Hair Transplant for Scarring Alopecia Cost
At Alloroots, hair transplant for scarring alopecia is a doctor-led service to restore hair in scarred scalp areas. Dr. Alok Kumar Sahoo (MD Dermatology, AIIMS New Delhi) evaluates each case and creates a personalised graft plan. Pricing is calculated per graft, with estimates given after assessment. Options may include Scar Hair Restoration, male hair transplant or female hair transplant, depending on donor hair availability.
Cost Factors Affecting Hair Transplant for Scarring Alopecia
Cost depends on scar size, number of grafts, donor hair quality and whether preparatory regenerative treatments are needed. Scarring alopecia often requires complex graft placement, affecting rates. Key factors:
- Extent of scarring. Larger areas need more grafts and longer surgery.
- Condition of donor site. Healthy follicles are essential.
- Technique used, such as advanced FUE or long hair FUE.
- Adjunct therapies like PRP, i-PRF, GFC or SMP to support the result.
Per-graft prices in India are generally lower than Western averages. A detailed quote is provided at consultation.
Treatment Planning and Options
Scarring alopecia can result from burns, injuries or chronic inflammatory scalp conditions. Assessment sets realistic expectations. Options include:
- FUE hair transplant with careful placement into scar tissue.
- Hairline design & restoration if scars affect the frontal hairline.
- Hair transplant repair & correction for failed surgeries.
- Regenerative therapies such as GFC, Exosome Therapy or SVF to improve scalp condition before or after grafting.
Patient images are shared only with consent. Outcomes depend on healing patterns and scar characteristics.
Preparing for Consultation
Bring dermatology records, photos of hair loss progression and details of past treatments. Dr. Sahoo may recommend scalp imaging or a small test graft to check scar receptivity. Consultations are available in-clinic or online with pan-India access. For smaller scars, targeted options like eyebrow transplant may be considered when facial hair zones are involved. Book at least two weeks in advance to allow preparation and donor site evaluation.
