Maxim Hair Restoration in Manila is located at Centuria Medical Makati, Century City, 7th Floor – Unit 712, Gen. Luna St. Cor. Salamanca, Brgy.

The clinic is set up for privacy and efficiency, with consultation space for detailed planning and a clinical environment designed around safety, sterility, and patient comfort.

All hair transplant procedures are physician-led and performed by licensed doctors, led by Dr. John Michael Abenojar, with support from experienced nurses and senior Turkish hair technicians. The physician designs the hairline and treatment plan, evaluates donor supply, and performs the critical medical steps while supervising every stage of graft handling and placement. This matters because consistency, angle control, and graft protection directly affect the natural look of your result and the long-term survival of the follicles.

A Follicular Unit Extraction/Excision (FUE) hair transplant removes follicular units one by one, avoids a linear scar, and is often preferred by patients who keep shorter hairstyles or want minimal downtime visibility. Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) removes a thin donor strip and can produce a high graft count efficiently, which may be ideal for patients with extensive hair loss, a strong donor band, or goals that require maximum coverage in one session. During your consultation, we look at donor density, hair caliber and curl, scalp laxity, styling preferences, and long-term planning. Many advanced cases benefit from a hybrid plan that combines FUT for efficient graft yield and FUE for refined hairline detail.

Recovery depends on the method and the size of the session. After an FUE hair transplant, many patients return to light activity within 3 to 5 days, while FUT may take closer to 7 to 10 days for donor-area comfort. In the first week, mild swelling, redness, and small scabs are expected and are managed with a clear cleansing routine and simple aftercare steps. We provide detailed instructions on sleep positioning, washing, sun exposure, and what to avoid during the early healing period so your grafts anchor properly and your donor area heals cleanly.

Hair transplant growth happens in phases. It is normal for transplanted hairs to shed during the first month as the follicles reset. New growth commonly begins around months 3 to 4, with visible improvement building through months 6 to 9 and maturation continuing through 12 months. Hair caliber and density often continue to refine beyond the first year, especially in the crown. Following aftercare instructions and using supportive non-surgical therapies when recommended can help optimize scalp health and maintain native hair so your result looks fuller overall.

Graft count depends on your degree of hair loss, donor density, hair thickness, curl pattern, and your coverage priorities. Smaller hairline refinements may require around 1,500 to 2,000 grafts, while broader restoration across the front, mid-scalp, and crown may approach 3,000 to 5,000 grafts. During consultation, we map your scalp, measure donor supply, discuss styling goals, and design a plan that targets density where it is most visible while protecting donor reserves for the future. If your case requires it, we may also recommend a staged approach to keep the result natural and sustainable long term.

Yes. Maxim Manila regularly performs corrective hair transplant procedures for patients who want to improve density, symmetry, and naturalness after work done elsewhere. Repair may involve softening an overly straight or low hairline, adding density to thin zones, camouflaging FUT scars, or improving pluggy appearance with refined placement of single-hair grafts. If scalp donor is limited, body-to-scalp options may be considered for appropriate candidates. The consultation focuses on what can be realistically improved, how to protect remaining donor supply, and how to create a result that blends with your current hair and ages well.

Absolutely. Women can be excellent candidates depending on the pattern and cause of thinning. Some women benefit most from non-surgical therapies first, especially in diffuse thinning patterns, while others are strong candidates for a conservative female hair transplant focused on part-line density, temple framing, or traction-alopecia areas. Female planning prioritizes subtlety, soft hairline shape, natural direction, and density placement that looks believable in everyday styling. Your consultation includes a careful scalp evaluation to confirm candidacy and set expectations that match your goals.

Yes. Maxim Manila offers financing options through local partners, including Metrobank 0% plans where available, and international patients may also access financing through U.S.-based options depending on eligibility. Your coordinator can walk you through estimated procedure costs, what influences pricing such as graft count and technique, and what payment schedules may look like. The goal is transparency so you can make a confident decision with no surprises.
