Dr. Leoncio Moncada, a Venezuelan plastic surgeon and hair transplant specialist, received one of the most anticipated news of his career in mid-2023. After years of study and dedication, he became the first Venezuelan doctor to achieve the qualifications to become a Fellow of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), a society that regulates hair restoration surgery practices worldwide. In December of the same year, he also obtained certification from the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS) after meeting all the rigorous requirements. Dr. Moncada expressed that this recognition was one of the greatest joys of his career, as it certifies his extensive knowledge and skills in various hair transplantation techniques for both aesthetic and reconstructive purposes.
With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Moncada has helped hundreds of patients recover their self-esteem and confidence through hair restoration. He is a nationally and internationally recognized speaker, sharing his innovative methods and techniques. Dr. Moncada is the only Venezuelan plastic surgeon fully dedicated to hair transplantation, recognized by the Venezuelan Society of Plastic Surgery. He pioneered the FUE technique in Venezuela between 2007 and 2010 and has developed his own follicular unit anchoring technique, which ensures a less bothersome post-operative period and natural-looking results. He is also the only Venezuelan performing Long Hair and Body Hair transplants since 2018. Dr. Moncada emphasizes the importance of patient education to avoid misinformation and deception in hair transplant procedures.
