Ziering Medical

What Ziering Medical does

Ziering Medical is a private, multi-location medical practice specializing in surgical and non-surgical hair restoration, founded in 2003 by Dr. Craig L. Ziering. Operating clinics in West Hollywood, New York, Greenwich (CT), and Salt Lake City, the practice serves men, women, transgender patients, and African American patients across the consumer hair-restoration segment, with a cumulative procedure base of more than 25,000 cases performed over the founder's career.

The core offering combines three surgical modalities — Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), Modified Direct Hair Extraction (MDEE), and the ARTAS robotic FUE system — with non-surgical treatments including platelet-rich plasma therapy, growth-strand products, and proprietary topicals branded ZFIN and ZMIN. The practice also operates its own retail channel, zieringshop.com, for branded consumables. Notable methodological differentiation includes the proprietary Ziering Whorl, Blades, Scope, and Tunnel Techniques, which function as named, trademarked approaches within an otherwise commoditized procedure market.

Revenue is generated through four pillars: high-ticket one-time surgical procedures (typical ticket $4,000–$15,000+), recurring non-surgical maintenance and regenerative treatments (PRP, Keralase), subscription-style longevity and peptide programs (Ziering Longevity Collective), and product sales through the e-commerce storefront. Stem-cell-derived topicals (Z-GRO SECRETOME) and a stem cell banking service, developed alongside advisory relationships with Direct Biologics and Vivex Biomedical, introduce a longer-duration, annuity-style revenue layer. The practice monetizes media visibility and a fellowship-trained surgeon pipeline for patient acquisition rather than relying on enterprise sales motion.

Direct peers

• Cole Hair Transplant Group: US hair transplant clinic offering FUE, FUT, eyebrow restoration, and beard restoration. Comparable in surgical portfolio, physician-led brand, and mid-premium market positioning.
• Hasson & Wong: Premium, physician-driven hair transplant practice in Vancouver, Canada serving an international patient base. Comparable in physician-led specialty positioning and reputation for high-end surgical outcomes.
• Bosley: One of the largest US hair restoration chains, offering FUE and FUT/Strip procedures across multiple clinic locations. Most direct national competitor to Ziering Medical in the surgical hair restoration category.
• HairClub: Long-established US hair restoration and hair loss solutions chain offering surgical transplants as well as non-surgical options and products. Directly comparable multi-modal offering across multiple clinic locations.
• RESTORE Hair: Multi-location US hair restoration clinic offering FUE, FUT, PRP, and non-surgical treatments. Comparable in scale of offering and clinic-network go-to-market, though a different brand positioning.
• Bernstein Medical Center for Hair Restoration: Physician-led hair restoration practice known for pioneering FUE techniques, serving a national and international patient base. Closely comparable in clinical reputation, surgical focus, and physician-driven brand model.

Emerging players

• Stemson Therapeutics: Pre-clinical stage regenerative medicine company developing iPSC-derived hair follicle therapies. Comparable on the long-horizon thesis that regenerative / cell-based approaches could supplant or augment surgical hair restoration.
• Pilosio / Turkey hair-transplant clinics: The Turkey-based hair-transplant cluster (e.g., Dr. Koray Erdogan / ASMED, HTH, Dr. Serkan Aygın) competes on cost and bundled travel packages for patients traveling internationally. Indirect but meaningful competitive pressure on US premium pricing.

Regional players

• Direct Hair Implantation (DHI): International hair restoration clinic network with proprietary FUE-based technique and a strong medical-tourism positioning. Comparable category competitor operating outside the US that competes for cross-border hair transplant patients.

Broad incumbents

• Venus Concept: Medical device company that acquired Restoration Robotics (maker of the ARTAS robotic FUE system used by Ziering). Comparable via the robotic FUE technology backbone that Ziering deploys; operates across multiple aesthetic device categories rather than purely in hair restoration.
