Figures from the last two years, as patients wrote them (currency as stated). Not an average and not a price list: inclusions and exchange rates differ, and a doctor is named only when the thread names them. Prices rise with a doctor's reputation, so compare like with like.

From patients' own posts, as extracted from the thread: one person counts once, whatever their number of updates. These are people who chose to post, not a clinical sample.

Frequently asked
How much does a 2,500-graft hair transplant cost?
It depends mostly on the country and the doctor. The table above multiplies every published per-graft rate by 2,500, per country, with the cheapest and dearest rate shown rather than an average; the patient figures show what individual people say they paid. For a number you can rely on, ask the clinic for a written quote and what it includes.
Is 2,500 grafts enough for me?
Among people in our archive who had about 2,500 grafts and stated their stage, Norwood 3 was the most common. Whether it is enough depends on your donor area, how far your loss has gone and how dense you want the result, so a surgeon decides after examining you. Compare graft counts by Norwood stage.
Can 2,500 grafts be done in one session?
That is the surgeon's call, based on your donor area and their technique. Ask how many grafts they plan to move in one day and who performs each step.
