1. Physician Consultation and Design

After arrival, 1:1 customized consultation with the attending physician takes place in the consultation room.
After rechecking the scalp condition and hair loss progress, the hairline design is planned according to face shape and hair direction.
Sufficient explanation and guidance are provided and the surgery consent form is completed.

2. Changing and Preparation

Change into the patient gown prepared in the dressing room and store your belongings.
Since the scalp becomes sensitive after surgery, we recommend tops that open in the front, such as button-up or zip-up clothing.

3. Moving to and Entering the Operating Room

Once preparations are complete, you move to the operating room.
After a final recheck of the surgical information and the designed hairline, the area is trimmed and anesthesia preparation begins.

4. Anesthesia and Surgery Preparation

After a brief explanation from the medical staff, local anesthesia is administered.
Once the anesthesia is confirmed to be effective and no issues are found, the hair transplant surgery begins in earnest.

5. Follicle Extraction and Separation

The attending physician extracts the follicles directly.
In the incision (FUT) method, the back of the head is incised to extract follicles, while the non-incision (FUE) method harvests them one by one with a fine punch device.
High-magnification equipment minimizes follicle damage, and the harvested follicles are stored and sorted in a cytokine solution.
For FUT, follicles are separated unit by unit as needed; for FUE, they are quickly trimmed to complete the transplant preparation.

6. Hair Transplant

The healthy harvested follicles are implanted one by one by the attending physician using an implanter, according to the designed transplant area and placement.
Considering the face shape and the direction of existing hair, a natural and successful result is pursued.

7. Hair Transplant Finishing

In the finishing stage, a leveling process that finely adjusts the depth of the implanted follicles is performed for the best possible result, followed by a final check.

Hair Transplant Process

MOMO promises a new life beyond hair loss.

  • 1:1 Attending Physician Care

    Consultation, Design, and Surgery

    From start to finish, your attending physician
    personally manages the entire process from consultation to post-surgery.

  • Systematic Post-Surgery Management

    Post-Surgery Care

    A dedicated manager provides 1:1 supervision
    for your recovery. We offer discounts on scalp care products and programs for surgical patients, and provide an after-care kit to all patients so they can continue care at home immediately after surgery, ensuring customized management based on progress.

  • High Engraftment Rate

    Cytokine Follicle Storage

    Harvested hair follicles must be stored in a low-temperature environment of 2-8°C. Until transplantation, we store them in a cytokine solution rather than saline to maintain healthy follicles and ensure safe storage until the procedure.

  • Self-Developed Implanter

    In-house Development

    MOMO's medical team, backed by experience with vast amounts of patient data, participated in the research.

    We developed needles in 17 different thicknesses to easily adjust the direction, density, and angle of hair, allowing for transplantation tailored to each individual's hair thickness.

  • Free Hair Loss Medication Prescription

    For MOMO Surgical Patients

    For MOMO surgical patients,
    we provide free lifetime prescriptions for hair loss medication to ensure continued management even after surgery.

  • Density Guarantee Hospital

    Responsibility Guarantee Certificate Provided

    To ensure satisfying results after hair transplant surgery, we take responsibility for and guarantee the engraftment of the transplanted hair. If the patient is dissatisfied with the engraftment rate or transplant density compared to pre-surgery, we provide free retouching surgery.
