Cost of the Procedure At Meshkin Medical Hair Restoration in Newport Beach
Selecting the hair restoration practice to perform your hair transplant procedure is a big decision, and the cost for the procedure can be a driving force in making your final decision. There are many factors that influence the cost of the procedure. However, as a general rule, most hair transplant specialists charge per number of grafts for each session.
At Meshkin Medical Hair Restoration in Newport Beach, we charge $3.50 per graft for FUT and FUE hair transplants. We do offer seasonal discounts and promotions.
How is the cost for the procedure determined?
Determining the cost of your hair transplant procedure depends on the degree of hair loss. Your donor hair has to be examined to determine the amount of quality donor hair that can be safely harvested. The donor availability and the degree of hair loss help establish the surgery session size and the actual price range. Most hair restoration practices charge an average price per graft for the harvested donor hair per session. That average price per graft is impacted by the type of procedure you choose to have, whether it is FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) Strip, or FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). All these factors are combined to determine the actual cost for your surgical hair restoration.
Are hair transplants affordable, and what is the average cost?
Now, more than ever before, surgical hair restoration is affordable. Typical procedures range from $3,500 to $10,000, depending on the number of grafts. An average cost for a procedure at Dr. Meshkin’s clinic is close to $7000. To help you plan financially, we have different seasonal discounts available. We also offer student and traveling discounts. Financing is also available through www.carecredit.com for clients seeking monthly financing options.
Are there any additional costs involved?
Not for the actual procedure. However, you may need to buy post op care for an additional cost and also pay for your post op medical prescription from a pharmacy.
Can I finance my hair transplant procedure?
While we do not offer in-house financing, we offer financing for our clients with good credit through www.carecredit.com
You can apply on their website to find out if you qualify.
What forms of payment do you accept?
At Meshkin Medial Hair Restoration, we accept all forms of payment, including credit cards, cash, cashier’s checks, and financing. We do not accept personal checks as a form of payment on the day of the procedure. Checks should be cleared at least two weeks before the procedure. To confirm the date of the procedure, a deposit is required, and the remaining balance is due in full on the day of surgery.
Is there an additional cost for the second procedure?
Since hair loss is progressive, you may need additional procedures in the future. The cost for the second procedure is independent of the prior surgery and is based on the number of grafts and the technique you choose to do.
Should cost be a driving factor for the procedure?
While cost may be a driving factor in your decision, you have to make sure you are getting quality care for your money spent. At Meshkin Medical Hair Restoration, you will get the best quality hair transplant from a well-recognized and experienced hair transplant specialist at the most competitive price. However, if cost is the only factor, whatever you pay for a bad hair transplant is way too much.
Cancellation & Reschedule Office Policy
When is payment due for my surgery?
The surgery fee must be paid in full before the surgery takes place.
Is there a surgery deposit?
Yes. Once a patient decides to have surgery on a specified date, we will collect a $1,000 scheduling and booking fee in order to reserve a procedure room for that specific schedule date. This will be deducted from the total cost of the surgery.
Is there a cancellation fee?
If the surgery is cancelled over a 10 day’s notice, the deposit fee will be refunded. In the event that a patient cancels less than 10 days before the scheduled surgery time, the office will retain the deposit amount of $1,000 room reservation fee.
Is there a rescheduling fee?
If the patient reschedules twice, a full nonrefundable payment is required before the date is set for the procedure. If cancelled at any time, the payment will not be refunded. If the surgery is cancelled on the day of the surgery, the patient is still responsible for the full payment of the procedure.
