How much does a hair transplant cost?

First the facts. Hair transplant is not a cheap undertaking. It is a booming industry and yet the prices are steep-it costs as much to have hair transplant as it does to have a nice 4-door sedan. You may have hair but you will be walking or taking a bus for a very long while.

The procedure is generally done by plastic surgeons but today cosmetic surgeons, dermatologists, head and neck surgeons and even some general surgeons are into it. Everyone is into hair transplant not because they are interested in making you more handsome but because there is money to be made. And only in a few cases are the results good. So talk to people who have had the procedure and do not rush into the surgery. If in doubt, seek a second opinion

On average, hair transplants can cost anywhere from $5-$25,000 for the entire procedure. The entire process may require several visits to the surgeon and can take up to a year for a complete hair transplant.


The end result- mediocre at best and not worth it
