The hair loss problem or the baldness is only cured permanently by the hair transplant procedure. The hair transplant procedure is the process of transferring the hair roots from the donor location to the recipient bald areas of the scalp. This process of changing the hair root location involves the scientific extraction methods known as the hair root extraction process either by the FUT technique or through the FUE method. Both the techniques of extraction are utilized to obtain the particular graft’s number to fulfil the need for the baldness with respect to the hair roots/grafts. The cost of hair transplant majorly influence by the number of grafts as well as the practiced technique during the procedure.
In this article, we are mentioning the factor that directly influences the cost of hair transplant as follows:
- The Graft’s Number: The cost of hair transplant is majorly decided by the number of grafts used in the procedure. More the grafts you need more the cost would be put in the procedure. The number of grafts is reciprocal to the state of baldness and defines the cost, according to the state of loss as well as the need for the graft’s number. Per graft cost in India generally ranges from 25-130 INR. On the other hand, the western world countries charge double and triple as compared to India and considered as the costly option for the hair transplant treatment.
- The Practiced Technique of the Procedure: There are two techniques of the procedure, FUT and the FUE technique and another one is the combined method of the FUT+FUE also termed as the Mega or Giga session of hair transplant. Generally, the cost of the FUT technique is lesser than the FUE due to its acceptability in the hair transplant world more prominent and prevalent as it offers the best natural outcomes. The FUE is a bit costly due to the involvement of the robot or advanced tools and technology and when we talk about the combined technique of the FUT and FUE, it is also a costly technique.
- The Available Grade of Baldness: The available grade of Norwood baldness directly influences the cost of the procedure. The bigger grade of baldness needs the higher number of hair grafts/roots, whereas the lesser grade such as NW-I, II, or III needs a lesser number of grafts to cover the respective grade of baldness. And, thus, influences the cost of the procedure.
- The Performing Surgeon: The role of the surgeon weighs the top place in the hair transplant procedure as it assures you about the original outcome with the best natural hairline and the aesthetic touch and effect. The performing surgeon must be well-expert and having the quite knowledge of each and every aspect of the procedure. The expert surgeon with a very good number of results obviously charges a higher cost of the procedure.
- The Hair Transplant Clinic: The recognized and reputed clinics always play a positive factor and so influence the cost of the procedure. The hair transplant clinic must be equipped with the modern and advanced technology along with the safety and hygiene measure that affect the outcome of the procedure in a very positive manner.
