Wheaton Families Trust the Lice Lifters.

When Wheaton families visit our clinic, they experience our professional three-phase approach to head lice treatment that combines thorough screening, careful manual removal, and supportive follow-up care. Your appointment begins with a comprehensive head check where our specialists carefully examine your hair and scalp using proper lighting and magnification to identify all visible signs of lice and nits, including those that may be difficult to spot. We take time to give you accurate information about what we’re finding and answer questions you have about your situation. Following this detailed evaluation, we implement our careful extraction technique using specialized fine-toothed combs designed specifically for removing both active lice and firmly attached nits from all hair types and textures. Our trained technicians have developed considerable skill at this meticulous work, and we handle the diverse hair types common in our community with genuine care and respect for your comfort throughout the process. The treatment continues with application of our professional formula that provides additional support against any organisms we might have missed during the careful combing phase. This integrated three-step approach helps ensure families experience meaningful relief while minimizing the need for extensive home treatment or repeat visits. Our specialists also provide personalized guidance on prevention strategies tailored to your household situation, including practical recommendations for washing practices and steps to help prevent future infestation. We believe in equipping families with the knowledge and tools they need to feel confident moving forward. Every family’s circumstances are unique, and we’re committed to answering your questions and providing support whenever you need it.

Lice Treatment FAQ — Wheaton

How far is Wheaton from our clinic? We can help.

Wheaton is very close to our Silver Spring clinic, about 10 minutes via Georgia Ave heading south. Families near Wheaton Mall can also take the Metro Red Line from Wheaton station to Silver Spring.

How do we tell lice from dandruff?

Dandruff flakes easily brush off the hair, while lice nits are glued firmly to the hair shaft and do not move when you touch them. Live lice are small, tan or brown, and move quickly when exposed to light. Book a professional head check for a definitive answer.

When can my child next steps?

After treatment, your child can return to normal activities. MCPS does not have a no-nit policy. Our professional treatment provides the relief your family needs to move forward with confidence.

Can I catch lice from hats at a store? We can help.

The risk is extremely low. Lice need sustained head-to-head contact to transfer, and they survive poorly on surfaces. Most transmission happens between people during close personal contact.
