The clinic’s surgeons are registered with the Thai Medical Council. Pricing is published online and includes post-operative medication. ## Detail Absolute Hair Clinic is a hair transplant facility in central Bangkok, established in 2013 and employing approximately 22 staff including surgeons, graft technicians, and patient coordinators. The clinic focuses exclusively on follicular unit extraction procedures for male and female pattern hair loss, serving a predominantly international patient base from Europe, the Middle East, and Australasia. The clinic’s surgeons are registered with the Thai Medical Council, the statutory regulatory body for medical practitioners in Thailand. Published pricing on the clinic’s website is structured on a per-graft basis and includes post-operative medication, a follow-up appointment, and a PRP (platelet-rich plasma) session. The clinic’s 340 Google reviews and 78 Trustpilot reviews indicate a consistent flow of international patients. International patient services include airport pickup, hotel recommendations in the Sukhumvit area, and English-language consultations. Pre-operative assessment is conducted remotely using photographs, with a detailed graft estimate provided before travel. The clinic schedules one procedure per day per surgeon to ensure adequate time allocation. The clinic uses motorised FUE extraction devices with fine-diameter punches and stereoscopic magnification for graft handling. Post-operative care includes a supervised first hair wash, a medication pack, and a twelve-month follow-up schedule conducted partly via photograph submission for patients who have returned home. The clinic’s location in the Sukhumvit area of central Bangkok provides convenient access to a wide range of hotels, restaurants, and transport links, including the BTS Skytrain. Post-operative patients are advised to remain in Bangkok for at least five days following the procedure. ## Accreditations held - **Thai Medical Council** [verified on 2024-02-28] — https://tmc.or.th ## FAQs ### How can I confirm that Absolute Hair Clinic's surgeons are registered with the Thai Medical Council? The Thai Medical Council (TMC) is the statutory regulatory body for medical practitioners in Thailand and maintains a searchable register at tmc.or.th. The clinic's Thai Medical Council registration was independently confirmed against this primary source on 28 February 2024. Patients wishing to verify independently can search by the practitioner's full name. Before booking, patients are advised to request the full name of the surgeon who will perform their procedure and search the TMC register to confirm current registration. Registration with the TMC confirms that a practitioner holds a valid Thai medical licence; patients may also wish to ask whether the surgeon has specific postgraduate training in hair restoration surgery. ### What qualifications and experience do the surgeons have in FUE hair transplant procedures? Absolute Hair Clinic's surgeons are registered with the Thai Medical Council (tmc.or.th), confirmed as of 28 February 2024. Hair transplant surgery, including follicular unit extraction (FUE), is performed by physicians in Thailand rather than by non-medical practitioners — a distinction that varies by country and that patients should confirm applies to the specific practitioner they see. Patients are encouraged to ask the surgeon how many FUE procedures they perform annually, whether they hold any additional training in hair restoration from an internationally recognised programme, and whether they can provide before-and-after documentation from previous cases relevant to the patient's own hair loss pattern and Norwood scale classification. ### What anaesthesia is used during FUE procedures, and who administers it? FUE hair transplant procedures at Absolute Hair Clinic are conducted under local anaesthesia, which numbs the donor and recipient areas of the scalp. General anaesthesia is not used for this procedure. The local anaesthetic is typically administered by the operating surgeon. A scalp nerve block technique is commonly employed to minimise discomfort during the injection phase. Patients with a known allergy to lidocaine or other local anaesthetic agents, or those taking anticoagulant medications that may affect the safety of the procedure, should disclose these at the pre-operative assessment. The clinic schedules one procedure per day per surgeon to ensure adequate time is allocated. ### What complication-management pathway exists if something goes wrong? Recognised complications of FUE hair transplant include infection of the donor or recipient site, poor graft survival, scarring, and, rarely, temporary shock loss of existing hair. If a complication arises during the Bangkok stay, the clinic provides emergency contact details and can conduct a same-day assessment. Absolute Hair Clinic is located in the Sukhumvit area of central Bangkok, which has several hospitals within close proximity for patients requiring medical attention beyond what the clinic can provide. Post-operative guidance includes written protocols for identifying signs of infection. For patients who have