Cost of hair transplant

A hair transplant is a costly procedure. The cost
is usually reflected in a price per number of grafts.
Grafts are groups of hair follicles. On this page you will find more
information about the factors that affect the cost
of a treatment and the price table of Zantman Clinic.
Further information about the hair transplant treatment
and the variations possible within it can be found on
the overview page and on the techniques page via the main menu.

Hair transplant prices are clearly listed in the price table further down this page. Above the table are examples of specific treatment areas and the number of grafts. You can also request a personal price by e-mail. Based on photos you will receive an indication of the costs. 

At Zantman Clinic , the price of a hair transplant is calculated based on the actual number of successfully placed grafts and not the number of advised or extracted grafts. The grafts are counted during treatment and this information is shared with you. The focus is on careful treatment with a natural hair implant and a high success rate of the transplanted grafts. Treatment is provided with a long-term view, with the premise that each graft is precious. With the treatment advice prior to treatment, possible future hair loss and the spare donor material needed for this are taken into account.

Based on the area to be treated, you can consider the following number of grafts as an indication.

A treatment of small coves: 500 - 750 grafts. Example treatment: read Dennis Schouten's experience.

A treatment of large coves: 1250 - 1500 grafts. Example treatment: read Hein Otterspeer's experience.

A front line treatment: 1250 - 1500 grafts. Example treatment: read the experience of Jurriën Hendrikx.

A treatment of the crown: 1750 - 2000 grafts. Example treatment: read the experience of Stijn van Dongen.

A treatment of the front line and crown: 2500+ grafts. Example treatment: read the experience of Willem Langenberg.

The table below lists prices including any applicable offers. A surcharge applies to specialty hair transplants, such as beard, frizzy hair and hair saving treatments.

During the consultation, the different treatment techniques will be discussed with you and the number of grafts required for your situation. The quality of your hair, your skin and the area to be treated is assessed by an experienced specialist. Based on this, you will receive a personal treatment plan for your hair loss and further hair loss prevention. Then you will have an overview of the hair transplant costs you can count on. There is also ample opportunity to ask any questions you may have. For the consultation we would like to invite you to our location in Rotterdam. This is also the location where all treatments take place. The duration of the consultation is approximately one hour. You can schedule a consultation via the online consultation agenda or contact us by phone.

How the cost of a hair transplant is determined is explored using the following 2 questions:

1. How can you avoid a costly hair transplant?

2. How can you sustainably save costs on your hair transplant treatment? 

At Zantman Clinic we consciously choose a price per graft, a treatment recommendation with enough spare grafts for the long term and a careful way of treatment. This prevents an expensive hair transplant.

In fact, a fixed price for a high number of grafts, regardless of the actual number of grafts transplanted, can cause unpleasant surprises. This kind of advice and treatment makes the treatment seem cheap, but it is paid dearly. Moreover, a cheap hair transplant can unfortunately cause permanent damage if an eye for care is lost with the focus on numbers. The scenarios that could have been better avoided at all times are:

1. The number of grafts is taken out, but not successfully reinserted. It may be that the grafts are not placed at all, in which case there would really be malpractice. You would then do well to report this to the management of the Clinic or complaint officer. It could also be that sloppy placement causes the graft to be damaged or not placed properly. A third cause may be that the treatment takes too long and the grafts are out of the skin for too long, causing damage. In all cases, you pay for non-transplanted grafts and precious grafts are lost. This is very painful, considering that most people have 3000 - 7000 grafts available to treat (future) hair loss problems. When that material is lost, it is irreparable.
2. The number of grafts is extracted, but not carefully placed: in order to place large numbers in a short time and sometimes in a relatively small treatment area, an unnatural (straight) way of implanting is chosen. This way, many grafts per square centimeter fit easily, but the result looks artificial.

Two more scenarios are possible, which fortunately do not harm the grafts or the outcome, but are equally detrimental:

1. The number of grafts is not extracted because of an over-advised number: A large difference in advised and actual transplanted grafts can be quite expensive. You then pay for grafts not placed.
2. The number of grafts is not achieved due to medical reasons: A hair transplant is a medical procedure and for a variety of medical reasons it may not succeed in transplanting the advised target number. The cost of the medical risk then lies with the client.

Zantman Clinic was founded in 1976, making it the first hair transplant specialist in the Netherlands. Many years of knowledge and experience are reflected in the quality of the treatments. At Zantman Clinic treatments are done using the latest FUE method. With an FUE treatment at Zantman Clinic you are assured of the following guarantees:

There are several responsible ways to lower the price of a hair transplant:

1. Choose an experienced Clinic you trust: While this may seem expensive, it can ultimately save costs by reducing the risk of complications and misunderstandings. Complications can lead to additional costs for corrective procedures or irreparable damage.
2. Choose another transplant method: There are different techniques for hair transplants. More complex hair transplants such as an FUE hair saving are generally more expensive.
3. Go for a larger transplant: If your budget is limited, consider waiting until hair loss continues (if that applies to your situation) to have a larger transplant. With a larger treatment, the price per graft is lower.
4. Go for a smaller transplant: By going for a smaller transplant and scheduling another session later, you can spread the cost over several years. One caveat, however, is that this will raise the price per graft, not lower it.
5. Take advantage of offers: Sometimes it is possible to schedule a treatment cheaper on certain dates, such as a Last Minute date.

To make use of a Last Minute date now or later, a (telephone) consultation appointment is required. During the consultation we will assess whether (and what type of) treatment is possible. In addition, you will receive information about the pre- and aftercare. These are the available Last Minute dates at this moment:
