Regular Member Punanamous Posted February 14, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted February 14, 2010 I'm a little confused about the number of grafts needed to restore my hairline. After seeing hairlines restored with 800, 1,000 and 1,500 grafts, I emailing my pics for a quote..only to hear " oh you need 2,000 (plus) grafts, costing $10,000+". What gives? Pics attached..thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Atomic Posted February 14, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think you need at least 1500. Keep in mind that results vary from patient to patient & Doctor to Doctor. So there are a lot of factors to consider when looking at the number of grafts needed, it is based on the individual's hairloss, hair characteristics etc... You should pay about $6,000.00 for 1500 grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Punanamous Posted February 14, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted February 14, 2010 All of the quotes have been over $10,000. Maybe it's this (DMV) area. I'd travel for a cheaper price. thanks for the reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member hairthere Posted February 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2010 $5/graft is on the high side. Many top clinics charge $3-4/graft for the first 2k. I'd keep shopping and consider traveling. I am the owner/operator of AHEAD INK a Scalp Micropigmentation Company in Fort Lee, New Jersey. www.aheadink.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill - Seemiller Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 hairthere, Actually, $5 per graft for the first 2000 grafts is pretty standard. Usually, clinics don't discount as low as $3 per graft until after 2000 grafts. Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Atomic Posted February 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 15, 2010 I know Dr. Scott Alexander in Phoenix charges a flat 4.00 per graft & pays traveling expense. And his hairlines are great. I am sure you can find other good doctors on here that will do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
