Hair Loss and Scalp Treatment for Burgess Hill Patients

An itchy, flaky or inflamed scalp can contribute to shedding, so we assess the scalp as well as the hair. We treat seborrhoeic dermatitis, folliculitis and scalp psoriasis alongside male and female pattern loss, alopecia areata, diffuse shedding and scarring hair loss.

Because these conditions overlap, a specialist diagnosis is what points to the right treatment rather than guesswork.

Your consultation covers the history and pattern of your hair loss and any scalp symptoms, followed by a close examination of the hair and scalp using advanced diagnostics.

Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may include medical and prescription options for the scalp and hair, and procedural treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

Hair and scalp care is led by consultants with a specific interest in the area, including clinical lead Dr Paul Farrant, whose focus on hair and scalp medicine spans more than 25 years, and our team holds European Hair Research Society and British Hair & Nail Society memberships.

Hair and scalp appointments are held at our Matlock Road clinic, 10b Matlock Road, Brighton (BN1 5BF), around nine miles from Burgess Hill on a direct train line, with no referral needed.

Persistent itching, flaking or inflammation of the scalp is not just uncomfortable, it can contribute to hair shedding, and treating the scalp condition often improves the hair as well. Seborrhoeic dermatitis, folliculitis and scalp psoriasis all fall into this category.

A specialist assessment looks at the scalp as well as the hair, so an underlying condition is not missed and treatment addresses the actual cause of the shedding.

Burgess Hill patients can book directly at our Brighton clinic and see a consultant from the outset. Fees, and the likely cost of any treatment, are confirmed before your appointment.
