per follicular unit
- Average hair width
- Follicle count per cm²
These data points allow Dr. Rapaport to accurately assess the extent of hair thinning and create tailored treatment plans to address each patient’s specific needs.
Through HairMetrix®, Dr. Rapaport provides fully automated, real-time hair analysis for his patients. This advanced technology requires no hair clipping and ensures precise monitoring of treatment outcomes.
HairMetrix® also features a phototrichogram mode that measures Anagen/Telogen ratios and growth rates, along with terminal/vellus hair counts, for a more comprehensive understanding of hair loss.
