Hair Transplant Cost

The cost of a hair transplant in the UK typically ranges from £3,000 to £15,000, with the average 1,500-graft procedure priced at around £4,750. Our hair transplant prices start from £3,000 for small cases that don’t need many hair follicles to be transplanted as the surface area of hair loss to be covered is small, and can go up to £7,000 for larger cases where the requirement is for a larger number of hair follicles to be transplanted as the surface area of hair loss to be covered is large. Both FUT and DHI are +£1,000 extra.

All initial consultation are free of charge. The price includes the surgeon fees, operating theatre costs, the pre-surgery care as well as the aftercare kit, any medications that are needed and the aftercare follow-up sessions. There is also finance available.

Unlike many UK clinics, every hair transplant at Harley Street is fully surgeon-performed and not delegated to technicians. Our surgeons are GMC and ISHRS members, and operate from CQC-regulated clinics. You’re paying for surgical time, clinical governance, and an aftercare programme that continues for twelve months after your procedure.

The biggest factor driving the cost of a hair transplant is the number of hair grafts needed to cover the area of loss. A graft is a small cluster of 1–4 hair follicles taken from the donor area at the back of the head and transplanted to areas of thinning or baldness. As a general guide, the more grafts you need, the higher the total cost, however the cost-per-graft typically decreases at higher volumes. Below is our full price list by graft count:

Graft numbers rarely come out as round figures. One of our patients was quoted around 1,800 grafts and received exactly 1,804. There have been other patients with a larger difference in grafts quoted and graft numbers on the day. The price ranges above reflect the fact that surgical complexity, donor hair characteristics, and the design of the transplant all affect the final figure.

The type of procedure that you are eligible for, affects both the cost and the suitability for your specific pattern of hair loss.

FUE Hair Transplant Cost

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is the most popular hair transplant procedure in the UK, and the technique used for most Harley Street procedures. The cost of an FUE hair transplant at our clinics starts from £3,000 for small cases, with the average FUE price sitting at around £5,500 depending on graft count.

FUE involves removing individual hair follicles one at a time from the donor area using a precision punch tool, then implanting them into the recipient site. Because there’s no linear scar and recovery is fast, it’s the go-to procedure for most patients. The FUE cost reflects the surgical time required — a typical 2,000-graft FUE procedure takes a full day and is performed entirely by our surgeon, not delegated to technicians as is common in Turkey and at some UK clinics.

Unshaven and partially-shaven FUE procedures are available for patients who can’t shave their head for personal or professional reasons. These cost slightly more due to the extra time required, and are limited to around 2,000 grafts per session.

FUT Hair Transplant Cost

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), sometimes called the ‘strip method’, involves removing a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area, from which individual grafts are then dissected under microscope. At Harley Street HTC, the FUT hair transplant cost starts from £4,000, which is typically £500 to £1,000 more than FUE, with an average price of around £6,000.

The higher FUT price reflects the extra resources required: an additional hair technician for graft dissection, specialist microscopes and surgical tools, and the skill required to suture the donor area for a fine, well-concealed linear scar. FUT is particularly suitable for patients with Afro or tightly-curled hair where FUE can be technically challenging as well as patients that don’t want to shave their donor area.

One advantage of FUT is that it preserves the donor area for potential future procedures, making it a strong choice for younger patients with progressive hair loss. The visible linear scar is the main trade-off, although it is typically fine enough to be hidden by hair of grade 2 length or longer.

DHI Hair Transplant Cost

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a refinement of FUE that uses a specialised implanter tool called a Choi pen, allowing grafts to be extracted and implanted in a single step without the need to create recipient sites in advance. DHI hair transplant cost at Harley Street HTC starts from £4,000, with an average of around £6,000, similar to FUT pricing.

