Follicle Score
Regrowth signal detected at the vertex.
The premise
You can’t feel a follicle improving. You have to measure it.
1
The mirror lies.
Day-to-day change is invisible to the human eye. The same photo, scored over time, isn't.
2
Six months.
Most treatments need that long before visible change. Without measurement, you're guessing the whole way.
3
One bad year.
The cost of staying on a treatment that isn't working is a year you can't get back.
Real result
Marcus caught a stalled treatment at month 4, not month 12.
Started on topical minoxidil 5%. Here’s what HairAnalyst told him at each check-in, and where it told him to change course.

Follicle Score
Minoxidil 5%
Density essentially unchanged. Mild shedding consistent with the expected minoxidil dread shed.
Next: Hold the routine. Reassess at month 4.

Follicle Score
Min + Finasteride
Density flat vs baseline. No measurable conversion of miniaturized hairs. Topical monotherapy is underperforming.
Next: Add oral finasteride 1mg daily. Continue minoxidil.

Follicle Score
Min + Finasteride
Clear regrowth signal since adding finasteride. Vertex density up 14 points in 4 months.
Next: Continue combination therapy. Reassess at month 12.
“The flat line at month four wasn’t a failure. It was the signal to change the protocol.”
How it works
A check-in routine you’ll actually keep.
1
Scan in 30 seconds
Take guided photos of your hairline, crown, part and temples every 2 to 4 weeks.
2
AI dermatology read
A clinical model trained on derm rubrics scores density, miniaturization, recession and scalp health.

See the trend
If treatment is working, you'll see it. If not, you'll get evidence-based alternatives.
The analysis
Read like a dermatologist would.
Every scan is evaluated on six dermatology-grade dimensions used in androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium evaluations.
