How much does a hair transplant cost? What are four factors that affect the cost of the procedure?

Posted by Evolved Hair on September 15th, 2023

Many people who reach us at Evolved Hair Restoration Clinic in Perth, Australia become anxious to ask for cost of a hair transplant over a phone call or an online chat. What they do not realize is that there a multitude of factors that make it virtually impossible to give an accurate estimate without undergoing a proper consultation. So think twice before selecting the most affordable option available!

The success rate of hair transplants and therefore associated hair transplant cost depends on many factors (not just 4!), which we go through in detail, in our consultation. Here are some of the questions you must evaluate

1. Which type of hair transplant technique (DFI, FUE, FUT etc.) is being considered?

2. Who performs the procedure end-to-end? Is it a doctor or is it outsourced to nurses/ assistants?

3. How much healthy hair you currently have that’s available for a hair transplant?

4. What is the medical team’s expertise, certification and training credentials?

5. Is there a pathology powered consultation to assess hair loss and treatment plan?

6. Does the clinic use single-use specialized Instruments?

7. Do you use proper Holding solutions for maximum graft survivability?

8. What kind of safety and hygiene protocols are followed?

The cost of Hair Transplant is determined by the hair and scalp medical examination followed by the number of hairs that the procedure would require. This mitigates the fear of getting undesirable, impractical results. Assuming you have a good donor, the more aggressive your hair loss situation is, the more hair you need and more cost it will be.

Another aspect to keep in mind is to prioritize certain areas of the scalp over others. In many cases, patients with more aggressive hair loss have one definite desire – to get their entire head transplanted. After further review, if your donor area is compromised, many patients decide to transplant only a part of the scalp such as the hairline or the crown. Patients are frequently very satisfied with the outcome of just one procedure to a specific area which saves both money and grafts, thus making the procedure more affordable.

The bottom line is only you can determine if the price of a hair transplant is worth it to you. At Evolved Clinics, our experience with patients frequently shows that hair transplant is well worth it. In fact, many patients wish they had done it sooner. 🙂

If it helps, prices for a most hair transplants we do can range normally between 000 to ,000 based on above factors.
