When a hair follicle becomes infected, it swells into a small pus filled pimple. Each individual pimple looks like a small, rounded, yellow red spot.
Most cases of Folliculitis are caused by an infection; it can occur at sites where hair follicles are damaged by friction, such as shaving, a blockage of the hair follicle or over activity of the sweat glands.
A range of treatments are available and the condition usually responds well to treatment. We can provide a treatment plan, which may require regular review as the condition does sometimes relapse.
I went for my first appointment with apprehension but I needn't have worried as on meeting Ben realised that he wasn't scary at all but kind and caring. He is an expert in Trichology and has the ability to share his expertise by giving helpful information in a way that put me at ease and made me feel better able to cope with my scalp problem. Ben advised a treatment at the Salon, where I met Sabrina who did the treatment and who was also kind and friendly.
After a very disappointing and unhelpful consultation with a dermatologist, I decided to research trichologists. I'm so glad I found Ben! His approach is nurturing, friendly, thorough and scientific - much more than my dermatologist was. He helped me see things clearer than I have in a long time. I'd happily recommend Ben to anyone for hair and scalp issues!
