Some of the major factors that contribute to the cost of a hair transplant surgery is the location of the clinic, the type of transplant method used, and the number of grafts required to achieve the desired outcome. Despite all these variables, hair transplants have evolved to become more affordable over the years.

Cost factors
On average, a NJ hair transplant costs between $4,000 – $15,000 depending on several different factors as mentioned, with the amount of hair grafts being transplanted being the largest determinant of the final cost. The hair transplant cost is given per graft, and often on a scale related to the number of grafts, therefore, the more grafts needed for a transplant often leads a more expensive surgery but lower cost per graft. The number of grafts needed is determined by the severity and type of hair loss. For men, there can be seven classes of baldness. Patients with Class 7 baldness will need more grafts and have to pay more for their hair transplant than patients with Class 3 baldness. The majority of people who choose to undergo a NJ hair transplant typically fall under Class 3-6.
The maximum number of grafts that are transplanted in a single session is approximately 3000 hair grafts, where the average cost per graft ranges between $5 – $12. In general, most clinics will charge $8 per graft for patients that require 600 – 1,200 grafts. The cost per graft will decrease to $5 if the patient needs more than 1,500 grafts for a successful hair transplant.
Surgery Techniques
n addition, the technique chosen for the surgery can also affect the transplant cost. The two most notable methods for hair transplantation are follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular unit transplantation (FUT). FUE is a minimally-invasive procedure that removes individual hair grafts without causing damage to the scalp. The transplanted hair grafts are then implanted individually to create the final natural-look. FUT involves extracting a thin strip from a donor area that contains hair grafts and transplanting it to the recipient site. Between the two techniques, FUE is more expensive than FUT however; it does tend to offer more natural and long-lasting results with less concern for visible scarring.
Finally, some patients will require more than one procedure in order to achieve their desired outcome which will incur eventual, additional costs for the maintenance of great results.
