WHAT WE DO
We focus exclusively on the diagnosis and treatment of hair loss for men and women using cutting edge surgical techniques. We also offer advice on clinically-proven medications to reverse or slow down hair thinning. We use the trichoscopy to study the scalp and hair, calculate donor capacity prior to a hair transplant session and monitor treatment and follow-up.
TRICHOSCOPICALLY CONTROLLED FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)
We perform the latest FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) technique where hair follicles are extracted individually from back of the head using specific designed tools with a diameter of less than 1mm. The hair follicles are then implanted directly into the thinning areas at an angle and density to mimic the natural hair growth pattern. Once transplanted, the hair will grow for lifetime because are genetically-resistant against baldness. The procedure is carried out using local anesthetic. Full results are seen after 9-12 months.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) HAIR TREATMENT OFFERED
PRP is a substance found within your blood that contains platelets, growth factors and other bioactive proteins. We use PRP during and after the procedure to maintain the grafts until they are implanted into the thinning areas. PRP promotes tissue repair & healing, preserves and enhances hair follicle viability, helps reinvigorate dormant hair follicles and stimulates new hair growth.
THE IQ HAIR GUARANTEE
We guarantee to replace any non-growing hair transplant follicular units at no extra cost. We perform the trichoscopy (12 months after the procedure) to count and assess the growth of the transplanted hair. In case some follicular units will not regrow (excluding a small, normal and acceptable deviation of 5%), a complimentary FUE hair transplant will be performed.
We provide you with ongoing advice and help on monitoring your growth progress and hair loss using our e-health system. You will be able to return to us for regular check-ups, send us your pictures, lab tests and receive recommendations on various therapeutic options available to you.

We offer FUE Beard and Facial hair transplants to restore density on different areas of the face. These procedures can restore the cheek, beard, goatee, moustache, sideburns and in general anywhere that hair is desired including acne scars and other types of scars.
This method is used to restore growing hair to eyebrows that are thin, scarred or completely missing. The donor hairs come from the back of the head, single hair follicles are used for this procedure. The hairs are then positioned to mimic natural growth.
Our clinic specialises in corrective hair transplant procedures. The common problems caused by some outdated methods are the hair-plug look, wrong direction of the grafts and scarring in the donor area.
We collaborate with medical and beauty professionals who are dedicated to help their patients and clients who suffer from hair loss. We offer private and one-to-one free consultations for patients and free presentations for doctors, medical providers, beauty and salon professionals.
If you would like to find out more about our patient referral programme please contact us to receive complimentary materials for your patients and clients or to schedule a private office presentation.

Our Trichoscopically Controlled FUE is a minimally invasive technique where hair follicles are extracted individually from back of the head using specific designed tools with a diameter of less than 1mm. The hair follicles are then implanted directly into the thinning areas at an angle and density to mimic the natural hair growth pattern. Once transplanted, the hair will grow for lifetime because are genetically-resistant against baldness.
We perform the trichoscopy before the FUE hair transplant. The trichoscopy is a detailed dermoscopic examination of the hair and scalp under high power magnification with a hand-held microscope. During this evaluation:
– the existing density in different scalp regions is calculated
– the hair miniaturization in both the recipient and donor areas and hair abnormalities are analyzed
– donor capacity is measured
– frontal hairline and distribution of the hair follicles are determined
The results and findings of the trichoscopy are studied and analyzed, the images and measurements are saved and kept into an electronic file and are used evaluate growth progress, final result and future hair loss.
We guarantee to replace any non-growing hair transplant follicular units at no extra cost. We perform the trichoscopy (12 months after the procedure) to count and assess the growth of the transplanted hair. In case some follicular units will not regrow (excluding a small, normal and acceptable deviation of 5%), a complimentary FUE hair transplant will be performed.
Our Trichoscopically Controlled FUE method produces 100 % natural results and a lifetime growth. Our instruments ensure correct angle and direction of the transplanted hair follicles that match your hair growth. Depending on the degree of hair loss and donor site we can achieve very high density in the frontal part of the scalp, excellent temple angle closure and totally undetectable results.
The result of the hair transplant is permanent. The new hair will maintain the same texture, color and characteristics. So, when the hair in the donor area will become white, also the hair in the recipient area will become white.
Our Trichoscopically Controlled FUE method produces 100 % natural results and a lifetime growth. Our instruments ensure correct angle and direction of the transplanted hair follicles that match your hair growth. We achieve an excellent temple angle closure and totally undetectable natural results.
The majority of patients will notice substantial hair growth and more significantly visible coverage within 6 to 12 months after the procedure. Final results and full growth of the transplanted hair are seen at around 12 – 18 months.
Trichoscopy is a detailed dermoscopic examination of the hair and scalp. We perform the trichoscopy before the hair transplant to assess existing density, hair miniaturization in both the recipient and donor areas, hair abnormalities and donor capacity. Our comprehensive pre-surgical evaluation includes also a detailed review on your medical history and lab tests, hairline design based on your facial features, donor hair available and future hair loss.

No. Follicular Units Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive technique where hair follicles are extracted one by one from the back of the head with specific microscopic tools. In Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT or “strip” technique) a strip of donor tissue is removed from the scalp resulting in a linear scar. The FUE method leaves no permanent and noticeable scar in the donor area.
Νο. It is possible to remove up to 40% of donor hair, without causing any visible thinning. 40% corresponds to an average of about 6000-7000 hair follicles, approximately 12,000-14,000 hairs.
The FUE procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Some people say that this procedure is similar to visiting the dentist. The truth is that the mouth cavity is much more sensitive than the scalp. There is no pain during the procedure, only some discomfort when we administer the local anesthesia to the donor and recipient areas.
The treatment lasts between 4-7 hours depending on how many grafts are transplanted. If you have advanced pattern of hair loss, sufficient donor area or require dense packing, we can continue with a second day of treatment. This option is suitable if you would like to complete the hair transplant procedure in a single session rather than multiple sessions and achieve the desired result in a shorter amount of time.
The FUE procedure does not require any hospitalization or overnight stays. You will be ready to leave the clinic shortly after the hair transplant.
Both donor and recipient areas heal within 5-7 days. You can expect to see crusting and scabbing around the treated area after the session for 7 to 10 days and some redness that resembles a sunburn. You will be able to resume your normal daily activities almost immediately.
Upon completion of the procedure, the team provides you with post-operative instructions, and medications. A saline water spray will be provided to you as well. you can wash the donor area the following day and from the 3rd day you can wash all your hair gently. Everyday shampooing is required to keep your hair and scalp clean and helps with the healing process and hair growth.
No. You will be able to treat the new hair normally as you did up until now, meaning that you will be able to wash it, brush it, dye it and style it as you wish.
Please fill out the form and we will contact you as soon as possible.
