How much does hair restoration cost?
The honest answer: it depends on your plan. Non-surgical treatments typically range from $1,500 to $5,000 per session or protocol. Surgical FUE procedures typically range from $8,000 to $18,000 depending on the number of grafts and the complexity of your case. During your free evaluation, you'll receive a clear, itemized cost breakdown — no surprises, no pressure. We also offer financing through our office, so the investment can be structured in a way that works for you. The more useful question to ask is: what is the cost of doing nothing? Hair loss is progressive. Every year you wait, you lose options.
Does it hurt? What is the recovery like?
For FUE, we use advanced local anesthesia protocols. Most patients describe mild pressure — not pain — during the procedure. Many patients sleep or watch TV during FUE. Post-procedure, mild soreness and redness are normal for 48–72 hours and are managed with standard over-the-counter medication. Most desk-job patients return to work within 2–3 days. For non-surgical treatments like TED, FoLix, and PRP, there is effectively zero downtime — patients are in and out and back to their day immediately.
When will I see results?
Hair growth follows a natural timeline. For surgical FUE, the transplanted follicles shed briefly (this is normal — the follicle itself is intact), then new growth begins around months 3–4. Significant improvement is visible at 6 months. Full results — the complete picture — arrive at 12–18 months. For non-surgical treatments, many patients see measurable density improvements within 60–90 days. We track your progress at every appointment using HairCheck technology, so you always have objective data — not just a feeling.
Is the result permanent?
For FUE hair transplantation: yes. The follicles transplanted are taken from your donor region — typically the back and sides of the scalp — which are genetically resistant to DHT, the hormone responsible for most pattern hair loss. Once transplanted and grown in, these follicles behave exactly as they did in the donor region: they stay. For non-surgical treatments, results are maintained as long as treatment protocols are followed. We build long-term maintenance plans into every patient's care.
Am I a candidate? Can you help if I've already lost a lot of hair?
The only honest answer to this question is: come in. Candidacy for various treatments depends on donor density, the pattern and stage of your hair loss, overall health, and your goals. We've treated patients from Norwood 2 all the way to Norwood 6. We've treated women with diffuse thinning, postpartum loss, and alopecia. We've helped patients in their 30s and their 70s. We don't make promises before your evaluation — but we don't turn people away without one either. The evaluation itself will give you a clear, data-driven answer.
What happens at the free evaluation — and is there any pressure to commit?
No. There is no pressure. The evaluation is designed to give you real information, not to close you on a procedure. You'll meet with our team, undergo a HairCheck diagnostic assessment, review your hair loss pattern and trajectory, and receive a personalized treatment overview. Then you go home and think about it. Most patients have multiple questions after the consultation — we follow up. The decision is yours, entirely, on your timeline.
