A typical FUE session is said to take 6 to 8 hours, and sessions of 3,000 or more follicles 8 to 10 hours 3. Female, beard, eyebrow, body hair and repair transplants are also offered 31.

The FUE page gives a price of ₹100 to ₹150 per follicle 7. The clinic uses "follicle" for each graft 3. Its cost page lists ₹2,00,000 to ₹3,00,000 for 2,000 to 3,000 follicles and ₹3,00,000 onwards for more than 3,000, and calls these ranges indicative 5. FUT is listed at ₹80 to ₹130 per follicle 6. The clinic says the price includes the FUE session by Dr Singh, a post-operative care kit, medication for recovery and follow-up consultations 5. It says prices are not negotiated and are confirmed in writing before the procedure 5.

The exact follicle count and cost are set at an in-person consultation with Dr Singh 5.
