The number of grafts required is a primary factor influencing the price of a hair transplant in Riyadh. Clinics typically price their procedures based on the number of follicular units (grafts) needed to achieve the desired coverage and density. Each graft contains one to four hair follicles.
Direct Correlation: Generally, the more extensive the hair loss, the greater the number of grafts required, leading to a higher overall cost. For instance, someone with a receding hairline needing 1,000 grafts will likely pay less than an individual with significant balding requiring 3,000 grafts.
Cost per Graft: Clinics in Riyadh usually have a per-graft pricing model. The cost per graft can range from approximately SAR 10 to SAR 50 or more, depending on various factors such as the clinic's reputation, the surgeon's experience, and the surgical technique used (FUE, FUT, or DHI).
Examples of Cost Variation Based on Graft Number:
1500 Grafts: A procedure involving around 1500 grafts might cost between SAR 7,499 and SAR 11,999 using the FUE technique.
2000 Grafts: A transplant of approximately 2000 grafts could range from SAR 9,999 to SAR 15,999.
