clinic Dr Diogo Coimbra (Transplante Capilar)

The Dr. Diogo Coimbra clinic is a private single-specialty center in Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. It focuses exclusively on hair restoration and medical hair-loss treatments. The clinic provides surgical and non-surgical solutions for men and women at various stages of baldness.

Patient Statistics and Accreditations

The clinic has extensive experience in hair restoration with a focus on long-term results. It holds certifications from TEMOS and the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery (SBCP). Key clinical data includes:

• Over 15 years of surgical experience in hair restoration
• More than 3,000 successfully transplanted patients
• Specialization in FUE and FUT surgical techniques

All surgical plans match the patient's natural hair direction and angulation.

Hair Restoration and Aesthetic Surgery

The clinic performs Transplante Capilar using several surgical methods for androgenetic alopecia. Specialists use the FUE technique with micro-circular incisions between 0.8 mm and 1.0 mm. This minimizes scarring. For patients needing higher graft yields, the Giga Sessão combines FUT and FUE methods in one session.

Aesthetic restoration is also available for facial hair and eyebrows:

• Beard Transplantation: Covers the mustache, goatee, cheeks, and sideburns.
• Eyebrow Transplantation: Uses high-power microscopes to obtain fine grafts for natural density.
• Mustache Restoration: Typically requires 350–500 grafts for full coverage.
• Goatee Restoration: Often involves 600–700 grafts to achieve the desired density.

Patients go home the same day and return to work quickly.

Medical and Conservative Treatments

For patients not yet ready for surgery, the clinic offers medical management to slow hair loss. Medicamentous treatment uses oral and topical medications to slow baldness progression. Most patients see visible results within four to six months of continuous use.

Non-surgical support options include:

• Laser Capilar: Uses low-level laser therapy (LLLT) to stimulate growth-related activity.
• Microinfusão Capilar: Delivers medication via micro-needling at a precise 0.5 mm depth.
• Low-Level Laser Therapy: Reduces inflammation and supports healing.

Dr. Diogo Coimbra leads the medical direction. He specializes in General and Plastic Surgery. He is a member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and the Brazilian Association of Plastic Surgeons (BAPS).

Specialized Equipment and Technologies

The clinic uses mechanical and robotic technologies to improve graft precision. The ARTAS system enables robot-assisted FUE, automating follicular unit extraction for consistent results. This preserves the donor area while maximizing viable grafts for implantation.

For non-surgical procedures, a dedicated micro-needling device delivers medications to the correct tissue depth. High-resolution microscopes are used during graft preparation to keep follicles healthy before transplantation.

Services for International Patients

The clinic welcomes international patients seeking hair restoration in Brazil. Support is available in multiple languages:

• English
• Spanish
• Portuguese

Bookimed assistance helps coordinate travel logistics. Patients receive individualized consultations to assess donor area suitability before traveling for advanced procedures like the Giga Sessão.
