A practice owned and run by a Westcountry consultant and clinical trichologist for people who need guidance, treatment and support for hair and skin disorders of the scalp.
Susan Devenish Mutton BEd(Hons) MIT(London) LCGI is a registered trichologist and a member and tutor for the Institute of Trichologists.
TRICHOLOGY is the science of hair and clinical trichology is the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the scalp and hair. Trichologists employ the same diagnostic procedures as their medically qualified colleagues, and by and large, use traditional dermatological treatments and approaches.
Clinical Trichology is neither an alternative nor a complementary medicine - and it doesn't deal exclusively with hair, as is commonly supposed.
The Institute of Trichologists was founded in 1902 to further knowledge and understanding of the hair and scalp from the scientific point of view and to provide properly trained and qualified practitioners who could give help and advice to men, women and children suffering from various problems which can affect the condition of their hair and scalp such as:
Correct diagnosis is followed by the recommendation of a prescribed regime of suitably medicated products which, when used on a regular basis, as advised, over a reasonable period of time, have been found to be effective.
The Devon Trichology Practice is both a cosmetic manufacturer and pharmaceutically trained specialist.

'to be invited to give a lecture to them on the new premises and wishes them examination success'.
Thinking of a Career in Trichology?...
As a Trichologist my areas of expertise include patient
contact, diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the
hair and scalp and as a cosmetic scientist the mixing
and supply of preparations for use in my practice and
for patients’ home use. Trichology is a specialised area
of dermatology; therefore a broad base of knowledge
