CALL US INSTEADNewmarket, Auckland · New Zealand
Gro Clinics Auckland is a doctor-led clinic in Newmarket offering prescription haircare, regenerative treatment and FUE hair transplants. Which of those is right for you depends on how much of your hair is still active, and that is what the first conversation is for. If a transplant is the answer, your MCNZ-registered doctor confirms the plan with you and performs the procedure personally.
Performed at Gro Clinics Auckland, not the network.
Over a decade of care. Your case isn't new to us.
Dr Leo Chong, two presentations, October 2026.
We don't disappear after the day.
Not everyone needs a procedure. Which of these is right depends on how much of your hair is still active, which is what the first conversation is for.
01 Still active
Prescription-only hair loss medication, assessed and prescribed by a doctor after a consultation. It thickens and strengthens hair that is still active, so it works best when hair loss is caught early. It cannot bring back a follicle that has already died.
02 Thinning
Non-surgical hair loss treatment including growth factor therapy, intended to improve scalp health and give follicles a better environment to grow. Often used alongside medication, or while you decide whether a procedure is right for you.
03 Already gone
FUE hair transplants for areas where follicles have already gone, performed by your treating doctor rather than a technician. Suitable for receding hairlines, thinning at the crown and pattern hair loss in men and women, where your donor area supports it.
Hair loss is gradual, which is exactly what makes it hard to judge. These are the changes men and women most often bring to a first conversation in Auckland.
None of that tells you what stage you are at, or what would actually help. Some of it responds to medication. Some of it does not. That is what the next part is for.
Two doctors, both registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand, both working only on hair restoration. The doctor who reviews your case and confirms your plan is the doctor who performs your procedure.
Hair transplants at Gro Clinics Auckland are performed by Dr Leo Chong and Dr Jack Yeoman, doctors registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand, at the clinic in Newmarket, Auckland.
"I design every hairline around the individual, not a template. My job is to plan it carefully and make sure you understand your options before you decide.
"Every procedure day starts with the plan - hairline, density, what we're prioritising. Once that's agreed, the rest is precision: every graft at the right angle and depth."
Not a network gallery. These are New Zealand cases, performed by New Zealand-registered doctors. To comply with NZ medical advertising laws and protect patient privacy, all public before-and-after imagery is strictly limited to the localized treatment area.

Most clinics can only recommend what they are set up to provide. Gro Auckland brings prescription haircare, preparation and regenerative treatment, and precision hair transplantation together under one roof, so the advice follows what may be appropriate for you, not simply what is available to sell.
The doctor who confirms your plan is the doctor who performs it. It is never delegated to a technician. Across the Gro team, doctors have transplanted an average of 2.8 million hairs each.
Both Auckland doctors appear on the Medical Council of New Zealand public register, with their scope of practice listed, alongside their training and professional memberships.
No injectables. No skin treatments on the side. Gro invested more than $500,000 in practitioner training and research and development last year, because maintaining a dedicated focus requires ongoing investment.
with a dedicated out-of-hours contact. A hair transplant is not one appointment. Support continues through the major stages of recovery and growth, with a contact available outside regular clinic hours when questions arise.
Your donor area is finite, so every follicle needs to be planned carefully. If your hair loss has not stabilised, or a procedure is unlikely to serve you well long term, we will tell you. Sometimes the right outcome is a treatment plan. Sometimes it is knowing when to wait.
Pick the situation closest to yours, and see what we may recommend if medically eligible, before you book anything.
What we may recommend if medically eligible
Five situations, five straight answers. Four of them are not a transplant.

What we may recommend if medically eligible
Once a follicle is gone, the only way to bring hair back there is to move a living one in. That is what a transplant actually does.

