FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is an advanced hair transplant technique that does not leave behind scars after surgery. Although more expensive, FUE provides permanent results with no visible scarring. Before getting FUE, make sure to have an extensive consultation and cost quote.
Cost per graft
The cost of an FUE hair transplant depends on various factors such as clinic location, experience, and the number of grafts needed. Medication costs and recovery time expenses should also be considered, as most insurance policies do not cover cosmetic surgery procedures.
Cost per session
FUE hair transplants are less likely to leave a significant scar than traditional methods. The procedure involves extracting healthy follicles from the back of the head and transplanting them to thickening areas. Surgeons may use manual or robotic harvesting methods. The cost depends on the severity of the condition and the number of grafts required.
Cost per square centimeter
The cost per square centimeter for a FUE hair transplant can vary depending on the number of follicular units needed and surgeon experience. Financing options may be available. FUE surgery allows a more natural appearance without the “hair plug” look.
Cost per year
The cost of a hair transplant varies based on the number of grafts required. During the initial consultation, the surgeon will evaluate the restoration goals and severity of hair loss. The cost includes the treatment itself, prescription pain medication, and recovery supplies. FUE surgery is more invasive but less likely to produce an unnatural appearance.