The DHI price is higher than standard FUE because every step of the procedure is fully surgeon-performed from start to finish (technicians only hand tools out), and because the Choi pen itself is an expensive specialist instrument. The technique allows for very precise control of graft angle, depth, and density, making it particularly well-suited to hairline reconstruction and smaller, high-density cases. Because DHI is slower than FUE, the procedure is typically limited to small to small/medium areas rather than medium to large areas.

Beard Transplant Cost

Beard transplant cost at Harley Street HT Clinics starts from £3,000. The average beard transplant costs is between £4,500 and £5,500 depending on the amount of coverage needed, from filling in patchy areas to building a full, dense beard from scratch. A beard transplant uses the same FUE technique as a scalp hair transplant, taking individual follicles from the donor area at the back of the head and implanting them into the beard, moustache, or sideburn areas.

The number of grafts required for a beard transplant typically ranges from 500 for small patchy areas, and can go to more than 3,000 grafts for a full beard restoration. Most beard transplants use between 1,500 and 2,500 grafts, putting the typical cost in the £4,500 to £6,000 range. Because the beard area is smaller and more visible than the scalp, precision in graft angle and direction is critical, something only a skilled, doctor-led procedure can deliver.

Like scalp hair transplants, the price at Harley Street HTC is fully inclusive: surgeon fees, operating theatre, medication, aftercare kit, and all follow-up appointments. There are no hidden costs. Use our beard graft calculator for a more personalised estimate.

Eyebrow Transplant Cost

Eyebrow transplant cost at Harley Street HTC starts from £3,000 for the surface area of 1 eyebrow with most cases falling between £4,000 and £5,500 depending on whether you need a partial fill-in or full eyebrow restoration. Eyebrow transplants can use FUE or FUT (depending if the patients wants to shave their donor area or not) to take follicles from the scalp donor area and then implant them into the brow with careful attention to the natural angle and direction of eyebrow hair growth. A typical eyebrow transplant uses 200 to 400 grafts per brow.

Unshaven Hair Transplant Cost

The cost of an unshaven or partially shaven hair transplant will be slightly higher than normal because of the complexity of the procedure and the extra time and effort required. Also the number of grafts that can be transplanted are limited to 2,000 as the procedure takes longer than a fully shaven one.

Harley Street Hair Transplant Clinics operate from two locations across the UK, London and Manchester. Prices are the same across all clinics, so you can choose whichever location is most convenient. Every clinic is CQC-regulated and operates to the same clinical standards, with the same surgical team performing procedures at each site.

Transparent pricing matters. At Harley Street HT Clinics, every hair transplant quote is fully inclusive. What we quote is what you pay. There are no added charges and no post-surgery bills. Here’s exactly what’s included in every procedure:

• Free initial consultation – in person or video, no obligation, with a fully qualified patient advisor
• Surgeon fees – every procedure is performed by a GMC-registered surgeon, not a technician
• Operating theatre and clinical team – full surgical team for the duration of your procedure
• Pre-surgery care – blood tests, medical screening, and pre-op preparation
• All medication – anaesthetic, post-operative antibiotics, pain relief, and any other required medication
• Aftercare kit – specialist shampoo, saline solution, neck pillow, headband, and detailed instructions
• Follow-up appointments – scheduled check-ups at 10 days, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery
• 12-month aftercare support – direct access to your patient advisor via text or phone for the full year

We believe in being upfront about additional costs you might incur separately. These are not part of the hair transplant price:

• Travel to and from the clinic – though our patient advisors can recommend nearby accommodation at preferential rates for London patients
• Optional hair loss medication (finasteride and minoxidil) – if your surgeon recommends long-term medication to preserve non-transplanted hair, that is dispensed and billed separately
• Additional procedures – if you later decide to extend or complete a second session, that is quoted separately

Finance Options

We understand that hair transplants are investments into yourself and that some people need help with this, which is why through our finance partner, we offer hair transplant finance options to patients that qualify. This is to help spread the cost over into more manageable monthly payments for our patients over a longer period of time.
