HOW MUCH DOES A HAIR TRANSPLANT COST?
There isn’t a straightforward answer to this question. Both the treatment and recovery come at a price, and various factors will affect the total cost of the transplant.
The cost of hair transplants depends on numerous factors, including:
Where you live:
The relative cost of living in the area and the number of nearby surgeons offering the procedure can affect what a surgeon charges.
The type of procedure you choose:
There are three different types of hair transplants: follicular unit transplantation (FUT), manual follicular unit extraction (FUE) and Robotic follicular unit extraction (Robotic FUE). Each has a different cost.
The skill of your surgeon:
This is a common correlation: If your surgeon is considered to be one of the best, they may charge more. At the same time, higher rates don’t always mean superior skill, so do your research carefully. Look not only for before and after pictures but certifications and endorsements from former patients.
How much hair you want transplanted:
Wanting a few patches added will cost significantly less than wanting to increase hair across the entire scalp. Our surgeons will evaluate your particular case and will recommend the right (and ethically possible) amount of grafts/surgeries needed to meet your expectations.
Travel costs: We offer different packages that can help with accommodation and transportation, but you should also consider flight costs and downtime for recovery.
Remember, Cheap Does Not Equate To Good

Should The Cost Of A Hair Transplant Matter?, The International Society Of Hair Restoration
(ISHRS) emphasizes the true costs of hair transplants:
“What happens when a patient chooses a low-cost clinic that uses unlicensed, non-medical personnel to perform surgery instead of a qualified doctor?
Patients often report poor growth, improper graft preparation, misaligned graft placement, unnatural hairlines, a pluggy appearance, and complete donor decimation. This is because these clinics focus on volume, performing as many hair transplants as possible each day to maximize profits.”
Therefore, the real cost of hair transplant surgery should be evaluated based on long-term results and satisfaction, not just the initial savings. The true cost becomes evident after your first surgery, as the repair work required to correct mistakes made by inexperienced and unscrupulous clinics can make your “cheap” hair transplant the most expensive surgery you’d be wise to avoid.
