How Do I Schedule a Hair Transplant Consultation?

Scheduling a hair transplant consultation is the first step toward understanding your hair loss and determining whether hair restoration may be appropriate for you. A consultation allows your hair loss pattern, donor hair, medical history, and restoration goals to be evaluated before developing an individualized treatment plan.

What Happens When I Schedule a Consultation?

Once your consultation is scheduled, you can prepare by gathering information about your hair loss history, previous treatments, medications, and the results you hope to achieve. During the consultation, your surgeon can evaluate your individual situation and discuss appropriate treatment options.

What Is Discussed During the Consultation?

  • Hair Loss Evaluation: Your current hair loss pattern, progression, and previous treatments may be reviewed.
  • Donor Area Assessment: The quality and availability of donor hair are evaluated.
  • Restoration Goals: Your desired outcome, expectations, and concerns are discussed.
  • Treatment Options: Appropriate surgical and non-surgical options may be reviewed based on your individual needs.
  • Long-Term Planning: Potential future hair loss is considered when developing a sustainable restoration strategy.

What Should I Prepare Before My Consultation?

  • Your hair loss history and how it has progressed.
  • Information about previous hair restoration procedures or treatments.
  • A list of current medications and hair loss therapies.
  • Questions about the procedure, recovery, risks, and expected results.
  • Your goals and priorities for hair restoration.

Why Is a Consultation Important?

Every patient has different hair characteristics, hair loss patterns, donor resources, and restoration goals. A personalized consultation helps determine whether you may be a candidate for hair transplantation and allows your surgeon to develop a treatment strategy based on your individual circumstances.

Dr. Brett Bolton provides personalized hair restoration consultations to help patients understand their options and develop a treatment plan focused on natural-looking, long-term results.

With more than 10,000+ Hair Restoration Procedures performed and approximately 75% Corrective Hair Transplant Cases, Dr. Brett Bolton brings extensive experience in both primary and corrective hair restoration.

Hair restoration involves several stages, from evaluating hair loss and planning treatment to completing the procedure and monitoring the development of transplanted hair. Understanding these stages can help patients gain a clearer picture of the overall restoration process.

Different patients may require different treatment approaches depending on their hair-loss pattern, donor hair characteristics, restoration goals, and other individual factors. This is why hair transplant planning is generally personalized rather than based on a single approach for everyone.

For people researching hair transplantation, reliable information can provide a useful foundation before a consultation. Learning about treatment options, recovery, hair growth, and long-term considerations can help patients prepare questions and make informed decisions about their restoration goals.

Our Pricing Philosophy

Please understand that we do not charge by the graft. We believe that pricing hair transplantation this way can be misleading. For example, when a clinic quotes “1,000 grafts,” that number alone does not indicate how much hair you are actually receiving. A graft may contain one, two, or three hairs, and each situation represents a very different total amount of hair, even though the patient is charged the same based solely on the graft count. For this reason, we believe that graft-based pricing does not always reflect the true value or outcome of a procedure.

Instead, we have chosen what we believe is a fairer and more transparent approach: pricing based on the amount of donor tissue removed. Our planning is based on averages. The average adult male has approximately 200 hairs per square centimeter in the donor area, although individual hair density varies. Regardless of individual density, patients at the same pricing level receive approximately the same amount of donor tissue extracted. This provides consistency in the amount of tissue removed rather than relying on graft numbers that can vary significantly in hair content.

While it is not possible to guarantee an exact number of square centimeters removed, we make every effort to come as close as possible to the planned amount. When feasible, we aim to slightly exceed the planned amount rather than fall short.
