Stem-Cell Enriched Grafting – Cost in Korea
Stem-cell enriched grafting augments traditional hair transplant procedures (FUT or FUE) by using stem cells—often derived from adipose tissue or the patient's own follicular units—to promote enhanced survival, healing, and hair density. Clinics in Korea typically combine this advanced therapy with standard graft placement, post-op kits, and follow-up care.
