Min-Sheng General Hospital and Korean University to cooperate on hair transplantation technology.

Min-Sheng General hospital has entered a cooperation agreement with the Hair Transplantation Center of Kyungpook National University Hospital in Korea, to work on developing new cosmetic techniques to address baldness. A team of platic surgeons from Min-Sheng Hospital, lead by the director of the International Healthcare Department Dr. Chen Shing-Han, traveled to Daegu in Korea where they met with Dr. Kim Moonkyu the head of the Hair transplantation Center who has developed new tools to transplant hair follicles.



Plastic surgeons at Min-Sheng have been trained to use these tools and are proficient in the latest hair transplantation techniques. Cosmetic surgery is gaining acceptance among men in far eastern countries, and male patients are increasingly turning to surgical hair implantation to reverse baldness. These procedures normally involve taking a strip of scalp at the base of the hair line, separate the follicles, and implant them in the chosen areas. The whole process is routinely completed in a few hours, and performed under local anesthesia.
