Costs and Financing Options for Hair Transplant Procedures
Hair transplant surgery would not be considered cheap by most people.  In fact, some people cannot afford to have it done at all.  However, a great number of people have the option of getting financing for their procedures. 
The costs for hair transplant surgery vary from doctor to doctor.  They even vary within one doctor's practice.  A common quote for hair transplants is between $2 and $10 per graft.  The reason for the wide variance is mainly because the price per graft decreases the more grafts you have done. 
Often, the price per hair transplant session is quoted.  This may be a lunchtime session.  For example, 200 grafts may be done in a short session for $2000.  That equals $10 per graft, of course, but you are getting a special time slot, and a very low number of grafts per session.
Prices for specialty hair transplant work tend to be higher as well.  For the grafts that are taken from body hair, the price per graft may be anywhere from $12 to $15.  Facial hair grafts for those who have lost eyebrows or eyelashes are also high, at $11 to $15.  These are specialized procedures. 
Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplant costs more than micro-grafts.  FUE may cost as much as $15 per graft.  Mega-sessions in which large numbers of grafts are completed at one time are cheaper per graft.  Figured into the fee is the use of highly skilled technicians to help the doctor. 
Repair work is also done at a per graft price.  This includes taking out hair plugs from past hair transplant procedures gone wrong.  The price may be around $12 per graft when other grafts are being put in at the same time.  If the plugs are just being removed, the price is higher, about $15 per graft.  Scar revision surgery is usually done at a flat fee, perhaps around $1000 for the procedure. 
The normal hair transplant procedure will cost differently depending on the number of grafts even though the cost per graft goes down the more grafts you have.  For example, 100 grafts may cost you $1500, while 3000 grafts may cost about $12,000.  The price per graft goes down, but the amount of money you have to come up with soars. 
This is why many people finance their hair transplant surgeries.  To get the results they want, they would have to come up with more money than they can gather at one time.  Some examples of financing options are credit cards, finance companies, and bank loans. 
Some finance companies are geared especially to people who are getting cosmetic surgery.  They may offer loans with no proof of income, available within a day or two of the application.  You can finance your entire hair transplant operation with no down payment.  You may get 12 months same as cash or 12% interest on a 36 month loan. 
Hair transplant is costly, but with the right financing, you can do it if you choose to do it.  Financing gives you the opportunity to use the doctor you want to do, have the procedures done as quickly as possible, and have as many procedures done as possible.
