Hair Transplant Cost Calculator

Hair Transplant Cost Calculator

The Hair Transplant Cost Calculator gives you a fast, realistic estimate of how many grafts a procedure might require and what it could cost. Because hair transplants are almost always priced per graft (or as a package tied to graft count), the two biggest drivers of your total are the extent of your hair loss — typically described using the Norwood scale — and the price per graft charged for your chosen technique and clinic location.

Select your Norwood stage, choose between FUT, FUE, and DHI, and adjust the price per graft to match quotes you have received. The calculator returns an estimated graft range, a low-to-high cost range, and a comparison of the three techniques so you can weigh value against budget.

How Many Grafts Do You Need?

  • Norwood 2: ~800–1,200 grafts
  • Norwood 3: ~1,400–1,800 grafts
  • Norwood 4: ~2,000–3,000 grafts
  • Norwood 5: ~2,800–3,600 grafts
  • Norwood 6: ~3,600–4,800 grafts
  • Norwood 7: ~4,800–6,400+ grafts

FUT vs. FUE vs. DHI

  • FUT removes a strip of donor scalp, leaving a linear scar but often offering the lowest cost per graft for large sessions.
  • FUE extracts individual follicles, leaving tiny dot scars and allowing shorter hairstyles; it usually costs more per graft.
  • DHI is an FUE variation that implants follicles directly with a special pen for dense, precise placement, typically at premium pricing.

What Else Affects the Price?

Geography matters enormously — the same procedure can cost several times more in some countries than others. Surgeon reputation, clinic facilities, the number of sessions required, and add-ons like PRP therapy all influence the final bill. Use this estimate to set expectations, then confirm with in-person consultations. This tool is for general information and is not medical advice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a hair transplant cost?

Cost depends on the number of grafts and the price per graft, which typically ranges from about $2 to $5 depending on technique and clinic location. A full restoration can range from a few thousand to well over $10,000.

How many grafts do I need for a hair transplant?

It depends on your Norwood stage and the area treated — roughly 1,000 grafts for early recession up to 5,000+ for advanced baldness. The calculator estimates a range for your stage.

What is the difference between FUE and FUT?

FUE harvests individual follicles, leaves tiny dot scars, and usually costs more per graft, while FUT removes a strip of scalp (leaving a linear scar) and is often cheaper per graft.
