Summarizing the Cost of Hair Transplantation If you want a video of it.

Cost of Hair transplantation at Nuleaf, Pune: Basic terms clearly explained!

Hair transplantation has come a long way from being the procedure available only to the celebrities to a much more common and everyday procedure. Easy modification in the procedure techniques and much less downtime in terms of dressings and hospital stay has reduced overall costs to the patients. Today the cost of hair transplantation is measured on ‘per follicle’ basis. In India the range of the cost is somewhere between 40 to up to 100 INR per follicle with average hair transplant requiring roughly 1500 follicle. This rate may vary from clinic to clinic and country to country. Also the rates will rise when advanced technology is used to perform hair transplantation. It is up to the patients to choose the best service available.

The cost of hair transplantation all over the internet is a bit foggy. It involves lots of calculations, something to do with the 'follicle' or the 'grafts' or 'number of hair' even 'effective hair number'. This is very confusing to patients who really have to know how much it will be on their pockets. I will clear out a few things first:

What is a Follicle?

Follicle or Hair follicle or simply the hair, is a entire hair up to the hair root with surrounding coverings  and glands.

What is a Follicular Unit?

Research has shown that neighboring hair follicles especially over the scalp grow in together in groups. In Follicular Unit transplantation, rather than removing individual follicles, follicular units are removed. This approach not only ensures better survival of hair but also produces naturally appearing hair.

What are "grafts"?

In hair transplantation the word "graft" is synonymous with "follicular unit".

What do you mean when the site say how many hairs are transplanted?

Sometimes the hair transplant surgeons explain the patients how much hair they are really going to get. This is just to increase the numerical figure. For example, instead of saying 2000 'grafts' transplanted, it feels prestigious to say 6000 'hair' transplanted (if one follicular unit or a graft contains 3 follicles or hair then 2000 X 3=6000 hair). This approach is purely a marketing approach and a game of numbers. Also not all the follicular units or grafts contain similar number of follicles. Some may contain 2, others may contain 3 and at times there can be  only 1 follicle per follicular unit. These number vary from person to person.

So dont get confused, dont follow wrong figures. Get all the information before committing yourself to this procedure. For more information regarding hair transplantation at Nuleaf Skin & Hair Clinic, Pune visit: http://nuleafclinic.com/services/hair-transplantation/
