Price Per Graft
Here at Houston Hair Transplant Center, we specialize in a technique known as follicular unit extraction (FUE).[1] [2] As the name suggests, we harvest clusters of follicles called “units” from your donor site. The donor site is often located at the back of the head, where vibrant hair growth flourishes. Follicles from this area will be collected and cradled in our NeoGraft device.
Once the necessary number of units is gathered, they are prepped for transplantation. Healthy follicular cells of your very own are strategically placed along the site of thinning or balding. Your body adopts and adapts, transforming your follicles into new hair growth exactly where you want it.
The cost of FUE is as low as $4.50 per graft. Again, this number must be examined in context. Hair restoration clinics in Los Angeles and New York typically charge between $6 and $11 per graft. According to some high-priced clinics, a graft equals one follicle, but not at Houston Hair Transplant Center. Here, we consider a graft equal to a follicular unit, which may contain three viable follicles. Hence, you have already multiplied your savings by a factor of three! When you add up the hundreds of meticulous extractions required to achieve your aesthetic goals, you can save between $2,000 and $3,000 working with Dr. Jezic.
FUE vs. FUT
As the old saying goes: you get what you pay for. As you assess the cost/benefit ratio of follicular unit extraction, please contrast it against the alternative: follicular unit transplantation (FUT).[3] Other hair restoration providers may still use the FUT approach to treatment. While the price is comparable to FUE, the benefits are far inferior.
FUT services generally cost between $3 and $7 per graft, which sounds inexpensive, but what does FUT entail? Also known as “strip harvesting,” FUT requires the removal of a sizable swath of flesh along the donor area. In addition to any viable follicles that may be harvested, patients suffer the loss of skin as well. FUT results in scarring along the donor strip, and the grafts are less selective than they are with the FUE technique.
Therefore, when you are comparing the prices of FUT and FUE, keep in mind that FUE grafts are pin-sized and precise. Only the most viable follicular units are chosen, whereas the FUT method is clumsy and less effective.
The NeoGraft Difference
One of the variables that makes FUE so reliable is our NeoGraft system of extraction and transplantation. The automated procedure removes uncertainty from the hair restoration process. NeoGraft selectively extracts healthy units of follicles and collects them in its patented suction canister.[4] The motor of the NeoGraft device is smooth and silent, eliminating vibrations that can damage the living follicles.
Since you are paying per graft, you want each one to be cradled tenderly. The NeoGraft system treats each harvested hair follicle with the gentle consideration it deserves. Once a sufficient number of grafts have been harvested, our skilled technicians will use NeoGraft’s handheld extension to transplant the units to your treatment area. The device allows for placement that is precise to its core. NeoGraft punches measure between 0.8 and 1.2 mm in diameter. The fact that both the extraction process and transplantation process are expertly regulated and administered through the same system saves you money and time.
Benefits of FUE
In addition to the obvious physical benefits of FUE, there are myriad psychological and budgetary rewards that go with it. When your hairline does not reflect your ideal self, it can cause distress. You may exhibit this discord by shying away from certain social and/or employment opportunities.
Case in point: if you perceive your appearance as “bald” or in any way older than you feel inside, it may prevent you from applying for a job that requires youth and vigor. This simple decision impacts your earnings potential. Hence, FUE can literally open your horizons to a more lucrative future.
NeoGraft Cost Benefits
- Streamlines the follicular extraction process so less sessions are required
- Automates the transplantation procedure, delivering more “bang for the buck”
- NeoGraft represents the pinnacle of FUE technology, so you are receiving the very best treatment that money can buy

Eligible Candidates
If you live in Houston, or plan to visit the area for a spell, then we are your premier destination for hair restoration. Candidates for FUE treatment must have enough viable follicles in the donor site(s) to contribute to the harvesting process. If you have an active infection or skin condition in either the donor area or the treatment area, you may need to postpone your NeoGraft session until the matter is cleared up. Dr. Jezic can determine your eligibility for FUE hair restoration during your comprehensive consultation.
