Many suffers from hair loss search for years to find hair transplant prices that are within their budget. What many don’t realise is that hair transplant prices will differ depending on hair loss genetics, hair loss patterns and the number of grafts to be inserted. The price will not be standard for everyone, which is why the National Hair Institute tailors hair transplant prices to individual circumstances.
The National Hair Institute offers the most advanced hair transplants and treatment options to ensure patients can obtain a permanent solution for hair loss.

Price Comparison
Sometimes, the number of grafts to be inserted will be the determining factor of hair transplant prices. Below is an estimate on the price per graft, the kind of procedure taken and what the National Hair Institute did to assist three different patients. Hair transplant prices will be determined in the consultation process and could be significantly less than the average estimate. This is why it is important to consult with a hair loss expert to ensure you are obtaining value for money.
The type of hair loss you suffer and your balding genes will also affect hair transplant prices. Hair transplant prices will change depending on the procedure and personal situations. The National Hair Institute offers both Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Grafting (FUG) and will give an unbiased option as to which hair transplant is best for you. The National Hair Institute is the only institute to offer both procedures and has the expertise to deliver permanent results.
Patient 1:
1500 grafts (around 3000 hairs) Price: $11,660 Cost per graft: $7.77
A patient in the earlier stages of hair loss comes in and wants their frontal hairline which is thinning to be thickened up.
After assessing the surface area and the appropriate density relevant for the patient, the National Hair Institute provided a quote for 1500 grafts.
Patient 2:
3000 grafts (around 6000 hairs) Price: $17,545 Cost per graft: $5.85
A patient with moderate to advanced hair loss wishes to rebuild their frontal hairline as well as to thicken their mid-scalp region. They are predominately thinning within the front half of their scalp.
The patient is advised that they will require 3000 follicular unit grafts to treat this region to a level that they will be satisfied with. It typically takes 2500-3000 grafts to transplant half of a balding scalp.
Patient 3:
6000 grafts (around 12,000 hairs) Price: $25,795 Cost per graft: $4.30
A male patient that is completely bald expresses a desire to treat the whole of their balding scalp. The patient is advised that they will require about 6000 grafts to add density to their frontal, mid-scalp and crown region.
After having their scalp assessed for hair transplantation, the National Hair Institute informs them that they could obtain 6000 grafts within one day. Alternatively they could have two procedures of 3000 grafts spaced 12 months apart.
The patient realises that it is more convenient and more cost effective to get the whole head treated within one session.
The patient hair transplant prices listed above further confirms the individual circumstances that define the cost of each procedure. The type of hair loss and number of grafts to be inserted will be dramatically different for each person, widening the scope of hair transplant prices.
Before hair transplant prices are established, patients will undergo a consultation with the National Hair Institute’s counsellor. The National Hair Institute focuses on individual hair loss cases, which is why we have differing hair transplant prices for each patient.
The National Hair Institute consultation includes:
After the consultation has taken place, the National Hair Institute will also send a personal assessment to ensure you have all the information to make an informed decision.
Why is a Hair Transplant Value for Money?
Hair transplant prices are usually the reason many hair loss suffers choose quick fix options. Products and pharmaceutical lotions all claim to provide a solution to hair loss, and many suffers believe this is the cheapest option at the time. Although inexpensive at first, hair loss lotions and products can have side effects and result in itchiness, scaring and unnecessary discomfort. In addition to possible side effects, these products don’t help to re-grow hair and will only help to improve the appearance.
Unlike hair loss products and quick fix wigs and hair pieces, hair transplants have measureable results. Hair transplant prices are indeed more at the beginning, but in the long term they will cost less. After the hair transplant you do not have to worry about daily applications and can continue leading your everyday life. In most cases, the procedure is fast and you will see the results gradually over time.
Hair transplants use follicular units of your own hair, enabling regrowth in areas thought impossible. With advanced techniques and hair loss technology, suffers can obtain permanent results. So when thinking about hair transplant prices, think about value for money and permanent hair loss solutions in the future.