Four of those five answers are not a transplant. That is the point of the call. Fifteen minutes with an advisor is worth having even when a procedure is the wrong move, because knowing which stage you are at changes what you should do.
Supportive guidance. Personalised options. Nationwide access.
A free 15-minute call with a Hair Growth Advisor in Auckland, choose a time that suits you. Our experienced team is here to answer your questions and book you in for a consultation if eligible.
A planning conversation at the Newmarket clinic, with a Hair Growth Advisor. Your goals, your hair and your options, properly mapped out. Video consultations are available if you are outside Auckland.
Procedures and prescriptions are only provided after clinical assessment and doctor oversight. Your treating doctor personally reviews your case and confirms the plan with you, on the day of the procedure.
Performed start to finish, extraction to placement, by Dr Leo Chong or Dr Jack Yeoman, in a clinic built specifically for hair restoration. Nothing else happens here.
Some swelling and early shedding are normal, part of healing, not a result to judge yet.
New growth builds gradually toward full results, backed by 18 months of free follow-up and a dedicated out-of-hours contact number.
Timelines are typical rather than guaranteed. Recovery and regrowth vary between individuals.
A plain description of the day, in the order it happens, so you know what you are agreeing to before you agree to it.
Before anything is extracted, your doctor maps the donor area and plans where grafts are taken from, spreading extraction across it rather than drawing heavily on one region. Donor hair does not renew, so how it is spent is decided first, with the areas you may want to treat later in mind.
Between extraction and placement there is a window where grafts are out of the scalp. During that time they may be held in Hypothermosol, a medical-grade solution originally developed for organ transplant procedures, intended to help keep grafts viable. Keeping that window short and controlled is part of the plan, not an afterthought.
This is where the four criteria above are decided. Your doctor plans a soft, subtly irregular front edge with finer single hairs at the leading line, sets the angle and direction so transplanted hair follows the hair around it, and distributes density across the whole treated area rather than banking it into a front strip.
Each graft is placed by your treating doctor using a precision placement device that creates the site and places the follicle in one motion, keeping direct control of angle, depth and direction at the moment of placement. Smaller instruments mean less trauma to the scalp and typically a gentler recovery.
Hair restoration procedures vary in cost depending on individual needs and clinical recommendations. Gro Clinics Auckland offers flexible payment options for eligible patients, with all treatments subject to medical assessment and approval.

Gro Auckland clinic
Conveniently located near central Auckland, Gro Clinics offers medically led assessments for locals experiencing hair loss.
Our team supports you through the entire process, including recovery, no matter which treatment you choose.
Have any additional questions about Gro Clinics' offerings or about your upcoming hair transplant? We have answers to some of the more commonly asked questions below:
Answers are general in nature and don’t replace medical advice. Outcomes vary.
At Gro Auckland a hair transplant costs from NZ$12,000, with most plans falling between NZ$12,000 and NZ$16,000.
The figure depends on the areas treated, the number of grafts and your individual plan. You are given a clear, exact figure before you decide, with no add-ons afterwards. Payment plans are available through Q Card and Nova Medical, subject to their approval.
Hair transplants at Gro Auckland are performed by Dr Leo Chong (MCNZ 75673) and Dr Jack Yeoman (MCNZ 89436), both registered with the Medical Council of New Zealand.
The doctor who reviews your case and confirms your plan is the doctor who performs your procedure. It is not delegated to a technician. Both doctors work only on hair restoration.
Suitability depends on the pattern and stage of your hair loss, whether it has stabilised, and the size and quality of your donor area. It is assessed by a registered doctor, not by an advisor and not online.
Plenty of people who ask about a transplant are better served by something else first, and some should wait. A free 15-minute call is a straightforward way to find out which group you are in.
Early growth is typically visible from around 3 to 6 months, with results continuing to develop through to about 12 to 18 months.
Shedding in the first few weeks is a normal part of the hair cycle rather than a sign of failure. Timelines vary between individuals and no timeline can be guaranteed.
Most people take 5 days away from work, with some redness and swelling in the first week.
You are given written aftercare instructions, follow-up check-ins, and a dedicated contact outside clinic hours for the questions that arrive once you are home.
Hair transplants for genetic hair loss are generally treated as elective and are not funded by ACC or by most health insurers.
Cover can differ where hair loss follows an injury or a medical condition, so it is worth asking your insurer or ACC directly about your own circumstances.
Some people get good results overseas. The things worth checking are who performs the procedure, whether they are individually named and registered, and who is responsible for follow-up once you are home.
Your donor area is finite and does not renew, so a first plan built for the wrong horizon is the one thing a second procedure cannot fully repair. If a correction is needed later, the cost and the care usually sit with you.
Gro's New Zealand clinic is at Level 1, 968 Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket, Auckland 1050, a few minutes from Newmarket station.
Video consultations are available anywhere in New Zealand, so most of the planning can happen before you travel. Gro also has clinics in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast and Perth.
