Surgical Hair Replacement for Men- An Effective Solution for Baldness

Hair replacement for men has become a necessity in today’s world since men are now conscious of themselves and do not accept baldness as they think it damages the impact of their personality. As a result, surgical restoration for men is becoming more and more popular. Due to the advancement in medical technology, hair restoration costs have come down. However, treatments may vary in method from person to person. Hair transplant surgery is performed at clinics specializing in replacing hair.

Replacement Procedures

Medical hair restoration can be a painful procedure if not done properly. The effects of replacing hair surgically vary from men to men. Some patients may have a sensitive scalp, while others won’t feel a thing. There are two main types of surgical procedures available.

  • Hair Transplantation – This surgical restoration procedure takes place over several sessions. The healing process for some men is quite long and can take anywhere between 1 – 12 months.
  • Tissue Expansion – In this hair restoration procedure, the surgeon has to make an incision and insert a tissue expander where there is a bald patch just beneath the scalp. The tissue expander promotes the stretching of skin and helps in the growth of skin cells.

How Much Will it Cost?

You are probably asking yourself how much this hair restoration will cost. The cost of the hair replacement procedure is calculated on different parameters like amount of loss, hair characteristics, how much the hairline has receded etc. Generally, the cost of surgically restoring your hair may vary from $4,000-$15,000. This amount is also based on how many grafting sessions you go through at the replacement center. A single graft may cost you anywhere from $300 to $1000. Hair transplantation surgeons can give you an estimate of the costs involved depending on the amount of grafts needed to replace your hair.
