Your Hair Journey
Learn what you can do to restore your hair and your confidence.
Hair restoration is a journey, and getting off to the right start with the right doctor is
most important.

- Identify hair loss area
Over 70% of men suffer from some sort of hair loss by the age of 50. For women, 50% will suffer from hair loss by the age of 60. Since then, hair loss can affect your confidence, relationships and self-esteem.
Thanks to hair transplants, you have a medically proven treatment to solve it permanently. The earlier you take action, the more hair you keep and the sooner you get your confidence back.
- Finding the right doctorInformation about causes of hair loss and treatments are extensively available, and there are many options including low-cost surgeries performed by non-medical personnel. Any clinic that appears to offer competitive price is highly likely to use non-medical personnel performing the surgery, non-approved instruments, compromise on survival rates of your follicles or safety protocols.
What sets us apart is that you always meet with Dr Young for your pre-surgery consultation and post surgery follow up appointments, not sales team or consultant. - ConsultationWhen you contact us at Young Hair Restoration Clinic, it is understandable that you will have many questions, and perhaps feel uncomfortable speaking about your hair loss.
Hair Loss is a medical condition, hence the importance of seeing a doctor to firstly diagnose your condition, then formulate a plan for management lifelong.
As the first step, you will have a private one-to-one consultation with our head doctor - Dr Young – both options of video call or clinic visit are available. The consultation usually takes 30-45 mins and is highly educational and collaborative.
During consultation, your medical and hair loss history, physical wellbeing, goals and expectations will be discussed. Following a diagnostic assessment of your area of concern, Dr Young will examine your scalp with a Dermatoscope, he will then come up with a plan for the best course of action for your recommended procedure and discuss results you can expect. Your pre operative plan and photos here also form part of your medical records.
If you have any medical condition eg. Diabetes, we will assess and work together with your Endocrinologist. This is the importance of seeing a doctor for your consultation.
The consultation fee is $200 and is redeemable towards a Hair Restoration procedure. - Surgery
When we have agreed a surgery date that suits your schedule, you will receive a phone call one day prior to your procedure from one of our friendly team to go over what to expect on the day. Please note, in most cases hair transplant surgery is a full day procedure, and you will be expected to arrive at the clinic at 8am unless agreed otherwise.
You’ll be greeted by Dr Young who will explain your procedure to you, and go through risks and consent forms in detail.
As you will be in the Procedure Room for a while we make sure you have music and TV entertainment to your taste so you can immediately feel relaxed and distracted.
To find out what happens on the day in detail, please visit My Surgery Day.
All FUE surgeries are carried out at our Darlinghurst clinic personally by Dr Young. On the day of the treatment, you can be sure you are in good hands.
This all forms part of the continuity of care with Dr Young. - Post surgery & Aftercare
Dr. Young prides himself on his reputation for providing exceptional aftercare – not just in the days or months after your operation, but for years afterwards.
We urge you to attend regular follow-ups with Dr Young over the next 12 months of your procedure so that we can carefully observe your hair growth progress.
We see our patients as lifelong recipients of our hair care service.

