About Pacific Hair Center
Pacific Hair Center, located in the vibrant city of San Diego, California, stands as a premier destination for advanced hair restoration. Founded and led by the distinguished Dr. Roy David, the clinic is dedicated to providing patients with the most effective and sophisticated hair transplant solutions available. Pacific Hair Center has built a reputation for excellence by combining state-of-the-art technology with the surgical artistry of a renowned specialist. The clinic’s philosophy centers on creating customized treatment plans that deliver natural, lasting results, helping patients regain not only their hair but also their confidence. As a leading practice in Southern California, it attracts individuals seeking the highest standard of care for their hair loss concerns. The clinic is distinguished by the exceptional expertise of its founder, Dr. Roy David. Dr. David is a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, holding certifications from both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery. With nearly two decades of experience dedicated exclusively to plastic surgery of the face, head, and neck, his skill set is uniquely suited to the intricate demands of hair restoration. His deep understanding of facial aesthetics ensures that every procedure is performed with an artistic eye for balance and natural appearance. Dr. David is an active member of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and the American Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, affiliations that reflect his commitment to staying at the forefront of his field. Pacific Hair Center is notable for being one of only two clinics in the San Diego area to offer the revolutionary ARTAS iX Robotic Hair Transplant system. This cutting-edge technology represents the pinnacle of the Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) technique, utilizing robotic precision to harvest and implant hair follicles. The system’s advanced algorithms and high-definition imaging virtually eliminate human error, ensuring unparalleled accuracy, minimizing damage to existing hair, and leaving no linear scar. This results in a more comfortable patient experience and a significantly quicker recovery period. In addition to robotic procedures, the clinic offers the NeoGraft FUE system, an automated and minimally invasive handheld method that Dr. David expertly performs for patients seeking an alternative to the ARTAS robot. Understanding that each patient's journey with hair loss is unique, Pacific Hair Center provides a comprehensive suite of both surgical and non-surgical treatments. For those not yet requiring or desiring a full transplant, the clinic offers Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. This non-surgical option harnesses the powerful growth factors found in the patient's own blood, which are isolated and injected into the scalp to awaken dormant follicles, strengthen existing hair, and reduce shedding. This holistic approach allows Dr. David to design a tailored strategy for every individual, whether they are in the early stages of hair thinning or require extensive restoration. The clinic’s state-of-the-art facility in San Diego is equipped to provide these diverse treatments in a safe, private, and professional environment, underscored by high patient satisfaction, as evidenced by its average 4.7-star rating across more than 120 reviews.

FUT • 3000 Grafts • 10mo post-op
Exceeded my expectations
Went to Pacific Hair Center after a friend recommended them. Dr. Roy David and the team were fantastic. The consultation was thorough — they didn't try to oversell me on grafts I didn't need. Ended up getting 3000 grafts via FUT. The day of the procedure was long but manageable, they kept me comfortable with breaks and entertainment. 10 months later the results speak for themselves. Natural hairline, good density, minimal scarring in the donor area. Paid $13,300 all-in and feel it was excellent value.Really happy with my choice.
Pros
- + Painless procedure
- + Clean facility
- + Great density
- + Doctor-led procedure
FUT • 2000 Grafts • 9mo post-op
Solid clinic, good results
Had my FUT procedure (2000 grafts) at Pacific Hair Center about 9 months ago. The facility was professional and clean. Procedure took about 7-8 hours. Results are good — not perfect, but definitely a massive improvement. The hairline looks natural and density is decent. I might consider a small touch-up session in the future for the crown area, but overall I'm happy. Paid $7,000 all-in and feel it was excellent value.Communication could have been a bit better during the recovery phase but the results make up for it.
Pros
- + Natural hairline design
- + Fast recovery
- + Minimal scarring
- + Clean facility
Cons
- − Donor area soreness
