Cost of Hair Transplant – Summer of 2012


The costs of hair transplant is one of the critical factors for many hair loss sufferers who need a hair restoration procedure. The economic turmoil of the last few years keeps many people from spending on the items that are not essential or that might be considered luxurious.

Cosmetic procedure and hair restoration costs could be considered one of the luxury items for some people, while for others it is a necessity that can improve their self worth and directly enhance their career, personal and social life. An interesting observation is that many people visit US Hair Restoration in the consideration of having a hair transplant procedure right after they lost their jobs.

The reason to prioritize a hair restoration for them has been clear; they need all help they can get to stay competitive in the job market. Some of these people were able to pay for their hair restoration procedure or they financed the entire hair transplant cost. While others were not able to qualify to finance the cost of their hair transplant simply had to keep up with their balding, knowing that it might hurt them in market place and in their social life.

Questions on Hair Transplants for Women

Now the female pattern baldness [FPB] has been identified as the gender equivalent to male pattern baldness [MPB] more and more women are exploring hair restoration through hair transplantation. Because FPB is an inherited genetic predisposition similar to MPB; women can now enjoy the same natural benefits to reduce hair loss as men.
FPB and MPB are hereditary conditions in which a negative androgenic hormonal effect occurs in scalp hair follicles. The result is over a period of time the follicle produces a weaker and finer hair. This is called miniaturization. This process can occur until the follicle produces no hairs at all; eventually resulting in a pattern of baldness. Most women however experience FPB differently than how men experience MPB. Usually it manifests as an overall thinning of the scalp hair; as opposed to the distinct balding pattern seen in most men by the age of fifty.
Parsa Mohebi, MD reviews some questions asked by women considering hair restoration surgery.

How many grafts/hairs would I require for a good restoration? Could you please point to some examples?

Although for most cases with only frontal hair loss we recommend 1500-2000 grafts on average, your personal recommendation can be above or below that number depending on your eligibility, extent of balding area, history, donor density and scalp laxity.
What is the cost for hair transplants (including everything – procedural cost, fees, everything)?
I understand you will not be in a position to get me the exact figures without a personal meeting but I need to have some rough idea to estimate my costs.
A hair transplant procedure performed at US Hair Restoration is calculated based on the number of grafts recommended to you. To determine what is recommended for your specific case, we recommend attending a free consultation with Dr. Parsa Mohebi at your earliest convenience.

Can the whole procedure be done in one sitting?

Yes. Overall, most hair restoration procedures performed by at US Hair Restoration will be completed in one day. Occasionally patients may need more density that is not possible to create in one session or they have extensive hair loss that requires more than one hair transplant session.
Does FUE still have shock loss risks?

Yes, regardless of the technique of harvesting hair we recommend some sort of medication to prevent shock loss after hair transplant surgery.
In regards to your in-depth questions on exact number of grafts, donor hair growth, care after hair transplant, etc:

I recommend calling to schedule a free 30-60 minute consultation in which we can explain more detailed information to you personally and recommend an accurate number of grafts for your specific case.
