How Much Do Hair Transplants Cost?

Hair transplantation is a rather expensive surgery that is used to treat baldness or hair loss, usually in men. The procedure involves removing tiny patches of scalp, often taken from the back of the head, to be implanted in the bald spots that are typically found on the front and top of the head. While this procedure sounds very promising for those suffering from hair loss, it can be a very costly solution.

The cost of an individual session of hair transplantation will vary depending on how many grafts will be used. Usually, the doctor will charge a flat rate per graft. Since more grafts will make the hair growth look more natural and healthy, this is something that can add up quickly. The total cost will usually range anywhere from $4,000 to $15,000, but can sometimes be even more, especially if multiple sessions are necessary. Additionally, this procedure is rarely covered by insurance, so it will often be an out-of-pocket expense.
