The National Hair Institute offers hair transplant procedures guaranteed to provide satisfying results.

Whether you have thorough balding or slight hair loss issues, the National Hair Institute will ensure you obtain a permanent solution.
The hair transplant cost will depend on each patient and the procedure undertaken. Before the hair transplant cost is decided, you will undergo a hair loss assessment from our qualified counsellor .

Price Comparison
The hair transplant cost can be the deciding factor in whether hair loss sufferers obtain hair loss treatment. What many don’t do is look into the comparisons of hair transplants over time. When comparing lotions, wigs and hair pieces, oral medication and hair transplants you will see that hair transplantation offers the most value for money in the long run.
Although hair transplant cost may seem like more in the beginning, it is a permanent solution that provides reliable results in the future. Because there are no on-going maintenance costs, once the hair transplant cost has been decided that is all you will have to pay. After the procedure, you can live your life without worrying about daily hair loss treatments.

* The hair transplant cost may be more if the patient decides to have a second transplant. Though the second procedures are a lower cost, this would bring the total cost over 25 years to about $30,000.
** The transplanted hairs never require ongoing maintenance but further hair loss may occur in pre-existing hair that surrounds or blends in with the transplanted region. Some patients opt to take one of the FDA approved medications to stop or slow future hair loss.
Hair Transplant Options
Part of the hair transplant cost will depend on the hair transplant you receive at the National Hair Institute. The National Hair Institute is committed to providing the best in hair restoration and utilises the latest medical procedures and techniques. At the National Hair Institute, you have the option of obtaining a Follicular Unit Grafting (FUG) or a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure.
The hair transplant cost for each procedure is different. Although some patients may choose the same transplant option, it will be different pricing for each one depending on the time and severity of hair loss.
The National Hair Institute offers both FUG and FUE to maximise results for hair loss sufferers. These transplants are recommended as a permanent solution for hair loss. FUG and FUE involves the removal and transplantation of hair from fine to balding areas. Hair follicular units are obtained by microscopic tools and are planted in the hair loss area of the scalp. The hair transplant cost for FUE will be more expensive than FUG as it is a precise procedure and requires the latest technology. The final hair transplant cost will depend on the number of grafts removed and time taken to complete the procedure.
