If you are looking at having a hair transplant, knowing how many grafts you will need to restore your hair is important. Before you book an appointment in our clinic feel free to fill out this calculator as it will give you an idea of what you will need before you see our hair transplant surgeons, Dr Vara and Dr Fernando.
The Treatment Rooms London has developed our easy-to-use, interactive hair transplant calculator. This bespoke service gives you the opportunity to estimate how many grafts and hairs you might require were you to go ahead and book an FUE hair transplant at our clinic.
Please note, this is only to be used as an initial estimation tool. Once you have made the decision to proceed with an FUE hair transplant, your initial consultation with our surgeons will determine how many grafts you will require.
How many grafts do I need for my FUE hair transplant?
Every hair transplant is unique, and at our London hair transplant clinic, we ensure that each patient receives a completely personalised service. However, a question we're often asked is "how many hair grafts do I need for a successful FUE hair transplant?", and there are some unique hair characteristics such as hair colour and type that we can assess to give a broad answer to the above question. This is what we have programmed into our hair graft calculator.
Why is it important to know how many grafts I need for my FUE hair transplant?
Hair transplant costs are calculated by the number of hair grafts that need to be transplanted. The more grafts required, the longer the procedure and therefore the higher the cost. Typically as the severity of balding increases, the number of grafts needed to provide natural-looking cover also increases.
How do I use The Treatment Rooms London hair graft calculator?
Our interactive calculator provides you with the total number of grafts and hairs you will need based upon your age, gender, hair type, colour, and the location(s) of hair loss.
We've made our hair graft calculator as easy to use as possible. Simply enter in your details and our calculator will let you know roughly how many grafts you're likely to need. Follow our step-by-step guide below for more information.
Step 1
Choose Your Age
Before the age of 27 it can be difficult to predict how much hair you will lose, and therefore you may not be suitable for a hair transplant. This is why it is always important to seek an opinion with one of our surgeons during an in-depth consultation.
Step 2
Gender Assigned At Birth
Update the graphic to better reflect your circumstances. There are a number of marked differences between male and female hair transplants. Typically female hair loss will not follow the same pattern as male, and therefore the goal is less often to frame the face, but instead provide additional volume to the top and back of the head.
Step 3
Choose Your Hair Type and Colour
Hair texture can affect your personal treatment plan. For example, afro-textured hair can add more volume in hair coverage meaning fewer hair grafts are needed.

Hair transplant price
The cost of a hair transplant will vary, depending on the number of grafts and hairs a patient needs. As each case is unique and the service is bespoke, it can be hard to provide an accurate price without meeting in person first, so our hair graft calculator was designed with that in mind.
As a general guideline, The Treatment Rooms London charges approximately £4-£5 per graft. Below is a cost table to provide a breakdown of prices, corresponding to the number of grafts.
| NUMBER OF GRAFTS | TOTAL PRICE |
|---|---|
| 500 - 1000 grafts | £3,000 - £5,000 |
| 1000 - 2000 grafts | £5,000 - £10,000 |
| 2000 - 4000 grafts* | £10,000 - £20,000 |
