Dr. Victor Hasson
Co-founder·Hasson & Wong Hair Transplant Clinic
Vancouver, Canada
€4–€8 Per graft · Cost detailsBackground
A 2026 patient story on the clinic's site says Dr. Hasson "had transitioned more fully into his longstanding role as Medical Director and was no longer performing procedures", and that the two patients it describes chose Dr. Shahil Sood, whom Dr. Hasson trained 5. The technique details below come from the clinic's pages about him and may describe his earlier work.
Victor Hasson earned his medical degree at the University of Cape Town in 1984, then began a hair transplant surgical preceptorship in Vancouver in 1993 1. In 1997 he and Dr. Wong opened the Hasson & Wong clinic in Vancouver 1. The clinic says a good portion of its caseload is repair work on procedures performed by other clinics 2.
Procedures and techniques
The clinic offers both FUE and FUT, and says Hasson emphasizes an artistic approach to graft placement 1. Per its bio page, he helped create a device that customizes surgical blades to each patient's follicle size for denser packing 1. The practice describes a "one pass" approach to reach target density in a single session; his procedures are said to average 3,500 to 4,500 grafts a day and routinely exceed 5,000 in one sitting 1. The clinic classifies sessions of 3,000 or more grafts as megasessions 3. For FUT it uses a trichophytic closure meant to let hair grow through the scar, and it also offers scar-revision surgery for old scars from previous procedures 4.
Pricing
The clinic's cost calculator lists FUE at $8 per graft for the first 2,000 grafts and $6 per graft after, and FUT at $6 per graft for the first 2,000 and $4 per graft after; currency isn't specified 2. Fly-in patients with 2,000 or more grafts qualify for a travel rebate and two free nights' accommodation 2. The cost page says it offers financing for qualified patients, though its FAQ says it does not itself provide financing and instead points to independent financing companies 3.
Booking and aftercare
Initial estimates are photo-based: patients submit pictures online for a free graft and cost estimate, which the clinic says can shift once assessed in person 2. An in-person consultation at the Vancouver clinic costs $100 plus GST with one of the doctors; Toronto and Calgary consultations are free, held with a company representative who reviews the case with a surgeon 4. Patients are told to plan for a minimum three-day stay, returning the day after surgery for a hair-washing lesson and recovery check 3.
Credentials and memberships
The clinic states Hasson is a member of "the International Society of Restoration Surgeons" 1.

Dandop1984 got 4,000 FUE grafts (Norwood 3, split 2,500/1,500 over two days) with Dr. Hasson at Hasson & Wong in 2024, paying roughly 23,000–24,000 CAD, with Hasson personally designing the hairline and performing the incisions himself. He posted updates at 2, 9, and 18 months post-op, consistently reporting a positive experience and attentive care, saying he 'never felt like I was abandoned or in any way worried' and that Hasson 'checked in on me several times throughout the day.' At his latest 18-month update he said he 'couldn't be happier' with the results, and while noting H&W 'gets some criticism,' concluded that for him personally 'it was very positive, and I'm very happy with the results' — elsewhere adding he'd 'absolutely recommend them' if cost isn't a limiting factor.

AxelS007 had a 2600-graft procedure with Dr. Victor Hasson (Hasson & Wong), first reported 2022-05-20 at a cost of about $20,580 CAD, and later described in a 2025-03-31 two-year update as $18,200 USD ($7/graft). Right after surgery they noted Hasson personally designed the hairline but was not seen again afterward for follow-up, calling the price 'certainly pricey' while stating their opinion of the clinic 'will be formed off the final result of the procedure obviously.' In the 24-month update they posted photos and reported no complications but gave no explicit final verdict, though commenters reacted positively to the visible results.

Rich-Coyote9241 had a 3000-graft FUE procedure with Dr. Hasson at Hasson & Wong (H&W) around August 2023, with no cost ever confirmed by OP (commenters alleged $20k+); he posted 14 monthly progress updates through a 12-month mark on 2024-08-17. Early on he described the experience as trouble-free and the result as pleasing, saying "I personally had no issues throughout my entire experience" and "I'm quite pleased," and noted the techs who handled most of the work never felt less competent than Dr. Hasson himself. By 9-10 months he grew more guarded, deliberately reserving final judgment and, amid commenter criticism of density and graft angulation, wondering himself whether the grafts "just didn't grow in optimally over time," while pushing back that people seemed "a bit overly critical" of his results. His final 12-month update was photo-only with no accompanying verdict.

