Hair loss has become a common problem for most people these days. If a person takes action in the early stages of hair loss, namely the thinning of the hair, they can restore the hair with certain drugs’ help. But when there is no effect from the treatment, or the person has lost their hair forever, a hair transplant is the only way to restore hair. Many different factors determine the cost of a hair transplant. In this blog, Cyber Hairsure Clinic will discuss the factors that influence the cost of hair transplants.

What factors determine the cost of a hair transplant?

Hair transplant costs vary widely depending on various factors, which are discussed below:

Technique / Procedure: When choosing the best technique for hair transplantation or therapy, people are still ignorant and lack essential knowledge. There are two most extensive and widely used hair transplant techniques: follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular unit transplant (FUT).

Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT): During this hair transplant technique, the surgeon first finds an area of ​​good hair growth, usually on the back of the head, and then a section of skin that is several inches long is removed. After receiving the skin graft, this area is closed skillfully with the help of stitches. The surgeon then carefully cuts this long graft into small pieces using a magnifying glass and scalpel. This skin area is then strategically implanted into the scalp area where the hair will grow.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): FUE Hair Transplant is very popular in India today because this hair transplant method has various advantages such as lack of scar visibility, loss of sensitivity, permanent hair growth, etc. As a result, this method is commonly used, FUE Hair transplant costs bit more than the FUT procedure. During this technique, the hair follicle is cut directly from the head’s back in one motion using a small punch. The surgeon then uses a slit  to make a small incision of 1mm in the recipient area and transplants hair follicle.

 Degree of Baldness: The cost of hair transplantation is mainly influenced by the degree of baldness a person has. When a person has slight baldness, it is much easier and cheaper to treat that person than people with serious baldness problems because of the number of grafts and sitting increases in proportion to the rate of baldness.

Several grafts: Hair transplant costs vary depending on the cost of the hair transplant and the number of grafts required to cover the affected area, which further affects the treatment cost.

Availability of donor transplants: Hair follicles are usually taken from the back of the head for hair transplant purposes. However, when a person doesn’t have enough hair follicles on their back, they come from other parts of the body such as the chest or chin, which is quite challenging to do and requires a lot of skill. This also leads to an increase in the cost of hair transplants.

Body hair transplants are expensive because body hair is more delicate and challenging to extract. Removing body hair also requires more experienced and skilled surgeons.

 Several sittings: Usually, hair transplant/treatment is only done in one session (for average hair loss). The number of sessions required to cover the affected area may increase depending on the degree of baldness and the number of grafts transplanted. As a result, this factor plays an essential role in increasing the cost of hair transplants.

 Experience and qualifications of surgeons: Hair transplantation is a very complex treatment; it requires a lot of knowledge, skill and team effort. Therefore, a highly skilled and experienced team of surgeons is expected to charge more than others because they know how to use the latest machines and do not damage the scalp. Suppose the surgeon has more than ten years of experience in hair transplantation. In this way, an experienced and highly qualified surgical team promises to get the best products that are usually “unspoken but applied”. 

Facility Infrastructure: Another significant factor to consider when doing hair transplantation in India is the clinics’ location and reputation that provide this service. A well-equipped clinic, known for its latest technology, equipment, hygienic environment, and the ability to treat multiple patients simultaneously and is located in a large city can cost more than a clinic in a small town.

Clinic’s Location: The location of the clinic also affects the cost of hair transplants. If you search the internet, you can find many well-known hair transplant clinics for varying fees. For example, hair transplant prices in Hyderabad are different from hair transplant prices in small cities.

The clinic’s reputation: The clinic’s popularity also plays an essential role in determining hair transplants’ cost. The well-known clinic demands more than other clinics simply because of its high-quality service and qualified and experienced team. 

Hence, these factors play an essential role in determining the cost of a hair transplant.
