Hair Loss Diagnosis & Consultation at MONARA Dermatology Clinic

One-to-one assessment with the director before any treatment is proposed.

The clinic's stated position is that hair loss is a condition, not a grooming problem, and that treatment starts from an accurate examination rather than from a product. Consultation and diagnosis are conducted by Dr. Kim personally — the same person who will perform whatever is decided.

Signals that are checkedMore than a hundred hairs shed daily; a scalp that runs hot or red; hair that has lost body, tangles and pulls out easily; sudden itching, inflammation or dandruff.
Assessed against the whole pictureSleep quality, fatigue and general health are asked about, because the clinic treats the scalp as part of the body rather than in isolation.
Surgery is not the defaultWhere treatment is the better route, that is what is recommended. Where the loss is too advanced for treatment alone, that is said plainly.
Direct to the directorConsultation, diagnosis, design and treatment are the same person throughout.

Questions

Can I be assessed remotely before I fly?

Send photographs of the front, crown and donor area with a description of how the loss has progressed. A preliminary opinion and a realistic graft range can be given before you book travel; the final plan is set in person.

What if I am told not to have surgery?

Then that is the answer. Advanced diffuse loss with a thin donor area is not improved by a transplant, and treatment or micropigmentation may serve better.

Questions

Hair loss treatment — what patients ask

Will the back of my head be visibly scarred?

Not in the way a strip operation scars it. FUE leaves one dot under a millimetre wide per extraction, scattered rather than joined into a line. The number of dots rises with the number of grafts, but growing the surrounding hair even slightly covers them. Hair does not regrow from an extraction point itself; the follicles deliberately left behind carry the density of the donor area afterwards.

How painful is it, honestly?

On a scale where nothing is 0 and unbearable is 10, patients generally place the strip method at 4 to 5 and FUE at 1 to 2. Local anaesthesia is standard and sedation is available. Pain after the operation is mild enough that most people return to ordinary activity the following day.
