Hair implants South Africa cost
The cost of hair transplantation depends on the extent of baldness, the color, texture and amount of the donor grafts availability. Therefore the cost varies upon individuals and can be discussed with the consultant during the initial consultation when the doctor evaluates the patient’s condition of hair loss. During the same session, the doctor totally explains to the patient if any future hair loss occurs and the treatment needs to be performed again. It is a well-known fact that the hair restoration procedure costs much less than other procedures such as wigs and patches while there is also the advantage of having your own natural hair growing on the bald patch instead of pasting patches that cause discomfort. The cost of other specialized hair transplants areas such as eyebrows and eyelashes vary according to the type of treatment needed and can be discussed with every patient on an individual basis. The cost of the procedure is charged at a flat fee per session held. Of course the quantity of grafts being transplanted makes a difference and adds to the cost as well as the number of sessions needed. The currency of South Africa is not as highly pegged as Euro or US Dollar. It makes one of the cheaper countries for hair transplants, but it is not as cheap as Asian countries like Malaysia, Turkey and Pakistan. A regular session costs around 20,000 Rands, which converts to 1,780 Euros. This procedure is affordable, but the number of sessions is what determines whether the whole procedure will be costly or not. It must be kept in mind that the value added taxes in South Africa are high and this may make an affordable procedure expensive. At first glance, the fee sounds economical but for people who suffer from advance levels of baldness and would need more sessions, the fee will of course be much more and that would build up a large amount. The small session, which means that lesser follicles are planted costs around 22,800 Rand or 2000 Euros. It is a tried and tested thing that the hair transplant procedure is a one-time effort and promises good results. This is why many people believe that every penny spent for it is worth the price since there is no every day routine to follow and no medications to take on a regular basis.
