Dr Eleojo Achimugu
Professional statement
Dr Eleojo Achimugu is an experienced hair transplant surgeon based in London who specialises in hair loss, Afro hair transplants, eyebrow transplants and male and female hair transplants. In addition to paediatric hair loss and paediatric hair transplant, she is an expert in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and is passionate about a small needle approach in all hair types, including FUE in Afro hair. Having served in the NHS, Dr Achimugu exclusively sees patients at The Mae Clinic, where she is the senior hair transplant surgeon.
Building on a strong science background, Dr Achimugu has a BSc (Hons) from the University of Southampton and an MBChB from the University of Sheffield. As well as this, she is a fellow of the European Board of Paediatric Surgeons (FEBPS) and a member of the Royal College of Surgeons. Dr Achimugu also has significant paediatric surgery experience, which, alongside her core interest in the restorative art of surgery and her love for hair, attracted Dr Achimugu to hair transplant surgery.
Dr Achimugu has a patient-centred approach to problem solving, a quiet confidence and strong commitment to practise with integrity. Included in her service is a hair loss assessment and an examination of the scalp using digital imaging to understand the underlying causes of the hair loss.
Further to her hair transplant practice, Dr Achimugu has trained and educated clinical staff and is a member of various professional organisations including the Joint Committee Cosmetic Procedures (JCCP), the World FUE Institute and the British Association of Paediatric Surgeons. Besides this, she is a full member of both the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgeons (ISHRS) and the British Association of Hair Restoration Surgeons (BAHRS).

- I have been receiving care from Dr Ele in relation to my hair loss and subsequent hair transplants over the past few years. I have so much trust in her care and ability.
- My nerves vanished when Dr Eleojo Achimugu greeted me with a warm, smile. She was professional, soft spoken, articulate, patient and calm. She listened well and explained each process in detail, taking time to ask if I had questions at every stage. I did my research before committing to the Mae Clinic for my hair transplant and know I made the correct choice. I would not hesitate to reccomend the services of Dr Achimugu and her Team to anyone needing a hair transplant or hair restoration.
