Cost of hair restoration
surgery mainly depends upon the number of grafts being done. Hair loss occurs
due to multiple reasons and as we are getting self-conscious day by day that is
why many people are adopting these techniques to look presentable. Although
these hair transplants have gained a special position in all the hair loss
solutions as their results are rapid and more fruitful. The worth of the
successful hair transplant lies in the experience of the aesthetic specialist
as well as the accurate/exact required number of grafts. Because of the great
advancement and enhanced rate of multiple procedures, its importance has taken
a higher level in the world of cosmetic surgery. The main hair restoration
surgery techniques are of following two types:
FUE (Follicular Unit
Extraction)
FUT (Follicular Unit
Transplantation)
The cost of hair restoration surgery per
graft is $2 to $10 while in Pakistan it costs around 70Rs per graft which is
way too cheaper than Europe and America. It is an approximate estimation of
grafts. To get an accurate estimation your aesthetic specialist will determine
how many grafts you need based upon your baldness. A major part of total cost
will be comprising of aesthetic specialist’s fee, the operation theatre’s
expenses, medicines required for the surgery and the charges of all the
aesthetic team involved in the surgery.Some surgeons or aesthetic specialists
consider the PRP (Platelet rich plasma) which costs around $1500 to $3000.It
involves the centrifugation of blood from the arm region resulting in the
separation of platelet rich plasma which is injected back into the scalp to
help the follicles to strengthen and grow into thick hair. It does not involve
any surgical procedure and has been found to be highly effective and requires
3-4 sessions for injecting the platelet rich plasma.
Some predominant aspects
of cost evaluation:
The total cost of hair
restoration surgery is not limited to the expense of grafting, but it also
involves some other factors too whose cost varies accordingly so it is somehow
hard to provide the accurate estimation of the cost. Also, aesthetic
specialists can give the approximation whether the patient needs 4000 grafts or
5000 grafts unless gets into procedure. Some important factors are listed which
helps in determining the cost of this hair transplant:
1. Blood tests & lab tests
2. Procedures used
3. Medications
4. Area of baldness
5. Location of clinic
In case of FUE and
FUT hair transplant surgery cost in Lahore
Pakistan ranges from $1000 to $2500.As these procedures may
involve number of grafts ranging from 3000-5000 hair grafts depending upon the
area and cause of baldness.The expenditure of FUE/FUT hair transplant depends
upon the following factors:
- Amount of hair extracted and
transplanted
- Number of specialized persons
in your area who offer this facility
- Frequency of performing hair
transplant by your surgeon
- Number of days
off from your workplace as most of the companies don’t count these
cosmetic surgeries in their medical leaves. Also, some insurance companies
also charge more for this kind of procedure.
Keep one thing in mind
that none of these kinds of grafting can be performed in single sessions. This
cosmetic surgery may require multiple sessions followed by the follow ups to
examine the hair growth or prevalence of any bacterial or fungal infection.
Highly experienced aesthetic specialist can do maximum of 2500 grafts in a day
and normally each graft costs around $2 to $10 so the approximate cost of 3000
will be around $2000 and of 4000 and 5000 grafts would be around $3500-$50000
based upon the experience of the practitioner you select for your procedure.
Therefore, the estimated cost may vary due to the sudden onset of any side
effect.
