Find Answers for Skin Fragility and Woolly Hair Concerns
Living with fragile skin that tears easily or unusual hair texture can feel isolating and worrying. You might be wondering if there’s a genetic reason behind these symptoms and what it means for your health. At Oracle Genomics, we understand your concerns and provide the clarity you deserve through our advanced DSP Gene Skin Fragility-Woolly Hair Syndrome genetic test.
This isn’t just about getting answers – it’s about understanding your body, managing your health proactively, and finding peace of mind knowing you’re taking control of your genetic health journey.
Understanding the DSP Gene Test
The DSP Gene Skin Fragility-Woolly Hair Syndrome test examines your DNA for mutations in the DSP (desmoplakin) gene. This gene plays a crucial role in creating strong connections between skin cells and hair follicles. When mutations occur, it can lead to fragile skin that blisters or tears easily, along with distinctive woolly or coarse hair texture.
Our test uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, the most advanced method available, ensuring extremely accurate results you can trust for making important health decisions.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Skin that blisters, tears, or is unusually fragile
- Woolly, coarse, or unusually textured hair
- Family history of similar skin or hair conditions
- Unexplained skin sensitivity or healing difficulties
- Concerns about passing genetic conditions to children
Many South Africans live with these symptoms without understanding the underlying cause. Getting tested provides the clarity needed for proper management and peace of mind.