About Dr Young
Dr Wayne YoungHair Restoration Doctor, Sydney Dr Wayne Young is the Founder and Head Physician of Young Hair Restoration in Sydney. He focuses on doctor-performed FUE hair transplantation, including refined hairline work, total unshaven hair restoration, and carefully planned long-term treatment strategies. Every patient is assessed by Dr Young personally, and every procedure is performed by him from start to finish. At Young Hair, the focus is not simply on moving grafts. It is on careful assessment, age-appropriate design, donor planning, and creating results that look natural not just immediately after surgery, but over time. Dr Young believes hair restoration should be thoughtful, personalised, and performed with direct medical accountability throughout the entire process. Why Patients Choose Dr Young 100% doctor performed All procedures are performed entirely by Dr Young. He believes it is inherent to the role of a doctor to apply years of surgical training and clinical judgment directly to the patient, rather than delegating the essential parts of treatment. Personal continuity of care Dr Young sees every patient personally for in-clinic pre-operative and post-operative consultations. This continuity allows for a more consistent, complete, and closely supervised approach to hair restoration. Long-term planning Hair restoration should never be reduced to a simple graft number. Dr Young places strong emphasis on donor management, future-proofing, and planning for long-term natural outcomes. Refined, individualised treatment Every patient presents differently. Hair characteristics, donor capacity, age, pattern of loss, goals, and long-term risk all need to be considered carefully before a treatment plan is made. Dr Young’s Background Born in South Africa, Dr Young first gained exposure to plastic surgery in 1989 while working in a clinical setting. He completed medical school at the University of Witwatersrand and undertook plastic surgery terms at Johannesburg General Hospital and Concord Hospital in Sydney. He later moved to London to continue his surgical training, working in the surgical departments of The Royal Free and The Royal Marsden. On returning to Sydney, he trained extensively in general surgery for four years and then in plastic surgery for five years, working alongside many of Sydney’s respected plastic surgeons across major teaching hospitals including St Vincent’s, Westmead, Prince of Wales Hospital, and Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. This foundation in surgery and aesthetics informs the way Dr Young approaches hair restoration today: with precision, judgement, design awareness, and respect for long-term naturalness. Hair Restoration Focus Since 2014, Dr Young has been dedicated to hair restoration and has performed more than 2,500 procedures. He has trained in FUE techniques internationally, including in India, Greece, and Bangkok. His approach draws on both surgical experience and an aesthetic eye. In hair restoration, technical ability matters, but so do restraint, planning, and design. A well-executed procedure should look refined, age-appropriate, and believable, while preserving the donor area for the future. Dr Young’s work is particularly relevant for patients who value:
Practice Philosophy Dr Young believes that good hair restoration is built on five principles: 1. Proper medical assessment A good plan starts with understanding the patient properly, not just reviewing photos. 2. Direct doctor involvement Consultation, planning, design, surgery, and follow-up should be medically led. 3. Long-term donor stewardship Donor hair is finite and should be used strategically. 4. Natural design Hairline and density planning should be appropriate for the individual and remain believable over time. 5. Continuity and accountability The doctor responsible for the plan should also be responsible for carrying it through. Training, Memberships, and Ongoing Education Ongoing education in aesthetic medicine, plastic surgery, and hair restoration remains central to Dr Young’s work. The continuing refinement of technique, judgement, and patient care is fundamental to achieving high-quality outcomes. Memberships (past and present)
Selected conferences attended
Areas of Focus and Innovation Dr Young continues to refine his practice with a strong focus on careful planning, evolving technique, and patient-centred treatment design. Areas highlighted on the current practice page include:
These areas reflect a broader philosophy: hair restoration should not only address current concerns, but should also support a patient’s long-term appearance and options. A More Complete Approach to Hair Restoration At Young Hair, the goal is not template treatment. It is complete care. That means looking at the whole picture:
For many patients, this level of planning is just as important as the procedure itself.

Hair loss happens when the cycle of hair growth is disturbed, resulting in the hair shedding quicker than anticipated, not growing as expected, or not growing back at all. The most typical cause of hair loss is genetic male and female pattern baldness. However, the following conditions can cause hair loss in men and women:
- Medical conditions, that include thyroid issues and anemia
- Medication that affects hair growth
- Stress
- Excessive strain on the hair scalp by certain hairstyles
- Hair-pulling habit in which there is an irresistible impulse to pull out hair (trichotillomania)
- Immune system dysfunction where patchy hair loss (alopecia areata)
Hair loss is more typical in men because androgenic alopecia - the most common form of hair loss is associated with a testosterone by-product called dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Men have far more testosterone than women, hence they are much more likely to be impacted by this.
Medically speaking, alopecia occurs when enzymes in the body transform testosterone into DHT. And since testosterone is a male hormone, women are not as dramatically affected by this conversion as men.
Once the body is pulsing with DHT, the hair follicles are at risk. That’s because the main job of this by-product of testosterone is to strike hair follicles by shrinking them. This makes it difficult to grow hair and makes it hard for follicles to function.

All hair transplant procedures are completely performed by Dr Young.
More to it, unlike other hair transplant clinics, where your pre-surgery consultation is held with sales consultants, at Young Hair you always meet with Dr Young himself.
Why it is important? Consultants might have a different idea of how many hairs/grafts a doctor might be able to achieve on the day, which they will quote you on and what will result in your surgery investment. in addition this will not allow continuity of care.
One of our patients recently recounted his procedure at another clinic-
" I was seen by the consultant and he drew some hairline that was quite conservative, but when I went to the clinic on the day of the procedure, he wasn't there, and the technician then drew something much more aggressive, and then made it even more lower than I wanted. " This patient has requested a full correction of his hairline that this "other" clinic created.
(It is also part of Medical Board Guidelines (1/7/2023) whereby the first cosmetic consultation must be done by the doctor performing the procedure)
On the day of your procedure, the doctor will see your donor area for the first time, meaning if the doctor foresees any issues achieving quotes results, you will only be advised of this right before the operation. In the case of some clinics there are FIFO workers who will attend to you for your booked surgery, and this is the first time you meet them.
All post-procedure appointments are also held with Dr. Young. In most clinics, you will meet with a consultant, who wasn’t present during your surgery. But not at Young Hair – where you will always be consulted by Dr. Young himself to receive consistency in the treatment plan.
You will be invited to come in for follow-up appointments at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months.
All procedures are performed at our clinic in Darlinghurst. It is a purpose built clinic and you can expect a calming and private space.
“Please note that some local clinics, including those in Türkiye, advertise themselves as ‘doctor-led’—but what does that really mean? At Young Hair, we don’t use this vague term, because everything is personally performed by Dr Young.”
These clinics that are Doctor led are essentially an advertisement in limited care, or non at all, with a doctor who is charading in a false knowledge of hair restoration, as they cannot do the procedure, nor fully understand it.

