Understanding the Pull Test: A Vital Step in Diagnosing Hair Loss
At Estefarya Hair Transplant Center, we prioritize a thorough and accurate diagnosis before recommending any hair restoration treatment. The Pull Test is an essential diagnostic tool that helps us understand the extent and nature of a patient’s hair loss, ensuring that we provide tailored and effective solutions.
What is the Pull Test?
The Pull Test is a simple yet informative diagnostic procedure used to assess hair loss. It involves gently pulling on a small section of hair (about 40-60 strands) to determine how many hairs are shed from the root. The number of hairs that come out helps evaluate the severity and type of hair loss.
Key Aspects of the Pull Test:
- Immediate Results: One of the advantages of the Pull Test is that it provides immediate information about the stability of the hair and the degree of shedding.
- Determining Hair Loss Type: The Pull Test helps differentiate between active shedding phases and more stable phases of hair loss. A positive Pull Test, where excessive hairs are removed, may indicate active shedding or an underlying condition.
- Guiding Treatment Decisions: The results of the Pull Test can influence the course of treatment. For example, a positive Pull Test may lead to further diagnostic tests or immediate intervention to stabilize hair loss.
The Role of the Pull Test in Comprehensive Hair Evaluation
At Estefarya Hair Transplant Center, the Pull Test is part of a comprehensive evaluation process. Our approach includes:
