Hair Loss Treatment at NHI

Updated Pricing - Large Session Discount

The New Hair Institute has made some changes which will allow us to produce a better product in a shorter time frame. As far back as 1993, we recognized the value of achieving high transplant density in a single session. Unfortunately, the very bald man had a problem; his donor supply could not provide the necessary grafts to achieve the greatest coverage in a single session. The less bald patient had a different problem; there were limitations on how dense you could pack his recipient area. To solve these problems, NHI has focused on two specific issues:

1. Move the greatest amount of hair in each session.


Safety and long-term scarring concerns have limited the size of donor strips and graft yields in the past. We recently had a breakthrough in our donor closure technique that we believe reduces the risks of stretching the donor scar. This allows us to expand your donor area, remove wider donor strips, and get more grafts per session. Now we can significantly increase the average number of grafts per session to a total of between three and five thousand grafts, based on your donor supply. Fewer surgeries will produce less damage to the donor area and will help you achieve your goals faster.

2. Put in the highest density possible in each session.


With a higher yield of grafts from your donor area, in those individuals who have smaller balding areas, we can now use very small needles to place more grafts closer together. Up to twice as many grafts can be placed into a small area when the grafts are properly trimmed and small needles are used. In addition, higher graft density produces higher hair density and greater fullness. We fully expect that densely packed grafts will have the same growth rate as those grafts transplanted in sparsely packed patterns.
With the above in mind, we have changed our pricing, for traditional strip surgery, to produce better value for our patients. We are leveraging higher graft numbers with a discount that encourages our patients to take advantage of (1) more grafts per session and (2) higher densities. The discount program is as follows:

Program RatesCost per graftAdditional grafts
Rassman Fees$10/graftAbove 1800 @ $4.00/graft
Standard Fees$6/graftAbove 2500 @ $2.50/graft
Standby Fees$5/graftAbove 2500 @ $2.50/graft


Travel reimbursement and Open House coupons may be used provided that total fees do not drop below our $3,000.00 minimum surgical fee.
