How much does hair transplantation cost approximately?

How much does hair transplantation cost? This question has bothered patients with hair loss for a long time. Some people think it is related to regional differences, and others think it is related to the size of the hospital. In fact, there has never been a clear regulation on the price of hair loss treatment, which makes people hesitate outside the window of hair transplantation. At the most recent conference, the Hair Transplantation Association set new prices for hair transplantation, making it clear to patients, solving their psychological concerns, and at the same time ensuring that patients do not have to waste money.

The price of hair transplantation is directly linked to the hair transplantation technology. Many hair transplantation institutions claim that their technology is advanced and charge excessively high fees, causing many patients to spend "wasted money". During this meeting, relevant associations conducted research on this issue, and finally unanimously agreed that the price positioning of hair transplantation technology should not exceed 15 yuan per unit at the highest and should not be lower than 3 yuan per unit at the lowest.

Only when the price of hair transplantation technology is clearly marked can patients have more confidence in treatment. Besides the price, the area of hair loss is also directly linked to the price. Due to the varying degrees of hair loss among patients, the number of follicular units required for transplantation also differs. Regarding this issue, the Hair Transplantation Association has provided relevant regulations. Below, the journalist will publish the relevant regulations on the price of hair transplantation based on the area of hair loss in 2012 for patient reference.

The above information can be used by patients to make decisions after referring to their actual situations, allowing them to calculate the cost of their hair transplantation surgery. Of course, hair transplantation is a surgical procedure, so it should be done in a regular hospital, preferably a public tertiary Class A hospital. Currently, the most formal hair transplantation hospital is the Dermatology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine. Public hair transplantation hospitals ensure reliable technology, reasonable prices, and the most perfect results for hair transplantation.
