FUE hair transplant in Seoul — mega-sessions, crown and revision

Large single-day sessions, and beard or body hair where the donor scalp is not enough. At MONARA Dermatology Clinic, one minute on foot from Exit 4 of Apgujeong Station (Line 3).

Mega-sessions

Advanced loss needs graft numbers that only work if extraction, dissection and placement run continuously for a full day — which is the reason for the one-case-a-day rule. Where the back of the scalp cannot supply enough, or where the donor hair there is fine or already thinned, beard and body hair can be harvested to add volume. Body hair differs from scalp hair in calibre and growth cycle, so it is placed where those differences do not show.

The crown

At the crown the hair leaves the scalp in a spiral, and the eye reads any break in that spiral immediately. Coverage here also costs more grafts than the same area at the front, because the scalp is seen from above and light passes straight through thin placement. The crown is therefore planned against the donor supply as a whole: filling it fully in one session can be the wrong decision if the frontal line will recede later.

Revision

A revision starts with what is already in the scalp: how the previous grafts were angled, how much donor area is left, and what scarring the first operation created. The most frequent complaints are a hairline set too straight or too low, grafts placed at the wrong angle, and density that ran out halfway back. Each of those is a different problem, and some need existing grafts removed or redirected rather than simply adding more.

Questions

Is beard hair noticeably different once transplanted?
It is coarser and behaves differently, which is exactly why it is placed in the crown and mid-scalp rather than the hairline, and blended with scalp grafts.
Is one large session better than two smaller ones?
For coverage, generally yes — one anaesthetic, one recovery, one healing period. For a donor area that cannot support it, no. The assessment decides.

Questions

Can a fully bald crown be covered in one operation?
Sometimes, but the honest answer depends on the donor area. A large crown may need staging, or a combination of transplant and micropigmentation, and that is said at the consultation rather than discovered afterwards.
Does crown hair grow back more slowly?
The timeline is the same as elsewhere — shedding in the first month, visible growth from the fourth, the outcome judged at a year — but the crown looks thinner for longer because it is viewed from above.

Questions

How long after the first operation can I have a revision?
The first result should be mature — around a year — before a revision is planned, so that what is actually missing can be seen rather than estimated.
Can a hairline that was set too low be raised?
Grafts in the wrong position can be removed and re-placed, and micropigmentation can soften the transition. What is achievable depends on how many are involved.
