Total years in practice: 8

Hey there! I'm Dr. Wipawan Vathananai, a hair transplant surgeon and dermatologist based in Bangkok, Thailand. You know, while hair loss might not be a life-or-death situation, it can seriously mess with your head, leading to things like depression and other mental health issues.

My journey into the world of hair transplants kicked off back in 2017 at the DHT Clinic under the wing of Dr. Pathomvanich. But as I delved deeper, I realized there's a whole lot more to hair issues than just transplants. That's why I decided to dive into dermatology at the Institute of Dermatology Thailand, to tackle those hair diseases that don't quite fit the transplant bill.

After that, I set my sights on mastering the art of FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). So, off to Spain I went for some specialized training. Fast forward to August 2023, and I was back in Thailand, ready to kickstart my career as a hair transplant surgeon.
