Before going to the cost, we’ll
discuss first what is hair restoration surgery?
It is a type of surgery in which
surgeons cover the bald area of your head with your own hairs. Firstly, they
will inject a medicine into your head and then the surgeon will use any of one
technique FUT or FUE. In FUT surgeons will cut a specific part of your head
probably 6 to 10 inches. Then they will divide the strap of your skin into
small grafts and then you will go through the surgery and the little grafts (a
graft contains a hair or a few hairs) will be placed on the bald area of your
scalp. The other technique is FUE, in this technique the surgeons will pluck
your hairs and place the hairs by creating holes on the bald scalp. This is a
process of about 4 to 8 hours. The time of the surgery depends upon the size of
the area of transplantation. Hair surgeries are very improved nowadays because
of the advance technology which minimizes the drawbacks and makes it
trustworthy.
When someone is thinking
about hair restoration surgery, the main thing that comes
across his mind is the cost. The charges of hair transplant include many
factors likewise; (1) where your surgery is performed (locally or abroad)
because there is a difference in cost according to different countries. (2)
Which method is used for your surgery whether it is FUE or FUT. Is FUE an
expensive method than FUT? This is because FUE follicles are removed one by one
so it’s a tricky method than FUT. The method of your surgery depends on your
surgeon and the complexity of your case. (3) The size or the area of your head
where you want hair transplantation. It is a major factor to determine the cost
of this surgery because it depends upon per unit follicular grafts, you’ll need
to cover that area. For example, 2000 hair grafts costs in the range of $4000 –
$10,000. (4) You should estimate some other charges too like hospital charges
such as, surgeon’s fee, Operation Theater’s fee and also medicine. It also
depends upon how your cut (wound) is closed by the surgeon because two or more
methods are used for the closure of the wound and it can also affect the
charges. (5) If you are using the technique platelet rich plasma (PRP) for more
accurate results then this can also affect your budget.
