- How much does a hair transplant cost? Hair transplant costs typically range from $1,000 to $25,000 depending on various factors.
- How should I care for my hair after a hair transplant? Follow your doctor's aftercare instructions, avoid sun exposure, and use gentle shampoo.
- Can I combine different hair transplant treatments? Clinics often sell add-ons such as PRP with a transplant. Some small studies suggest a benefit, but the evidence is limited, so ask what each add-on costs and what evidence supports it.
