If you’re considering a hair transplant, you likely have many questions about how the procedure works, results, and recovery time. One of the most common questions Philadelphia patients ask is, “what is the cost of a hair transplant?” Various factors are considered when quoting the procedure cost. We customize each hair transplant surgery to the individual patient, and the cost of the procedure also varies. We outline factors to consider and encourage patients to weigh the quality of the surgery above all else.
How Hair Transplantation Cost Is Determined
Your treatment plan and the cost of the hair restoration is determined by:
- The number of grafts you require
- The extent of your hair loss
- The amount of healthy donor hair available on the back of your head
- Your desire for hair density
- The method of graft harvest Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) vs. Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT, also known as the strip surgery method)
- The addition of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) to your hair transplant and if additional PRP treatments are needed
