The people

The team in the room on surgery day

One surgeon, one long-tenured technical team, and the coordinators who carry your case through the first year.

Clinic team

Dr. Steven C. Chang

Dr. Steven C. Chang

Founder & Hair Restoration Surgeon

M.D. · 30+ years exclusively in hair restoration · 10 ISHRS annual meeting presentations

Dr. Chang has practised hair restoration and nothing else for more than three decades. His work on donor closure and graft survival became the FUT 2.0 technique and the HUMS healing protocol used at the clinic, and he has presented on density planning, painless anaesthesia and advanced harvesting at ten annual meetings of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery.

He performs every surgery personally, from donor harvest through the final placed graft.
The Surgical Team

The Surgical Team

Graft Technicians & Scrub Staff

Average tenure over a decade

Graft survival is decided in the hours between harvest and placement, and that work belongs to the technical team: dissecting under stereo microscopes, sorting by follicular grouping, and keeping tissue cool and hydrated throughout. The same long-tenured team works every case.

Consultation & Aftercare

Newport Beach clinic

The coordinators handle scheduling, pre-operative instructions, financing paperwork and the follow-up calendar through the first year. They are the people you reach when something comes up at week two and you want an answer that day.

Why the technical team matters as much as the surgeon

A graft that is bruised in dissection, left dry on a tray, or placed at the wrong depth will not grow no matter how good the plan was. Between harvest and placement, survival is in the hands of the technicians.

That is why the same team works every case here, under stereo microscopes, with tissue kept cool and hydrated from the moment it leaves the donor area until it is seated in its new site.
