Post-Illness

Post-COVID & Post-Illness Shedding
Investigated.

Severe illness — including COVID-19 — commonly triggers heavy shedding a couple of months later. The shedding is dramatic, but the follicle is almost always still alive.

What this usually looks like

  • Dramatic shedding a few months after illness
  • Fatigue and slow overall recovery
  • Loss of taste or smell in your history
  • Diffuse thinning across the whole scalp
The Open Question

Recognizing it is not the same as proving it.

Post-COVID & Post-Illness Shedding looks like several other suspects from the outside — which is why so many people treat the wrong one for years. Your Hair Investigation™ settles it, in private, with Dr. Leola.

Our Scope, Clearly Stated

The Hair Loss Detective™ provides comprehensive non-medical investigative trichology assessments focused on hair and scalp wellness. Based on your history, scalp examination, digital imaging and investigative findings, Trichologist Dr. Leola Anifowoshe may identify hair loss patterns that appear consistent with known forms of hair loss. These are investigative observations — not medical diagnoses. Medical diagnosis and prescriptions sit outside our scope. Individual results vary.
