DNA Testing for Hair and the Scalp
If hair problems are in your DNA, there’s a solution
What information does the InGeno|Hair test provide?
Hair health is the result of a complex balance between genetics, the environment, and the condition of the scalp. Addressing only the symptom—hair loss, thinning, brittleness, or dandruff—often means neglecting the biological mechanisms that cause it. Genetic analysis identifies the root causes of these issues to provide a personalized genocosmetics program that is more effective at resolving them and maintaining the long-term balance of the hair and scalp.

Genetic analysis, together with family history, represents the most comprehensive clinical indicator of hereditary susceptibility to androgenetic alopecia. The evaluation of factors that influence hair follicle aging and scalp health adds molecular precision to this information, making it possible to:
- assess individual predisposition more accurately,
- to assess the potential risk of onset and progression,
- to develop personalized preventive strategies at an early stage.

The scalp is home to a microbial ecosystem (microbiome). Among the main microorganisms involved in the onset of scalp problems are yeasts of the genus Malassezia, Demodex spp ., and Staphylococcus epidermidis.
Disturbances in this balance (dysbiosis) can:
- compromise the skin’s barrier function,
- promote a state of persistent local inflammation,
- may cause itching, redness, excessive sebum production, and dandruff.
Analyzing these factors makes it possible to assess the stability of the skin’s ecosystem and its impact on the health of the hair and scalp.

Oxidative stress is caused by the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can damage the DNA of cells in the germinative zone of the hair follicle, including those involved in proliferation and in maintaining the hair growth cycle
An impaired ability to neutralize free radicals can:
- accelerate the aging of the hair follicle,
- promote the growth of finer, more fragile hair,
- contribute to premature graying (white hair).
Analyzing these factors makes it possible to estimate the bulb’s biological vulnerability to age-related degenerative processes and environmental stressors.

The Hair Health Index was developed to provide a comprehensive and personalized assessment of the key factors that influence hair vitality, structure, and density, combining genetic information and medical history data.
The composite score is then interpreted statistically in relation to the reference population, allowing for classification into risk levels and facilitating the identification of areas of greatest vulnerability where targeted and personalized interventions can be implemented.

Personalized genocosmetics transform the results of molecular analysis into a customized treatment plan, based on the actual biological causes of the identified issues. Not generic products, but a targeted selection of active ingredients and formulations based on:
- balance of the scalp microbiome
- level of oxidative stress and follicular aging
- genetic predisposition to baldness
- Structural Characteristics of Hair
The result is a personalized skincare routine that targets individual areas of concern, supports the hair follicle, and maintains the scalp’s balance over time.