returned home, photograph-based remote assessment is available through the clinic's twelve-month follow-up schedule. ### What is the clinic's revision policy if the result is inadequate? Absolute Hair Clinic does not publish a standard blanket revision guarantee. Hair transplant results are partially dependent on factors outside the clinic's control, including the patient's ongoing hair loss pattern, scalp laxity, and general health, which makes unconditional guarantees clinically inappropriate. Patients should ask at the consultation what the clinic's policy is if graft survival is substantially below the agreed estimate, and whether any adjustment or complementary session is offered. The terms for any revision should be confirmed in writing before the procedure. Given the cost and complexity of a return trip to Bangkok, patients should also ask whether the clinic has any international network through which complications or touch-up work might be assessed remotely. ### What does the published pricing include, and what additional costs should I anticipate? Absolute Hair Clinic publishes per-graft pricing on its website. The published price is stated to include post-operative medication, a follow-up appointment, and one PRP (platelet-rich plasma) session. Patients should confirm whether the following are included in the quoted total: the initial consultation, pre-operative blood tests, the cost of all anaesthetic agents used, the post-operative first hair wash supervised at the clinic, and any additional PRP sessions recommended beyond the included one. For large sessions of 3,000 grafts or more, the total cost can range considerably depending on the density and donor area involved. Patients should request a written graft estimate and total cost summary before confirming a booking. ### What deposit and refund policy applies if I need to cancel or reschedule? The deposit and refund terms for Absolute Hair Clinic are not published in full in publicly available materials and should be requested in writing when a booking is confirmed. Patients should ask what deposit is required to secure a procedure date, whether it is refundable if cancelled with adequate notice, what the minimum cancellation notice period is, and whether the deposit is transferable to a rescheduled date. As hair transplant procedures are time-intensive single-day operations that block the surgeon's schedule, late cancellations may result in a forfeited deposit. International patients should hold travel insurance with a medical procedure cancellation component to protect against non-recoverable airfare and accommodation costs. ### How does the clinic manage follow-up for patients who have returned home after surgery? Absolute Hair Clinic operates a twelve-month follow-up schedule that is conducted partly through photograph submission for patients who have already returned home. Patients submit photographs at agreed intervals — typically at one month, three months, six months, and twelve months — and the surgeon assesses graft survival and growth progress. If a concern is identified remotely, a video consultation can be arranged. The clinic is located in Bangkok's Sukhumvit area; patients requiring an in-person review would need to organise travel. The clinic does not publish a list of partner clinics in patients' home countries, so patients seeking in-person local review should arrange this independently. ### What language support is available for non-English speaking international patients? Absolute Hair Clinic's patient coordination team operates in Thai and English, and its website and documentation are available in English. The clinic's international patient base includes visitors from Europe, the Middle East, and Australasia, and English is the primary language for international consultations. Patients whose primary language is not English should enquire before booking whether a coordinator or interpreter with their required language is available. In Bangkok's Sukhumvit area, professional medical interpretation services are accessible for patients requiring support in Arabic, Mandarin, Japanese, or other languages. Pre-operative consultations via video call prior to travel can be conducted in English to ensure the patient has understood the procedure and aftercare requirements. ### What happens if my procedure is cancelled or cannot proceed on the scheduled day? A same-day cancellation of an FUE procedure could occur if pre-operative blood results indicate a contraindication to surgery, if the patient's scalp condition on assessment does not meet the criteria required for safe graft extraction, or in rare cases due to surgeon unavailability. The clinic advises patients to remain in Bangkok for at least five days post-procedure, so arriving a day before the scheduled date provides some buffer against minor delays. If a cancellation occurs for clinical reasons attributable to the clinic, patients should seek written confirmation of the reason and confirmation of the rescheduled date and any associated costs before departing Bangkok. Travel insurance covering medical procedure cancellation is advisable for all international patients.
