For years the assumption was that a great hair transplant meant a long flight to the mainland or a clinic overseas. It doesn't. Dr. Ching has been restoring hairlines here for fifteen years, which means everything happens close to home.
No mystery and no pressure. Procedures start at $10,000, with most plans falling between $10,000 and $22,000 depending on the technique and the number of grafts your hairline needs. Every procedure includes a PRP treatment and a complete hair-health regimen, with follow-up care here at home.
*Based on a 48-month PatientFi plan for a $10,000 procedure at 6.99% APR for well-qualified applicants. Actual rate and payment depend on credit approval. Your exact plan is set at your consultation.
A hair transplant is permanent. So is a bad one. The bargain quotes that look tempting online carry a real risk, and correcting a poor result costs far more, in money and in time, than getting it right the first time.
A hair transplant is only as good as the hairline behind it. Dr. Ching designs yours himself, then a dedicated team executes the meticulous work so the result looks like it was always yours.
He maps your hairline by hand to suit your face, your age, and how you'll look in twenty years, not a one-size template. This is the single decision that separates a natural result from an obvious one.
Both techniques under one roof. FUE harvests individual follicles with no linear scar; FUT can restore maximum density in a single session. Dr. Ching recommends the right one for your hair and goals, not whatever the clinic happens to sell.
Dr. Ching's hand is on the parts that decide the result, the design and the harvest, while a trained team handles the careful placement. You get a surgeon's judgment and a full team's precision.
No pluggy rows, no obvious work. Just a fuller, natural hairline that fills in over the months that follow and looks like your own hair, because it is.
A few examples of Dr. Ching's work. Your consultation includes a fuller gallery matched to your type of hair loss.

Dr. Ching examines your hair loss, listens to your goals, and gives you an honest read on whether a transplant is right for you. You leave with a clear plan, transparent pricing, and financing options.
Dr. Ching maps the hairline and the plan for density by hand, built around your face and how it should age. Nothing is templated.
Typically a single day under local anesthesia, comfortable throughout. The harvest and placement run efficiently with the team, and you go home the same day.
Most patients are back to everyday life within a few days. You'll have detailed aftercare and direct access to our team, here in town.
Transplanted hair sheds, then grows back over the following months. Most patients see their full result around the one-year mark, refined with in-person follow-ups along the way.
A board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Asia Pacific Aesthetics in Honolulu, Dr. Ching trained across North America, Europe, South America, and Asia. He has published in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal and has spent fifteen years restoring hairlines for patients throughout Hawaii. He is recognized internationally for natural, refined results and the kind of artistry that makes surgical work look like none was done at all.
Most people with stable hair loss and healthy donor hair are candidates, whether you're early in a receding hairline or further along. The only way to know for sure is an exam. Dr. Ching will tell you honestly if a transplant is right for you, or if another approach makes more sense for now.
That's the whole point. The old "pluggy" look came from poor hairline design and crude placement. Dr. Ching designs your hairline by hand and uses techniques that follow your hair's natural angle and pattern, so the result reads as your own hair, because it is.
It depends on your hair, your donor area, and how much coverage you want. FUE leaves no linear scar and suits shorter styles; FUT can deliver maximum density in one session. Dr. Ching offers both and recommends the right fit at your consultation rather than defaulting to one.
Most patients return to everyday life within a few days. There may be some redness or minor swelling early on, which settles quickly. You'll get clear aftercare instructions and our team is right here in town if you have any questions.
Transplanted hair is taken from areas resistant to balding, so it typically keeps growing for life. Dr. Ching also plans for how your hair may continue to change over time, so your result still looks right years down the road.
Procedures start at $10,000, and most plans run between $10,000 and $22,000 depending on the technique and how many grafts your hairline needs. Every procedure includes PRP and a full hair-health regimen. We finance through PatientFi with manageable monthly plans, and your $250 consultation is applied in full to your procedure. You'll leave your visit with a clear, all-inclusive quote, no surprises.
You can always find a lower number online. But a transplant is permanent, and a poor result is expensive and difficult to correct. Here the work is led by a board-certified plastic surgeon you meet in person, your follow-up and any touch-up happen at home rather than on another long flight, and you are cared for over the year it takes your hair to grow in. The lowest quote and the best outcome are rarely the same thing.
A private consultation with Dr. Ching is the first step. We'll assess your hair loss, design an approach, and give you honest answers and clear pricing. PatientFi financing is available, and your $250 consultation is applied to your procedure.
