How much does ARTAS hair transplant cost?

The cost of the ARTAS procedure depends on the number of grafts - it gets cheaper (per graft) with the larger amounts of grafts.  I think the price also varies between providers - there are bargain prices from the docs that just bought the robot and the prices are higher from the doctors that actually have experience with the procedure and have before/after photos to prove it - not stock photos of the ARTAS company. Experience is everything and photos before/after are the only proof of abilities

The common question is how much does my procedure cost.  Cost is by results not by graft.  We charge for different areas and base price on this.  Many manual systems or strip techniques make graft count an estimate at best.  With the ARTAS system, your total number of grafts is exactly counted.  With manual systems, your graft quality will vary from 1-2000.  The ARTAS will have a uniform quality in graft.  Other procedures we offer such as PRP and other adjunctive measures are included due to their impact on quality of results.  Best Dr. Anil Shah

Here at Arocha Hair Restoration, we charge $7.50 per graft for the ARTAS hair transplant. As always, we ask that anyone considering a hair transplant procedure come see us for an in-person consultation. Thank you!Dr. Arocha

ARTAS surgery range from $6 to $12 in the Los Angeles area.  Remember ARTAS surgery is just a method is harvesting the grafts.  It has nothing to do with transplantation and hair line design which is the most important part (the results that you see).

Artas hair transplants may be sold by the graft or by a range of grafts. In our practice we use ranges this way if we go a little over there is no added charge or discussion putting pressure on the patient to pay more for a procedure that has already started. We rarely will put in fewer grafts than the low end of our range. If looked at by price per graft the cost may range anywhere from 6 to 9 / a graft. There is cost associated with each procedure for disposable supplies which can amount to over $1500.00 per case regardless of size of case.

The average cost of an ARTAS hair transplant is estimated at $12,000. However, there are various factors that influence the final cost of your ARTAS hair transplant. The number of grafts needed and how much hair needs to be transplanted is one factor that will affect cost, and this may vary considerably from patient to patient. The experience and expertise of your surgeon will also impact the fee. Higher fees are typically associated with doctors that are dedicated to hair restoration surgery, have been through advanced, specialized training, and have built a sturdy reputation based on results. Your geographical location also plays a significant role, as costs are typically higher in the more cosmopolitan areas due to the cost of doing business compared to smaller towns.

Thank you for your question. The average cost of an Artas procedure as reported on RealSelf is just over $12,000. The actual cost is going to have a large number of variables that can only be addressed in a formal consultation. Some of the most important variables are the number of grafts that will need to be transplanted, the area of the country, the experience of the surgeon, and the expectations of the patient. As a general rule, the physicians who have invested in an Artas robotic system are very dedicated to providing outstanding results.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Starts around $4,000 and increases to about $20,000.  It depends on the amount of hair being transplanted.

The price for Artas will vary greatly from surgeon to location of practice.  In the UK, prices will generally be about £5-6 per graft for the first 1000 grafts and a lower rate of about £3 per graft subsequently.

Pricing for the ARTAS procedure will vary depending where you consult, and the vast majority of locations will charge by graft.  I don't.
I see a big flaw in the price per graft approach, for the following reasons:
I don't know exactly how many grafts you need beforehand:  It is impossible to know exactly how many grafts a patient will need before you start a procedure. There are so many factors at play that a ballpark graft estimate is really the best anyone can do in advance.  The right number of is never an even number ending in a series of 0's.  With a predetermined graft count, there is a risk of under-harvesting, thus not achieving good results, and on the other hand a risk of over-harvesting and taking extra grafts that weren't necessary for the procedure risking notable thinning to the donor area, or limiting a future procedure if need be.Consumer confusion:  Graft handling and counting methods varies significantly between practices.  There is no right or wrong in these methods, however it often becomes impossible to compare price per graft among places since there's not a standard legal definition or consensus of a graft to begin with.  Apples and Oranges.Hair restoration is about results, not grafts:  Treatments should be individualized and total grafts needed to fill an area will vary person to person based on a number of factors including hair color, hair thickness, hair density, hair texture (straight vs curly), and avg size of natural groupings of hairs to name a few.  For this reason, if I find a person needs less grafts that I had originally anticipated, I will not take more to satisfy a number - I rather leave those precious donor hairs behind for the future if needed.  On the other hand, often I find I need to take a few hundred extra grafts than I had expected to achieve good results, and I will do so at no extra cost to my patients.Graft quality varies by technique:  I use the ARTAS system because I can achieve the very best grafts with its true blunt punch design which is not possible even with so called "blunt" manual punches. I have harvested up to 7 haired follicular units with a blunt 19g (1mm) punch that would be a hard challenge to extract with a manual system like Neograft.  I find in my experience I get more hairs/graft with ARTAS then I do manually.  I reserve my manual FUE system for "alternate harvesting areas" such as from neck/beard, chest etc, or in cases where the ARTAS cannot be used for some contraindication.  What this means is if I can get more hairs per graft by using better methods, you will need less grafts which is not a bad thing!  Again, my goal is not grafts, it's results. Site making determines grafts:  Stepping away from charging per graft allowed me to rethink how I do my ARTAS procedures.  I no longer harvest a set number first and then figure out where to place them.  I always start my procedures by making my recipient sites before I begin harvesting.  After site making I know exactly how many single haired grafts I need to fill a hairline, or eyebrows, or beard, and how many multiple haired grafts I can pack in for density.  Knowing these numbers allows me to harvest efficiently - and with the ARTAS system I can easily set my perimeters to select for the best grafts to meet my needs that I really couldn't know if I hadn't made my sites first to tell me how many of each type I needed.Less risk to grafts: By making my sites first, as I harvest with the ARTAS system, as soon as the grafts come out they are being placed into the prepared sites.  This means less out of body time.  I often have most of the grafts placed before harvesting is complete.  Less out of body time for grafts equals less risk to grafts.Adjunctive measures help: Charging by graft often means you also have to charge for everything else including other therapies that can, and in my mind should, be incorporated into the hair restoration procedure such as PRP (for its growth factors) and ATPv (pure energy for the grafts this promotes graft viability and reduces shock), as well as some promising new therapies in the pipeline such as stem cells.  When I used to charge by graft these extra a la carte options were often passed on, which made me reconsider this approach.  If these additional therapies help, why should I even consider them as an extra costly option.  It is my goal to offer the very best procedures available, which is why I use ARTAS, and also why I incorporate the best adjuctive therapies into all of my procedures at no surcharge.  PRP helps the new graft hairs grow quicker, and thickens up the existing hairs and helps prevent shock loss.  I mix the grafts with ATPv with the grafts as they are being prepped, as well as provide my patients with an APTv spray to use at home. I encourage you to see some of my 6 month results on the ARTAS website for which I can attribute the rapid results to the addition of these extra measures.  As new therapies become available, I will continue to rethink my protocol with the mindset of achieving the very best results.
To make a short story long, this is why I do not believe in charging by graft.  I let my results and reputation speak for themselves.  I prefer to have the pricing fixed to fill areas or zones which gives me the flexibility to pack in as many grafts as I can without limiting myself to a number, and also to avoid over harvesting.  This also allows me to include all the best additional therapies out there along with my ARTAS procedure to achieve the best results.  Since you asked ;)
