Q:

The costs of hair transplant is one of the critical factors for many hair loss sufferers who need a hair restoration procedure. The economic turmoil of the last few years keeps many people from spending on the items that are not essential or that might be considered luxurious.

Cosmetic procedure and hair restoration costs could be considered one of the luxury items for some people, while for others it is a necessity that can improve their self worth and directly enhance their career, personal and social life. An interesting observation is that many people visit US Hair Restoration in the consideration of having a hair transplant procedure right after they lost their jobs.

The reason to prioritize a hair restoration for them has been clear; they need all help they can get to stay competitive in the job market. Some of these people were able to pay for their hair restoration procedure or they financed the entire hair transplant cost. While others were not able to qualify to finance the cost of their hair transplant simply had to keep up with their balding, knowing that it might hurt them in market place and in their social life.

US Hair Restoration recognizes the need and the responsibility of making our medical service in hair restoration accessible to people from all walks of life.

Q:

I am a 27 yr old male and have very low growth facial hair in the mustache area. Please advise, are hair transplants for mustaches possible? How many grafts are needed? What is the going cost of a hair transplant like this?  What about time taken for growth?

A:

People may have facial hair loss due to: scaring and other scar conditions, or they may just not have the ability to grow their mustache or beard genetically.  In most cases, facial hair can be successfully restored with a hair transplant using scalp hair through follicular unit transplantation.  Beard hair can also be used for transplantation into the mustache area if there is a mismatch between the thickness of scalp and beard hair shafts. In this process, we use either strip follicular unit transplants or FUE (Follicular Unit Extractions) to harvest hair for mustache hair restoration. If we have to remove hair from the beard area, FUE is usually preferred to avoid scarring on the hair growing area of the face. The number of needed grafts is determined by the width of the upper lip as well as the shape that looks appropriate and proportional with the other facial features.  The cost of facial hair transplantation for mustaches and beards generally follows the same per graft cost as scalp hair transplantation.  As for the final outcome, results of a mustache hair transplant can be seen as early as 4-6 months following the hair transplant and may continue improving during the first year after that.

Why FUE?

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) also known as FUE transplant is another version of Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT).  It is a newer method of harvesting follicular units that eliminates the appearance of a linear scar and it is much more comfortable during the post op period of a hair transplant surgery.  Although FUE transplantation may be the answer for many hair loss patients who do not want any scaring on their donor area, it is not the answer for everyone.

Who can use FUE?

The number of available grafts in FUT transplants can be limited.  So, candidates who require a large number of grafts in one session and traditionally may have needed several sessions of (FUT) hair transplantation are now able to acheive the same number of needed grafts through traditional methods of FUE. In order to be approved as a candidate for a FUE hair transplant procedure, one must attend a complimentary in-office consultation with Dr. Parsa Mohebi and have the FOX test performed to show eligibility.  

Automated FUE

The good news is that the efficiency of FUE transplants have increased as newer automated techniques are developed, thus allowing hair transplant surgeons to remove follicular units faster than what was possible in the past.  US Hair Restoration is a center located in Southern California and known for its ability to perform quality FUE procedures in its Encino, Beverly Hills and Orange County offices.  We at US Hair Restoration have added automated FUE methods to our armamentarium of hair restoration techniques.  Automated hair restoration surgery with FUE techniques has increased the number of hair grafts able to be harvested from the donor area and transplanted within one day.

Additionally, we are also offering special promotions for candidates who are interested in participating in our ongoing FUE study that is designed to compare different methods of FUE procedures both qualitatively and quantitatively.  Please do not hesitate to contact US Hair Restoration’s office at 1-888-302-8747 anytime for more information.

Hair restoration cost is one of the main questions that is on the mind of most people who want to go through the process of hair transplantation. There is a wide range when it comes to the cost for hair restoration surgery nationwide.

The cost of hair restoration has never been better considering the quality of hair restoration surgery that could be offered these days. When you shop around for hair transplant surgery, you have to be aware that it’s not like shopping for a car or a shampoo that could be found with the same quality in different location. There is also a wide range for the quality of service that you receive.

Hair transplant has been evolving the last 10 years. Some hair restoration centers kept on with the new techniques and technology, but many stopped at some point in between.  I still see patients who received micrograft surgery one to two years ago in a hair transplant clinic in Beverly Hills. That is not all and you may see procedures done without proper attention to the patient’s facial aesthetics. Missing some of the details in the process may make the results disastrous. Little changes in direction and distribution of transplanted hair may be the difference between a happy camper and an unsatisfied client.

Aside from the artistic aspects of a hair transplant, preparation and maintenance of the grafts are very crucial and are not to be taken lightly, which is another cause of poor growth.

Having said that, getting a hair transplant by an artistic hair restoration surgeon could be done affordably these days. Medical hair restoration cost has been at the lowest since the birth of hair transplant surgery. Due to the current economy, many hair restoration centers have special packages and promotions that wouldn’t be available in a more stable economy. We at US Hair Restoration have our special promotion: 20% discount on standby rate and we also give 0% financing for two years or low interest financing for five to six years.

Cost of hair restoration being so little is a good excuse for many people to take advantage of the situation and get their hair restoration surgery done with significant discount. There is a big warning, though. When it comes to hair restoration cost, you have to understand that this is a customer beware market.

We are giving 20% off our high quality state-of-the-art hair transplant surgery costs. That brings the rate down to $3.2/grafts from our original cost ($4/graft). Still you can find hair restoration centers that offer cheap hair transplant surgery at $2/graft, but you are not comparing apples to apples.

You are getting a procedure with permanent effect on your face and your life. You do not want to take this lightly. If a center used the best standard in their surgeries and the most qualified personnel, they still cannot go lower than a certain price or it won’t be profitable for them. So beware of huge discounts and unreasonably low rates. Go meet the doctor or several of them. Educate yourself and ask proper questions about the technique and services being provided.

Never do cost shopping when it comes to cosmetic surgery. There are many hair restoration centers that offer cheap hair restoration. Remember, there is one thing about hair restoration surgery that can be both good and bad: the result is permanent, good or bad!

How much does a hair transplant cost. This is a question that people ask me on this blog every day. Hair transplant cost in LA might be a concern for many individuals who are trying to obtain a full head of hair. Today, advanced technology has helped thousands of hair loss sufferers to restore their natural hair and improve their self esteem.

Hair transplant have become a much better value in last few years. The quality of transplanted hair has improved drastically as long with the cost of hair transplants. Many people were interested in undergoing a hair transplant surgery, but were discouraged by the costs of hair restoration surgeries. Many modern hair transplant centers are performing larger hair restoration surgeries, which have made hair transplants more cost effective for the patient while also finishing the restoration process possible with fewer procedures.

Generally, hair transplant costs can range anywhere from $4000 to $20, 000 dependings on where and how it is performed. Regardless of the center, the cost of your hair transplant always depends on how many grafts patients need.

It is crucial to stress that hair transplant costs vary. The question really should not be “how much a hair transplant costs”, but what the value of the procedure is. That is why it is imperative that you consult a few doctors before choosing one. The possibility of monthly financing with low monthly payments is also often offered to make hair restoration even more affordable for a larger group of people.

Other expenses to keep in mind when calculating a hair transplant cost is the price of any extra medication, blood tests, anesthesia, and facility fees that are included in the cost of hair transplant surgeries in some hair restoration centers. At the end, your cost is associated with which clinic you select. At US Hair Restoration, patients are encouraged to shop around and find the best value hair transplant (not the cheapest). USHR has a high patient satisfaction rate, considering that US Hair Restoration offers the most recent standards in hair restoration surgery leading to the most natural results with a very affordable price.
