Hair transplant is the most popular hair restoration treatment. Its ability to fill the balding spots with naturally growing hair makes it a go-to option for a majority of people with severe hair loss. However, due to the surgical nature of this treatment, candidates justifiably think of several factors, with cost at the top of the list.
Dubai—where DHA (Dubai Health Authority) has implemented inclusive healthcare standards—is home to some of the world’s best clinics offering affordable hair transplant treatment. In the lines ahead, we will discuss the cost of hair transplants in Dubai and the factors influencing the final treatment price.
Cost of a Hair Transplant
The cost of a hair transplant in Dubai starts at AED 13500. However, the final cost may vary from person to person due to multiple factors. Here is an overview of the most significant of those factors.
Treatment technique
The price of a hair transplant depends significantly on the per-graft cost, which tends to vary based on the treatment technique. The most common hair transplant techniques are FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation). Here is how their grafts cost:
- FUT: AED 10 to AED 12 per graft
- FUE: AED 15 to AED 20 per graft
Number of Grafts
The higher the number of grafts to be moved, the more you will be charged for your hair transplant. The number of grafts is determined based on the size and location of the bald region. The following table provides an overview of the approximate number of grafts required for the most common treatment regions.
Treatment Area | Avg. Number of Grafts |
Front and temple hairline | 500 to 1800 |
Mid-scalp | 500 to 1500 |
Crown | 800 to 1200 |
Eyebrows | 150 to 200 |
Lashes | 30 to 40 |
Full Beard | 2,500 to 3,000 |
You can discuss your specific requirements during the initial consultation to determine the exact number of grafts required in your case.
The Expertise of the Surgeon
The cost of a hair transplant also varies significantly from one surgeon to another based on their experience, surgical skills, and reputation. A highly skilled and well-reputed surgeon will charge more than a novice with limited experience.
Location of the Clinic
You can expect to be charged a high fee for your hair transplant if your preferred clinic is located in a developed metropolitan with a higher average cost of living. Such clinics must adhere to stringent quality standards to meet expectations. Higher utility costs and quick access to fundamental and luxury amenities raise operational costs, which ultimately translate into higher treatment fees.
