What is stem cell hair restoration?
Many common types of hair loss, such as pattern hair loss, happen when hair follicles gradually shrink and produce thinner, shorter hairs. Regenerative scalp treatments aim to support these follicles by delivering growth factors directly to the scalp.
Depending on the plan, the doctor may use PRP prepared from your own blood or a stem cell-based treatment from our stem cell therapy range, injected across thinning areas with fine needles. These treatments do not create new follicles where they have been lost completely, so they are more suited to thinning hair rather than bald areas. They are often combined with medical hair-loss treatments; see our hair loss treatments page.
Who is a good candidate?
- Early to moderate thinning on the crown or parting
- Male or female pattern hair loss
- Diffuse thinning after stress or illness
- People who want a non-surgical option
- Anyone combining care with medical hair-loss treatment
It is less effective where the scalp is already bald, and it is usually postponed during pregnancy, with scalp infection, or with blood disorders or blood-thinning medication. Sudden or patchy hair loss should be medically assessed first, as thyroid problems, iron deficiency or other causes may need different treatment.

What results can I expect?
Hair grows slowly, so changes take time. Many people first notice less shedding, then gradually thicker-looking hair over three to six months. A typical course involves three to six sessions spaced about four weeks apart, followed by periodic maintenance, because the underlying causes of hair loss continue. Scalp tenderness or mild swelling usually settles within a day or two. Results vary considerably between individuals, and evidence for stem cell-based hair treatments is still developing, so the doctor will discuss realistic expectations.
How the treatment works
-
Consultation & scalp check
The doctor examines your scalp and hair pattern, discusses your history and identifies the likely type of hair loss.
-
Preparation
If PRP or a blood-derived treatment is used, a small blood sample is taken and processed; numbing or cooling is applied to the scalp.
-
Scalp injections
The regenerative solution is injected across thinning areas of the scalp with fine needles.
-
Aftercare
Avoid washing your hair for the rest of the day, and skip saunas, swimming, hair dye and intense exercise for a day or two.
Tips for international patients
- Bring a list of any medications or supplements you take for hair loss to your consultation.
- Wear a hat or loose hood after treatment if you want to cover the scalp.
- Plan a course over several visits or combine with home treatment the doctor recommends.
- Message us on WhatsApp to plan sessions around your trips to Seoul.
Frequently asked questions
Does stem cell hair restoration work?
It may help reduce shedding and improve thickness in thinning areas for some people, but results vary and evidence is still developing. It does not regrow hair on fully bald areas.
How many sessions are needed for hair restoration?
A course of three to six sessions about four weeks apart is common, followed by maintenance sessions.
Does stem cell hair treatment hurt?
Scalp injections can sting, but numbing or cooling helps. Mild tenderness for a day or two is normal.
When will I see results?
Many people notice less shedding first, with thicker-looking hair after about three to six months.
Is it the same as a hair transplant?
No. A hair transplant moves follicles surgically, while regenerative injections aim to support existing follicles without surgery.
How much does stem cell hair restoration cost in Seoul?
The price depends on the treatment used and number of sessions, so the doctor confirms it at consultation. You can see published prices on the stem cell and PRP price list.
