How many seeds should I plant?

Try to guess.
How many hats will each of them need?

The correct answer? Both are 3,500 grafts.
How can the graft count be the same when they're so different? The number of grafts transplanted must consider various factors beyond just the area.

Dr. Yoonwoo Noh, Director of Maxwell Dermatology, accurately diagnoses and performs the optimal surgical approach tailored to each patient's unique characteristics, based on over 20 years of accumulated experience and more than 500,000 treatment cases.

Five Factors Determining Parameters (Costs)

1.Predicting Hair Loss ProgressionPrecision Diagnosis That Looks Ahead to the Future

Hair transplantation should be planned not just to fill balding areas, but also with future hair loss progression in mind.
Maxwell Dermatology uses extensive experience and data-driven analysis to accurately predict hair loss progression. We transplant hair even to areas expected to thin within 2-3 years, ensuring sustained results.

2.Diagnosing the Scope of TransplantationReducing unnecessary costs and maximizing effectiveness

5,000 hair follicle transplant

Transplanting hair indiscriminately across all balding areas is inefficient and may lead to unnatural results.
Maxwell Dermatology precisely identifies areas where hair follicles remain viable beneath the skin and can be improved through treatment, along with the necessary transplant scope, to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes.

3.Diagnosis of Surgical MethodsPatient-Customized Optimal Choice

Surgical and non-surgical methods each have their own advantages and disadvantages. The most suitable surgical approach must be selected by comprehensively considering factors such as the patient's scalp elasticity, hair density at the back of the head, and the required number of grafts. Maxwell Dermatology thoroughly diagnoses each patient's individual condition to ensure satisfactory results.

4.Transplant Density DiagnosisDelicate Adjustment for Natural Results

For the 20s, we transplant as densely as possible due to the high surrounding density.

For individuals in their 40s, transplantation is performed at a relatively lower density due to reduced surrounding density.

Even for balding areas of the same size, the required hair density varies by age. For younger patients, high-density transplantation creates a natural look, while for patients in their 40s and older, we match the surrounding density to harmonize and cover larger areas.

5.Hairline DesignHair Transplant That Makes Your Face Look Smaller

We design to maximize the 'golden ratio' and 'line'.

The hairline is a highly visible area, so its design significantly alters one's appearance. By lowering the front hairline and correcting the side lines extending from the back temples to the sideburns, the face's vertical and horizontal widths are reduced. This makes the face appear smaller and the features much more defined.
