International Hair Transplant Clinic
Hair Restoration & Facial Aesthetics · Tijuana, Mexico
Dr. Erik Yáñez is a physician with 5 years of dedicated experience in hair restoration and facial aesthetic procedures. He practices at New City Medical Plaza, one of Tijuana's most prestigious medical addresses, where he receives patients from both Mexico and the United States.
His approach is rooted in a principle most clinics overlook: a hair transplant result is only as good as the hairline design behind it. Before a single graft is placed, Dr. Yáñez takes precise facial measurements — the distances between the eyes, nose, and mouth; the proportional thirds of the face; the angle of the temples; the width of the central zone — and uses them to determine exactly where each patient's hairline should begin, how wide it should extend, and what shape it should follow. This is not a template. It is applied facial aesthetics, refined over 5 years of clinical practice.
As a US citizen and native English speaker, Dr. Yáñez eliminates the language barrier that concerns many American patients. He and his English-speaking clinical team communicate clearly throughout every step — from your first message to your final result. He understands what American patients expect because he is one.
Two areas of focus — one goal: results that enhance your appearance naturally, without looking "done."
Permanent, natural-looking hair recovery using the most advanced minimally invasive techniques available. Every procedure begins with a personalized hairline design session.
Minimally invasive procedures that enhance facial harmony and balance — immediate results with a natural appearance. No surgery, no downtime.
These are the reasons patients from San Diego, Los Angeles, and Phoenix choose Dr. Yáñez over local options.
Born in the United States, Dr. Yáñez is a native English speaker who communicates directly with American patients — no translators, no miscommunication.
Before any procedure begins, Dr. Yáñez measures the distances between your eyes, nose, and mouth to calculate your ideal hairline position. Facial thirds, inter-eye width, temple angles — all calibrated to your anatomy. The result looks like it was always yours.
New City Medical Plaza is Tijuana's most recognized medical address — a modern, fully equipped facility that matches any private clinic in the United States.
Dr. Yáñez selects the right technique — or combination — for each patient's specific case, maximizing natural density and coverage.

Most clinics draw a line and call it a design. Dr. Yáñez measures before he draws anything.
A transplanted hairline that looks artificial almost always fails for the same reason: it was placed where the surgeon estimated it should go, not where the patient's facial proportions say it should be. Dr. Yáñez's methodology starts from a different premise — that every face has its own geometry, and the hairline must follow that geometry precisely to look natural.
Over 5 years of dedicated practice in hair restoration and facial aesthetics, Dr. Yáñez has developed a measurement protocol he applies to every patient before any graft is discussed.
The face divides naturally into three equal horizontal thirds: hairline to brow, brow to nose base, nose base to chin. Dr. Yáñez uses this ratio — not a fixed centimeter measurement — to determine where the hairline should begin for each individual patient. A line placed even a few millimeters outside this proportion reads as unnatural to the human eye.
The distance between the inner corners of the eyes defines the natural width of the central hairline zone. Dr. Yáñez uses this measurement to ensure the hairline doesn't start too wide (creating a boxy, transplanted look) or too narrow (creating an unnatural widow's peak). This single measurement is often what separates a convincing result from an obvious one.
The angle at which the hairline recedes toward the temples must be appropriate for the patient's age, face shape, and bone structure. Dr. Yáñez calculates this angle individually — too aggressive an angle looks artificial; too straight a line looks juvenile. The right angle makes the hairline read as naturally evolved, not reconstructed.
Every face has a structural midline. The hairline is calibrated to this vertical axis so that both sides are balanced — not mirror-identical (which also looks artificial), but harmoniously symmetrical, the way natural hairlines actually are. Dr. Yáñez marks this reference point on every patient before design begins.
Even a perfectly placed hairline looks transplanted if it has a hard, uniform edge. Dr. Yáñez places single-hair micro-grafts along the very front boundary of the design — staggered irregularly, the way natural hair actually grows. The result is a soft, graduated edge that blends into the skin without any visible line of demarcation.
A hairline that looks like it was always there — not placed, not drawn, not transplanted. Patients' friends and family don't know. They just notice you look better.
