The 10 Best Hair Transplant Clinics in Seoul

Goodmona suits men who want a surgeon's full attention on the day of surgery. The clinic operates on one male patient per day, in sessions of around eight hours, and focuses on men's hairline transplants. Its operating room is transparent, so the whole procedure can be observed. The same clinic offers hair-loss treatment and a head spa, which helps with care before and after a transplant.

Motion Clinic suits patients who have already decided on FUE and want a clinic that does nothing else. It has worked only with follicular unit extraction since opening in 2003. The clinic holds KAHF accreditation for serving foreign patients, with English, Chinese and Japanese staff reachable around the clock. Before travelling, patients can send photos for a free online consultation and a hairline design drawn on their own picture.

Mopro suits patients with a specific problem such as a cowlick, a scar or a disappointing earlier transplant. Alongside men's transplants and women's hairline correction, the clinic lists cowlick correction, scar and eyebrow grafts and revision surgery. Representative director Dr Moon Gun-hak sees patients and advises whether a transplant or medical treatment is the better choice. Its website runs in English, Traditional Chinese and Japanese.

Woomchan suits patients who want the same doctor from consultation to follow-up. Chief surgeon Dr Hyun Sang-yun commits to seeing each patient through every stage. The clinic offers shaven and non-shaven FUE, FUT and combined sessions for large areas, plus hairline design for women. English-speaking staff are available, and enquiries can go through WhatsApp, LINE, KakaoTalk or WeChat, which makes it easy to send photos for a first assessment.

New Hair suits men and women who want a dense result over a large area. The clinic offers both strip and follicular extraction, with separate programmes for ultra-high-density and large-volume transplants and for revision of earlier surgery. Women's hairline correction is planned together with an S-line temple design to make the forehead look smaller. Its doctors share hair-loss information through the clinic's YouTube channel.

Dream Hairline suits visitors with limited time, as consultation, transplant and styling can be completed in a single day. Its signature method is non-shaven FUE, which keeps the existing hair long so the procedure is less visible afterwards. The clinic also offers shaven FUE, strip surgery, women's hairlines and grafts for eyebrows, sideburns, beards and scars. English, Japanese and Chinese sites and a WhatsApp line serve international patients.

Modumo suits patients with extensive hair loss who want a large session in one day, with more than 10,000 hairs possible in a single sitting. The clinic does both non-incision and incision transplants, the latter under its The Black name, and uses an AFS 3D scanner to map the areas to fill and harvest. When scalp donor hair is short, body hair such as beard can be used. Scalp micropigmentation is offered as a non-surgical alternative.

Momentum suits people who are unsure whether they need a transplant or medical treatment. Director Dr Lee Sun-min carries out every diagnosis and injection personally, and the first visit checks scalp and follicles before any plan is proposed. FUE transplants are designed with face shape and future hairstyles in mind, while PRP and follicle injections aim to protect existing hair. A programme for hair loss after chemotherapy includes scalp cooling.

FORHAIR suits patients who want a non-incision transplant from a clinic that does no strip surgery. Part of the Cole Hair Transplant Group, it performs only FUE and operates on one patient per day. Grafts are implanted within an hour of harvesting, and harvesting is spread to keep about three quarters of the donor density at the back of the head. Women's hairlines and eyebrow, beard and sideburn grafts are also offered.

Mojelim suits patients who want an established clinic with separate men's and women's teams. It has performed hair transplants since 1997 and runs a men's design lab and a women's hairline centre. Both FUT and FUE are offered, along with eyebrow, beard, scar and revision transplants. CCTV runs in the operating rooms, and an English-speaking WhatsApp line handles international enquiries.
