Graft Count and Pricing
Hair transplant clinics in Dubai price either per graft or as a flat package. Per-graft pricing ranges from AED 3–10 per graft depending on the technique and clinic. A typical Norwood 3–4 pattern requires 2,000–3,500 grafts. At AED 5/graft for FUE, that translates to AED 10,000–17,500. Package pricing (e.g., 'up to 3,000 grafts for AED 15,000') is common and often better value. Always confirm the quote includes anaesthesia, post-op care kit, and follow-up consultations.
FUE vs DHI vs FUT
FUE is the global standard — individual follicles are extracted from the donor area using a micro-punch (0.7–1.0mm) and implanted into recipient sites. Recovery is 7–10 days with minimal scarring. DHI uses a Choi implanter pen to simultaneously create the channel and place the graft, allowing denser packing and potentially faster healing. FUT (strip method) removes a strip of skin from the back of the head, dissects individual grafts, and implants them. It leaves a linear scar but allows harvesting more grafts in a single session. FUT is less popular in Dubai due to the visible scar.
