THE PURPOSE BEHIND THE PANEL.

Investigate possible contributors to hair loss.

Hair loss has many patterns and causes. The included tests can support a clinical assessment of selected nutritional or endocrine contributors. The scalp history, examination, medicines, recent illness and family pattern remain central to deciding what a result means.

Blood count — conceptual laboratory artwork1test or panel

1 included test or panel

Cells, counts and patterns.

A complete blood count describes red cells, white cells and platelets. The pattern can contribute to an assessment of anaemia, infection-related concerns or other clinical questions.

What this means in context

A count does not explain every abnormality. The full component list stays visible so a headline number does not hide the measurements.

KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE CHOOSING.

32 biomarkers.
The scope, made clear.

The headline measurement count includes multi-component panels where present. The included test records and their published nested measurements are displayed separately so the count is transparent.

Let’s make sure it matches.

THE RIGHT START DEPENDS ON YOU.

A useful package.
A personal decision.

Choose the investigation around the question you want to discuss. A normal panel does not exclude common genetic, inflammatory, traction-related or other scalp conditions.

01

A defined question

Hair loss has many patterns and causes. The included tests can support a clinical assessment of selected nutritional or endocrine contributors. The scalp history, examination, medicines, recent illness and family pattern remain central to deciding what a result means.

02

Matching a prescription

Compare the full included list with your clinician’s request. A normal panel does not exclude common genetic, inflammatory, traction-related or other scalp conditions.

03

Following a previous finding

Bring earlier results and the relevant symptom or treatment history. The clinician can decide whether this scope, a smaller test selection or a different investigation is the most useful next step.

MAKE THE SAMPLE COUNT.

A little preparation.
A more useful result.

Preparation follows the actual specimen and tests in Hair Loss Profile. Confirm your personal instructions before collection.

RESULT + CONTEXT

Cells, counts and patterns.

A complete blood count describes red cells, white cells and platelets. The pattern can contribute to an assessment of anaemia, infection-related concerns or other clinical questions. A count does not explain every abnormality. The full component list stays visible so a headline number does not hide the measurements.

Questions to take to your clinician
  • What does this part of my result add to the clinical question?
  • Does the sample timing or a medicine affect this finding?
  • What follow-up is appropriate for this specific result?

THE NEXT STEP IS PERSONAL.

Bring the findings
back to you.

Connect the laboratory findings with the reason for this specific test. A report supports the next clinical conversation; it does not decide it for you.

clinician and adult patient discussing laboratory results
01

Connect the findings with the scalp assessment

Review any relevant iron, thyroid, blood-count or nutritional findings with the pattern and history of hair loss. A scalp examination or dermatology assessment may still be useful when the laboratory results are normal.

02

Agree the next step

Discuss this result with a clinician who knows the reason for testing. Further investigations or follow-up depend on the actual findings and your circumstances.

BEFORE YOU BOOK.

A little more
clarity.

Preparation, sample types, timing and what the package does—and does not—include.

What is included in Hair Loss Profile?

Blood count, iron-related tests, thyroid hormones and selected vitamins, zinc and testosterone. The full named inventory on this page is the scope of the package.

Will this panel tell me the exact cause of my hair loss?

Not by itself. It checks specified laboratory contributors; diagnosis may also require examination of the scalp and a dermatology assessment.

Can thyroid or iron findings be relevant to hair loss?

They can be relevant in some people, which is why selected related tests are included. They do not account for every pattern of hair loss.

Is a scalp examination still useful?

Yes. The pattern, scalp findings and history may identify causes that blood tests cannot.

Does a normal result mean no treatment is possible?

No. A normal laboratory panel does not settle a hair-loss diagnosis or the treatment options.

How should I prepare?

The package preparation guidance specifies an 8–12-hour fast. Confirm the instructions for your appointment; plain water is permitted. Ask the clinician how to manage medicines or any difficulty fasting.

Can I arrange collection in Dubai?

Yes. Choose home collection across Dubai or a visit to Intel Lab in Deira. Any health package waives the collection fee for its own visit; separate appointments are assessed separately.

What is the price and expected turnaround?

The package price is AED 449; the listed turnaround is 48 hours. Confirm collection and processing arrangements with the team. Turnaround is not a guarantee that every result will be released at one exact time.

What happens after I receive the result?

Review relevant findings with a qualified clinician alongside the reason for testing, symptoms, medicines and prior results. The report may lead to reassurance about the tested question, confirmation, a targeted investigation or follow-up—not an automatic treatment decision.

YOUR NEXT STEP. AROUND YOU.

A clearer question.
A more informed next step.
