Pune's hair transplant scene has expanded fast — RichFeel, Berkowits, AK Clinics, Cocoona, and dozens of dermatology-led practices. None of them offer HST (Hair Stem Cell Transplant). India's only HST clinic is HASCI in Hyderabad, and it's a 1h 20m flight away.
Why HST and Why Hyderabad
HST is a patented technique licensed to HASCI exclusively in India. The structural difference: instead of extracting complete follicles (FUE's approach, which permanently depletes the donor area), HST extracts only a portion of each follicle, leaving stem cells in place. The donor area is designed to regenerate.* For Pune patients in their 30s-40s who may need a second session over their lifetime, this preservation matters.
The Pune-to-Hyderabad Trip
- Day 0: Fly Pune (PNQ) to Hyderabad (HYD), 1h 20m. 8-12 daily flights. Or fly via Mumbai (BOM) if you find a better connection.
- Day 1: Consultation, scalp analysis, HST procedure same day.
- Day 2: Post-op review.
- Day 3: Aftercare briefing, fly home.
The Pune Patient Profile
- IT and tech professionals — Hinjawadi, Magarpatta, Kharadi clusters. Time-conscious patients who appreciate the short trip.
- Automotive sector executives — Pune's manufacturing belt. Often combine HST with travel built around business meetings.
- Maharashtra-based businessmen — entrepreneurs from Pune, Mumbai, Nashik who want a discrete option away from local social circles.
Cost & Combined Procedures
Many Pune patients combine an HST session with our non-surgical therapies (PRP, GFC, GFC Plus, QR678, Exosomes) on the same trip. A combined plan can be more efficient and cost-effective than booking each separately.
