Hairline Correction in Korea: Dr. Jae Hyun Park & DANA Plastic Surgery
When people think about hair restoration,
they often focus on coverage or density. But a well-designed hairline — its shape, contour, angle, and side profile — is what determines whether the result looks natural or artificial.
No surgeon in the world has studied this in
more depth than Dr. Jae Hyun Park, Chief Medical Director of DANA
Plastic Surgery in Seoul, South Korea.
With five world-first published techniques,
the most hairline correction papers of any surgeon globally, and the 2022 ISHRS
Platinum Follicle Award to his name, Dr. Park is widely recognized as the
definitive authority in hairline correction surgery.

2022 ISHRS Platinum Follicle Award — The Highest Honor in Hair Restoration
At its 30th World Congress held
in Panama City in October 2022, the International Society of Hair Restoration
Surgery (ISHRS) presented Dr. Park with the Platinum Follicle Award — the organization's most prestigious recognition for outstanding
achievement in research, innovation, or technique advancement.
The official ISHRS citation acknowledged:
- 18+ years of experience in hair restoration surgery
- A prolific publication record spanning plastic surgery and
dermatologic surgery journals
- Contributions to female hairline correction, non-shaven
FUE, long-hair FUE, scalp micropigmentation,
and graft survival
- Consistent presentations at ISHRS World Congresses sharing the
latest advances
"His publications have contributed
to improving knowledge in the correction and design of female hairlines,
non-shaven follicular unit excision (FUE), long-hair FUE, scalp
micropigmentation, scalp laxity, and graft survival." — ISHRS Official Award Citation, 2022
In 2025, Dr. Park and the DANA team
continued their award-winning streak by receiving both the Best
Presentation Award and Excellence Award at the
International Congress of KSHRS.
5 World-First Contributions to Hairline
Correction Surgery
What truly separates Dr. Park from other
hair restoration surgeons is a body of research that no one had
published before him. Each of the following techniques was defined,
studied, and presented to the international medical community for the very
first time by Dr. Park.
1. Hairline Revision Surgery — World First
Dr. Park was the first surgeon to formally
define and publish a methodology for correcting unsatisfactory hairline
surgery results. Today, his revision protocols form the clinical foundation
used by surgeons worldwide when managing failed or aesthetically poor hairline
procedures.
2. Posterior Cheekbone Coverage Surgery — World First
This innovative technique uses a redesigned
lateral hairline to visually reduce the appearance of prominent
cheekbones, creating a softer and more proportionate facial frame.
Published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal (ASJ), it remains one of
the most requested procedures at DANA.
3. Temple Hairline Correction — World First
Dr. Park was the first to systematically
classify, design, and describe the surgical technique for correcting
the temple hairline — a delicate zone that
requires precise placement of fine-caliber hair grafts. Published in Annals
of Plastic Surgery (APS).
4. Lateral Hairline Correction — World First
The lateral hairline — the line running from the M-shape frontal area through the temples
and into the sideburns — had never been formally
studied as a standalone surgical target. Dr. Park defined its anatomy,
classification, and correction method, and published the world's first
dedicated paper in an international plastic surgery journal.
5. Natural Hairline Design Method — World First
Perhaps his most foundational contribution:
Dr. Park created and published the world's first systematic methodology
for designing a natural-looking hairline based on individual facial
proportions, bone structure, gender, and age. This framework is now considered
a cornerstone reference in the field. Source:

FAQ

hairline correction surgery? A: With Long-Hair
Non-Shaven FUE, most patients return to work within 5–7
days. Full results are visible at the 12-month mark.

I had at another clinic? A: Yes. Dr. Park
pioneered hairline revision surgery and has published the only formal
methodology for correcting failed hairline procedures. DANA regularly handles
complex revision cases.

a standard hair transplant? A: Yes. Hairline
correction is a precision aesthetic procedure focused on the shape, density
