Find Answers for Complex Skin and Eye Conditions
If you’re struggling with persistent skin issues, unexplained hair loss, and extreme light sensitivity that affects your daily life, you’re not alone. The MBTPS2 Gene Test provides the genetic clarity needed to understand these challenging symptoms and take control of your health journey.
Understanding the MBTPS2 Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test examines the MBTPS2 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the most accurate method available for detecting genetic mutations associated with Ichthyosis Follicularis Atricia and Photophobia Syndrome. Unlike basic genetic screenings, our comprehensive analysis provides detailed insights into the specific genetic variations that may be causing your symptoms.
The test requires a simple blood sample or DNA extraction, making the process comfortable and straightforward. Our professional team ensures your sample is handled with the utmost care and precision throughout the entire testing process.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Persistent dry, scaly skin that doesn’t respond to typical treatments
- Unexplained hair loss or sparse hair growth
- Extreme sensitivity to light (photophobia) that affects daily activities
- Family history of similar skin and eye conditions
- Multiple symptoms that haven’t been explained by other medical tests
Many South Africans with these symptoms have found answers through genetic testing, enabling them to pursue more targeted treatment approaches.

Understanding your genetic profile can transform your healthcare journey by:
- Providing definitive answers about your condition
