What is hair loss

Hair loss is a state where hair is absent in areas where hair should normally exist, typically meaning the loss of terminal hairs (thick, dark hairs) from the scalp1.

Koreans have approximately 50,000–70,000 hairs, and losing about 50–70 hairs per day is normal. However, losing more than 100 hairs per day likely indicates a pathological cause and requires specialist consultation.

The ideal solution for fuller hair. Count matters — but thickness matters more.

Dr. Seongsoo Park · Chief Director, Bong Bong Plastic Surgery Clinic

Why hair becomes thinner

When hair thins, hair loss feels much more advanced in specific areas. Both hair count and thickness require management.

Hair becomes thinner because scalp circulation is not smooth, resulting in insufficient nutrient delivery to scalp and hair.

When scalp keratin and sebum clog pores, thick and healthy hair cannot grow through narrowed pores — hair thins as a result. Count matters, but thickness matters more.

Bong Bong's direct hair-follicle treatment

Bong Bong Plastic Surgery's hair loss prevention & scalp care directly treats hair follicles deep beneath the skin2. Because scalp surface care alone cannot deliver nutrients and active ingredients to the follicles, follicle-level direct care is essential for healthy, thick hair.

The 3 pillars of scalp care

Circulation · Pore cleanliness · Nutrient supply — these three pillars must move together for healthy hair. Improving only one produces limited results.

BB Hair Ampoule and high-tech equipment

Bong Bong's proprietary BB Hair Ampoule is delivered via low-pain high-tech equipment rather than syringes3. With less needle burden, procedure burden is low and recovery is fast — the key features.

Closing thoughts

Hair loss prevention & scalp care is a treatment that works best when started early. Starting after hair loss has progressed takes longer to recover, but intervening at the thinning stage lets you preserve both thickness and count. If you have questions about scalp care, start with an accurate diagnosis.
