About this test

A decline in the quality of skin, hair, and nails may indicate various other health disorders. Find out if your body is lacking vitamins or minerals, or if skin problems are signaling a hormonal imbalance or other illnesses.

Benefits of the test Nails, hair, skin
- Poor health of the skin, hair, and nails can be caused by improper nutrition, including a deficiency of certain vitamins and minerals, skin diseases, as well as various other conditions, including hormonal or metabolic disorders. This test package can help guide you in finding the cause.
- A wide range of tests examining up to 23 different blood parameters that directly or indirectly affect the health of your skin, hair, and nails.
Factors that influence the health of skin, hair, and nails include nutrition, particularly several vitamins and minerals that affect growth, metabolism, and regeneration. Their deficiency can be one of the reasons for the deteriorated condition of the skin, hair, and nails. The package includes tests for key minerals and vitamins. Other vitamins that may have an impact include vitamins A, E, C, and B7.
Deterioration in the condition of skin, hair, and nails can also appear in thyroid diseases. For example, reduced production of thyroid hormones can cause dry, rough, and pale skin, as well as hair loss. Testing the TSH hormone and the fT4 hormone can reveal this.
The package also includes a testosterone test, where increased levels in women (e.g., in certain ovarian or adrenal gland diseases, anorexia, or menstrual disorders) can manifest as excessive hair growth, acne, oily skin, and redness (especially on the scalp and face).
- Suitable for women of any age.
- Results will be available within 21 working days.
