Hair Transplant methods
Two traditional methods of hair transplant can be performed
-
Follicular Unit Transplantation - This procedure involves removing a strip of scalp tissues from the back or side of the head. This strip is removed from the site called a donor region, which usually isn't affected by hair loss yet. The strip is then studied under a microscope and individual follicles are separated from it to form hair grafts. Each graft is made up of 2 to 4 follicles. This method leaves a scar on the patient’s head. This is a slightly more painful procedure. The price for this procedure starts from $3,600 and can go up to $10,000.
-
Follicular Unit Extraction - This procedure requires the doctor to extract individual hair follicles from the donor site. Each follicle extracted is then turned into a graft. No tissue removal is needed in this procedure. The grafts are then transplanted into the recipient site by making small cuts on the scalp. These follicles are then carefully and strategically placed into these cuts to give a more natural and healthy-looking hairline. This procedure is manually done by the doctor, hence it is more expensive. The cost for this procedure can be around $7,000 to $12,000.