The hair comes from the back of the patient’s scalp where hair usually grows for life. This is typically at the back of the head. This is called the Safe Donor Area.
This area is a non renewable resource- hence the preservation and appropriate use of these follicles must be considered.
Body Hair transplants can also be performed, see our Podcast.
Other harvesting areas are Beard, chest and abdomen.
FUE is a no-scalpel procedure that transplants hair follicles into the area of concern to increase the hair density under local anaesthesia.

FUE is a no-scalpel procedure that transplants hair follicles into the area of concern to increase the hair density under local anaesthesia.
Here is what happens on the day:
- The donor is prepared by shaving the area to keep the hairs 2-3mm long.
- Hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area of the hair using cutting-edge instruments. The most important is the punch that rotates, oscillates, and has an adjustable depth, allowing Dr. Young to set exact extraction depth to suit the follicles and the scalp. This reduces the possibility of any injury to the healthy hairs.
- The donor area is usually the back of the head, where the hair is not affected by hair loss. Dr. Young will consider the number of hairs required and the density of follicles in the donor area against each when deciding how many follicles should be extracted and implanted. This is to prevent over-harvesting from the donor area.
- The follicles will then be prepared for implantation. They are separated into groups of hairs, sorted and placed in an active plasma solution that assures the health of the extracted hair follicle.
- The extracted hair follicles are placed into the area of concern. The implantation is done very carefully to correspond with the direction of the growth of your existing hair to restore a natural-looking hairline, so that it is undetectable if you even had a hair transplant.
The part of the procedure where you will feel the most pain is the numbing injections. It takes up to 10 minutes to administer and Dr. Young will use a vibrating device to the area being injected to help to reduce the discomfort. The administration will need to be repeated after 2 or 3 hours, but we aim to do so while the scalp is still numb so that the injections are not uncomfortable.
It is not uncommon to feel slight discomfort during the extraction and implantation of the hair, however, it is manageable. Your safety is our priority, so the exact safe dose must be calculated and adhered to on your surgery day.

After your procedure, when you are about to go home (note, this procedure does not require an overnight stay) we will provide you with everything you require to take care of your new hair in the first few weeks, including comprehensive 30 days instructions for washing your hair, your hair stray and prescription for medication to manage any discomfort.
Patients are advised to wait 5 days after the procedure before undertaking a hair wash. By around day 14 the patient’s head should be scab free.
What stands us apart from other hair restoration clinics that we see our patients as lifelong partners of our hair care services. You’ll be able to stay in contact with us for ongoing support and help making sure your hair growth progress continues as expected.
You will be invited to come in for follow-up appointments at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. You will always be able to contact Dr. Young for advice.
When can I fly after my hair transplant? We would advise from day 3 onwards.

We do not have templated package prices.
This is a fully bespoke procedure, we do not offer "one size fits all" hair transplants
When comparing costs, please always inquire who will be performing your whole procedure, as most clinics that might appear to offer competitive pricing will use non-medical personnel to perform your surgery.

Total Unshaven and Corrective procedures are premium procedures.

TrichoTest™ is a genetic test for hair loss that analyses gene variations and lifestyle factors so that personalised hair loss treatments can be accurately recommended.
Studies show there is a relationship between your genetic profile and how your hair loss responds to different types of treatment.
This means not all hair loss treatments work for everybody and the success of any given treatment is dependent on your genetic profile and lifestyle factors.
Thanks to the unique analysis performed by TrichoTest™ Dr Young can identify which hair loss treatments are most likely to provide the best results for you.
Further, the report provides scientific information by the Medical Director at GX Sciences to assist Dr. Young in creating a treatment plan that is right for you.
Note, not all patients will require to undergo TrichoTest.
