What is Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that involves extracting healthy hair follicles and transplanting them into the bald area of the scalp where hairs are either entirely missing or getting thin. It is a popular hair restoration method that helps people dealing with severe hair loss. The transplanted follicles are naturally resistant to hair loss. Thus, you will be able to get natural-looking results that will last for a very long time.
Hair transplant surgery is usually performed on an outpatient basis. The number of hair follicles used for the transplant depends on the results desired by the patients. While 1000 grafts are used to cover a smaller scalp area, up to 5000 grafts can cover a large scalp and provide better hair density. Book your appointment with the best hair transplant surgeon and discuss your goals.

Factors That Affect The Cost of Hair Transplant Surgery
Here are the essential factors that affect the cost of hair transplant treatment involving 5000 grafts.
- Balding Pattern and Number of Grafts- The pattern of baldness determines the number of grafts that needs to be extracted and implanted. And more grafts mean more money.
- Technique Used- There are various techniques available for hair transplant surgery, and the cost will be affected depending on the technique chosen by the patient. Generally, advanced techniques like FUE will be more affordable than more traditional techniques, such as direct hair transplants.
- Quality of Donor Grafts- The quality of donor grafts significantly impacts the overall cost of treatment. When the graft quality is not good, the surgeon will have to extract more grafts to deliver the desired results. A minimum number of grafts might be sufficient to cover the bald scalp if the graft quality is good.
- Method of Graft Extraction- When grafts are extracted from the scalp manually, the treatment expense remains standardized. However, if the robotic technique is used, the treatment cost also increases.
- Surgeon’s Fee- Having a highly experienced surgeon is critical for the procedure’s success. Thus, you should choose a skillful and expert surgeon even if he/she is likely to charge more for consultation and operation. Choosing a less experienced surgeon can compromise the results of the treatment.
- Type & Location of the Hospital- The treatment cost is also affected by choice of hospital. Generally, medical and surgical care is costlier at private medical facilities compared to government facilities. Furthermore, if you are getting treatment in a metro city like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, etc., it will cost more than in Tier-I and Tier-II cities like Jaipur, Kochi, etc.
- Medications & Follow-ups- Before and after hair transplant surgery, the surgeon will prescribe several medicines to reduce the risk of complications and improve the healing abilities of the patient. These medications and follow-up consultations after surgery also add up to the cost.

FAQs
Does health insurance cover hair transplant treatment?
No, hair transplant surgery is a cosmetic procedure. Hence, it is not covered by health insurance policies under any circumstance. You will have to cover the entire expense of the treatment personally.
Who is eligible for a 5000 grafts hair transplant?
Typically, people who have grade 7 or grade 8 baldness, according to the Norwood Scale, are eligible candidates for hair transplant surgery. The patient’s hair characteristics, i.e., color, density, texture, thickness, and scalp flexibility of the donor area, are also considered.
Which scalp areas can be covered by 5000 grafts?
In most cases, 5000 grafts can successfully cover the entire bald scalp from front and back. More than 8000 healthy hair follicles can be extracted from 5000 grafts which are sufficient to cover the bald scalp and improve hair density.
Can I get hair PRP with 5000 grafts hair transplant surgery? Will it cost more?
Yes, you can opt for hair PRP (platelet-rich plasma) along with the surgical transplantation, though it is usually unnecessary and will increase the treatment cost. The PRP treatment is usually not recommended with hair transplants in which 5000 grafts are being used. However, if the newly implanted hair follicles fail to survive and the hair density is not desirable, PRP can be used to improve the results.
