Dr. Bahk

One·Motion Clinic

South Korea

Background

Motion Clinic, where Dr. Bahk practices, is located in Seocho-gu in Seoul's Gangnam district and states it has focused exclusively on FUE hair transplants since its founding in 2003 1. The clinic's own contact page names a different physician, Dr. Sung, as "the Head Doctor for Motion Clinic" 1. Dr. Bahk is named individually only in a client testimonial thanking him and his staff for their care during a hair transplant, which does not clarify his role or standing relative to that title 1. The clinic states it is licensed by the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare to treat foreign patients, a certification that covers the practice as a whole rather than any one physician 1.

Procedures and techniques

Per the clinic, its doctors perform anesthesia, extraction, and recipient-site incisions, with nurses placing grafts under the doctor's direction afterward 1. Motion Clinic says it allocates single-hair grafts to the frontal hairline for a natural look and multi-hair grafts to the inner scalp for volume, targeting density up to 55-65 grafts per square centimeter 1. It describes extraction punches ranging from 0.65mm to 1.25mm and implant and incision kits from 0.65mm to 1.5mm, with tools selected by ethnicity and gender 1. The clinic also offers non-shave FUE alongside standard shaved FUE, with a stated daily capacity of 5,000 shaved or 3,000 non-shaved grafts 1. It says it avoids over-harvesting the donor area and does not dice or split grafts, extracting and implanting a matched count 1.

Pricing

Motion Clinic prices FUE per graft: 5,500 KRW for shaving FUE and 7,700 KRW for non-shaving FUE, noting that seasonal promotions may apply 1. A free online consultation, including a hairline design mockup on the client's own submitted photo, precedes booking 1.

Booking and aftercare

The clinic says overseas patients from North America and Europe typically stay in Seoul 5 to 10 days, and those from South East and Mid Asia or Oceania 5 to 7 days, with grafts anchored by day 5 and scabs removable by day 10 1. It provides free hair washes during the stay, excluding Sundays and holidays 1. Once patients return home, it describes ongoing multilingual contact, progress monitoring, and free touch-ups under warranty 1. Motion Clinic targets a 95% survival rate and gives a written guarantee of a free repeat procedure if survival falls below 90 percent within a year 1.
