Scalp issues—such as excessive oiliness, dandruff, itching, or increased hair loss—often stem from a disruption in normal scalp function. A trichological scalp peel is a medical procedure designed to provide controlled exfoliation of the epidermis and create optimal conditions for further diagnosis and treatment. At PT Clinic, this peel is not performed routinely; it is always preceded by a medical assessment to ensure the chosen approach addresses the actual cause of the problem.
*The treatment parameters presented are based on PT Clinic’s medical standards and trichological procedures, drawing upon guidelines from scientific societies in the fields of dermatology and medical cosmetology regarding professional scalp cleansing. The final cleansing results, the degree of scalp regeneration, and the frequency of treatments depend on the patient’s individual biological characteristics.
A trichological scalp peel involves the controlled exfoliation of the stratum corneum using products with keratolytic, sebum-regulating, or skin-microbiome-normalizing properties. The procedure is performed in a medical setting and constitutes part of a trichological treatment regimen rather than a standalone treatment method.
The purpose of the exfoliation treatment is to remove excess sebum, dead skin cells, and impurities that can disrupt hair follicle function and hinder the absorption of active ingredients used in subsequent stages of therapy.
Before deciding on the procedure, check the key details of the trichological scalp peel—including indications, duration, the fact that no anesthesia is required, the course of the treatment series, and the cleansing results—all in one place.
“A trichological scalp peel is not an end in itself. It is a tool that supports the assessment of the scalp’s condition and prepares it for appropriate treatment—always following prior diagnosis.”
Trichological scalp exfoliation at PT Clinic is a structured medical procedure, preceded by an assessment of the scalp condition and performed only when there is a diagnostic or therapeutic justification. The treatment is not carried out routinely and always takes into account the patient's individual needs.
The process begins with a medical assessment, comprising a detailed medical history and a clinical evaluation of the scalp. Where indicated, a trichoscopic examination is performed to assess the degree of epidermal keratinization, sebum levels, and the presence of inflammatory lesions. At this stage, the physician determines whether the peel is appropriate and selects the suitable product and treatment approach.
Following a suitability assessment, a trichological scalp peel is performed using a product selected based on the skin type and the intended outcome. The substance is applied in a controlled manner, with the treatment time adjusted to the skin's sensitivity and the specific conditions observed. The procedure is carried out in accordance with safety protocols and current medical knowledge.
After the procedure, the doctor assesses the scalp's reaction and discusses their observations with the patient. Based on this, further recommendations are determined; these may include topical treatment, the initiation of trichological therapy, monitoring, or preparing the scalp for subsequent stages of diagnosis and treatment.
The cost of a trichological scalp peel at PT Clinic is determined on an individual basis, as it depends on the condition of the scalp, the type of disorders present, and the treatment objective. The procedure is always preceded by a medical assessment to determine its suitability and the appropriate scope of treatment.
The price may apply to a single procedure or form part of a planned course of trichological treatment carried out at specific intervals.
During the consultation, the doctor discusses with the patient the possible courses of action, the anticipated nature of further therapy, and the estimated cost of the entire process, tailored to individual medical indications.
