How Much Does Hair Transplant Cost in Bengaluru (Bangalore)?
Anyone comparing hair transplant clinics in Bangalore runs into the same problem. The quotes vary widely, they are structured differently, and it is not obvious what is being compared. This page explains what actually drives the cost of a hair transplant, so that you can read a quote properly rather than only looking at the number at the bottom.
What actually drives the cost
Five things account for most of the variation between quotes.
- Graft count. The number of follicular units required is the largest single factor, and it is determined by the area being covered and the density being aimed for.
- Different techniques involve different amounts of surgical time and different team requirements.
- Who performs the procedure. Whether the procedure is doctor-led, and the experience of that doctor, affects cost.
- Clinic standards. Sterile OT conditions, equipment and staffing carry real costs.
- Complexity of your case. Revision work, advanced grades and difficult donor areas all require more planning and more surgical time.
How graft count is assessed
Graft count is not a number that can be given accurately over the phone or from a photograph. It comes from examining the donor area, assessing the pattern and stage of loss, and agreeing what areas are being addressed and to what density.
A quote given before that assessment is an estimate, and it should be treated as one.
Why the technique changes the number
Techniques differ in how grafts are extracted, handled and placed, and therefore in how much surgical time and how large a team each case requires. Eugenix performs DHT, a modified form of FUE. What that involves is explained on our DHT hair transplant in Bangalore page.
What surgeon experience adds
Hairline design, graft angle and density distribution are judgement calls made during surgery. They are the difference between a result that reads as natural and one that does not, and they cannot be corrected easily afterwards. Revision work is generally harder and more constrained than the original procedure would have been.
Our co-founders, Dr Pradeep Sethi and Dr Arika Bansal, are fellows of the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery and alumni of AIIMS, New Delhi, with 15+ years of experience each and 30+ years combined.
Every procedure at Eugenix is doctor-led, and our team is a panel of experienced surgeons, personally handpicked and trained by our co-founders. The doctor-led team at Eugenix handles the planning and design, creates every recipient slit by hand, and sets all the technical parameters for the procedure.
What a quote should tell you
Before you compare two quotes, check that you know the following about each.
- How many grafts the quote covers, and how that number was arrived at.
- Which technique is being quoted?
- Who will perform the procedure, and whether it is doctor-led throughout.
- Whether the quote covers one session or more than one.
- What follow-up and aftercare is included.
- What happens if the result needs revision.
Questions worth asking before you commit
- Who will actually perform my procedure, from start to finish?
- How was my graft count assessed?
- What result is realistic for my donor area, rather than what is possible in general?
- Can I see results from patients whose pattern of loss resembles mine?
- What does aftercare involve, and for how long?
Getting an assessment for your case
Because graft count depends on examination, the only way to get an accurate figure for your case is a consultation. During it, a doctor will assess your donor area and pattern of loss, discuss what is realistic, and set out what the procedure would involve.
While Eugenix is located in Bangalore, consultations are strictly by appointment only. To book your assessment, please fill out our online appointment form or call our central number at +91 8826473333.