Turbulent_Gear6225 had 2,550 grafts of FUE with Dr. Hasson at Hasson & Wong in 2023, and later put the cost at $17,000 (an earlier post implied about $20,400 at $8 per graft). At five months he was concerned about density and felt it looked worse in person than in photos, but later said it "Looks good". At 8.5 months he defended the cost as "Pretty normal price for a quality transplant", saying he preferred a highly rated US or European clinic over Turkey.

OP underwent an approximately 4,500-graft procedure at Hasson & Wong in 2024 for $33,500, performed by both Dr. Victor Hasson and Dr. Sood. At 15+ months post-op, OP reports 'the cosmetic yield is far below what would reasonably be expected, with visibly thin and patchy growth throughout the transplanted area' — Dr. Sood attributed this to necrosis seen in early photos, but Dr. Hasson reviewed the same photos and disagreed, leaving OP without a consistent explanation. A repair was offered only with Dr. Sood, not Hasson, and OP called the clinic 'Absolutely unprofessional,' saying he chose Hasson specifically for his reputation but 'can't even get clear answers about what went wrong.'

mylittlethrowaway011 (42, male) had 4,500 FUE grafts with Dr Hasson in August 2022, paying list price of $8 per graft for the first 2,000 and $6 after, plus 5% tax, about $32,550. He was very impressed with the team at one week, then went through full shedding by month one. At 4 and 7 months he was happy but noted patchiness up front in harsh light and hoped for more thickening. At 14 months he said he was happy with how it turned out.

u/HipRaisin, a Norwood 5, had 4500 FUE grafts (front and mid-scalp only, no crown) with Dr. Hasson at Hasson & Wong in Vancouver in 2023, paying $31,000 USD (with a $400 travel/hotel credit toward flight and 2 nights at the Sheraton). Posting across three threads 2 days post-op, OP offered no results verdict yet but called the consultation itself uncomfortable, saying 'the power dynamics were imbalanced and left me very little choice but to agree with someone who's about to operate on my scalp' after Hasson pushed to skip the crown and pushed his own topical product — though OP added they 'ended up trusting him' on the hairline plan. OP also noted the day-2 donor site was 'more beat up than the day before,' but attributed this to the individual technician rather than Hasson. No complications were reported.

Handiesandcandies had 2,500 FUE grafts in the frontal third with Dr. Hasson at Hasson and Wong in July 2022, paying $19,000 USD. He says Hasson drew the hairline and made the incisions, with technicians doing extraction and implantation, and the clinic cut the plan from 3,500 to 2,500 grafts to preserve his donor. He was so far so good at 3 months and by about 10 months was over the moon with the results, though disappointed Hasson did not do a post-op check-in. He described the clinic as expensive but its surgeons as some of the best in the world.

At 5-6 days post-op he reported significant donor-area pain disrupting his sleep. He withheld an overall verdict, saying he wasn't sure how he felt about the row technique used ("maybe I'm not either" a fan of it) and preferred to wait and see the results before judging.

Cmac8069 (self-described Norwood 5-6) had about 4,700 FUE grafts over two days with Dr Hasson at Hasson and Wong in Vancouver in 2021, for around $30k. They described the experience as great, with almost no swelling and fast recovery, and at 4 months said they almost had a full head of hair. At 8 months they called it the best decision they had ever made, saying the result was still filling in and the donor area looked great. The one reservation they mention is that they did not get a good feeling from the person they first spoke to before being given someone else. A commenter in one thread criticised the clinic for large sessions, which the user did not address.

He is a 37-year-old man who had a 2,700-graft FUE with Dr Victor Hasson of Hasson & Wong in Vancouver in March 2022, paying about $20,000 USD. He said results so far were amazing and the best decision of his life, and at one year said he was very pleased. He said Hasson spent about 30-40 minutes designing the hairline and the staff responded quickly and were friendly. Some other commenters in his threads questioned the graft count or Hasson's graft use; his own reports are positive throughout.
