Stem Cell Alopecia Therapy in Seoul
Nanoori Stem Cell Center, Gangnam
Hair loss—whether androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss) or alopecia areata (autoimmune)—can affect confidence fast. You may see “stem cell” claims online. At Nanoori Stem Cell Center, our clinical specialty is orthopedic regenerative care. For alopecia, any stem-cell–related use is investigational. We coordinate safe, guideline-first options with board-certified dermatology partners and provide clear, travel-friendly plans.
Straight talk: We do not offer unregulated “stem cell drips” or non-compliant scalp injections. Dermatology leads all hair-loss care; any cell-related adjuncts (e.g., conditioned media/exosome-type products) are specialist-dependent and must follow local regulations.
Who This Is For
- Androgenetic alopecia (male/female pattern thinning) in early–moderate stages
- Alopecia areata (patchy loss) after dermatology evaluation
- Post-partum or stress-related shedding (after medical clearance)
- Patients seeking non-surgical options or support before/after hair transplant
Evidence-Based Options We Coordinate (Dermatology-Led)
- Medications: topical/oral minoxidil, finasteride/dutasteride (men), anti-androgen strategies for women when appropriate
- PRP series: platelet-rich plasma injections to support follicle function
- Low-level light therapy and scalp-health protocols (seborrhea, dermatitis)
- Alopecia areata care: dermatology-guided immunomodulatory options (topicals/injections; advanced therapies per specialist)
- Transplant consults when density goals exceed non-surgical methods
- Investigational adjuncts: clinic-regulated cell-derived biologics only as add-ons—not stand-alone “stem cell cures”
Your Care Path with Nanoori
- Screening & Baseline – History, medication review, photos; bring labs if available (iron, thyroid, vitamin D).
- Dermatology Coordination – Confirm diagnosis (pattern vs. areata vs. telogen), set expectations and timeline.
- Series & Support – Start medication + PRP series (typ. 3–4 sessions, 4–6 weeks apart) + home plan (LLLT/scalp care).
- Follow-Up – Photo-matched tracking every 3–4 months; adjust plan or consider transplant if needed.
What to Expect
- Weeks 4–8: Less shedding; scalp quality improves.
- Months 3–6: Early thickening of miniaturized hairs; better coverage at part/whorl.
- Months 6–12: Visible density gains with continued maintenance.
Response varies by cause, duration, hormones, and adherence.
Safety & Considerations
- PRP uses your own blood; common temporary effects include tenderness/redness at injection sites.
- Alopecia areata requires dermatology-led diagnosis and therapy; relapses can occur—plan for maintenance.
- Avoid clinics promising “stem cell cures” or immediate permanent regrowth.
FAQ
Is this a stem-cell hair transplant?
No. Transplants move existing follicles; PRP/medications support growth. Any cell-related products are investigational, regulated, and adjunctive only.
How many PRP sessions do I need?
Typically
3–4 to start, then
maintenance every 4–6 months per dermatology advice.
Can I begin during a short Seoul visit?
Yes. We can arrange an initial consult, start treatment, and provide a home follow-up plan.
