Hair Transplant Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Cost

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 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

The FUE Hair Transplant Difference

Hair Transplant methods have become more advanced, and the results often show for it. These more sophisticated techniques and complex procedures require more time and skill. At The Lumen Center, we use two state-of-the-art FUE systems: NeoGraft^® and ARTAS iX^® Robot. As an FUE hair transplantation clinic, we can help you fill in those sparse or balding patches, areas of thinning hair, and rebuild your receding hairline with transplanted hair from a donor area. Results produce undetectable and completely natural hair because it’s all your own.

How Many Hair Follicles Do you Require?

A graft is a natural grouping of hair, usually containing 1-4 hair follicles. The number of hair grafts you require depends on your goals but typically ranges from 600 hair follicles (for minimal hair loss) to 3,000 or more hair follicles (for more extensive hair loss).

Pairing PRP with Your Hair Transplantation Surgery

PRP is an effective standalone procedure to help thicken and regenerate hair. When PRP is used during a transplant procedure, it acts as fertilizer to grow the transplanted hair. PRP speeds up the healing process and stimulates tissue regeneration. The growth factors in PRP also help repair damaged hair follicles and prevent further hair loss.

PRP acts as a biological stimulus to transplanted hair. The reason is that PRP boosts blood supply around the transplanted hair, improving the outcome of the hair transplantation surgery. Numerous studies have shown that injecting PRP into the scalp can address male and female pattern baldness. Whether used alone or paired with a hair transplant surgery, PRP is a natural treatment that reduces hair follicle shrinkage and regrows thicker and healthier hair.

We recommend three PRP treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. The cost for a set of PRP treatments can range from $1,500-$3,500. A package of treatments typically has a lower per treatment cost than a single treatment.

How Much Do Hair Transplants Cost?

Generally, a hair transplantation procedure using the NeoGraft® and ARTAS iX® systems ranges from $5,000-$18,000. Again, this depends on many factors, your needs, and your goals. We encourage you to schedule a free hair and scalp analysis to obtain an accurate cost for your hair restoration procedure.

Choosing a Quality FUE Hair Transplant Provider

We can’t emphasize enough that an FUE hair transplant is an intricate, very involved, and artistic procedure that requires time and expertise. Low quality, low-cost providers will cost you more in the long-run, and corrective surgeries may be needed. In addition, older hair transplants often look obvious and unnatural, and the strip surgical procedure leaves a scar. Since an FUE transplant doesn’t leave a scar, you have flexibility with your hairstyle and can wear your hair as short as you like! The quality of the surgery should always be considered over price.

The Value of Hair Transplant Surgery at The Lumen Center

Is the cost of a hair transplant worth it when combatting female pattern and male pattern baldness? If you’ve tried temporary cosmetic solutions in the past, the costs may be lower, but the cost of maintaining them add up over time. A hair restoration procedure at The Lumen Center provides permanent, natural-looking results with no ongoing maintenance required.
