Why Choose A Hair Transplant?
For many patients, a hair transplant is the first lasting solution they’ve found, and it’s the only medical procedure that delivers permanent regrowth in balding or thinned areas. It works by moving healthy follicles from the back and sides of the scalp, where hair is genetically resistant to thinning, into the areas that need coverage. Once the transplanted follicles settle in, they keep growing for the rest of your life.
The Cost of a Hair Transplant in Brentwood
My Hair UK uses transparent pricing for hair transplants, with packages from £2,499 to £4,899 and no hidden extras. In practice, most Brentwood patients spend somewhere in the £3,500 to £4,500 range once a surgeon has reviewed their case and confirmed the graft count. Graft count itself reflects the extent of your hair loss, your hair type, and the result you have in mind. The factors below explain what shapes the price.

Factors Affecting Hair Transplant Costs
Number of Grafts Needed
The number of grafts you need is what determines the cost. Our packages run from 500 to 3,500 grafts, but most patients sit in the 1,500–3,000 range. A mid-level hairline restoration back to the central vertex may be 2,000–2,500 grafts; more significant hair loss might need 3,500+ grafts or surgery split across two sessions. More grafts mean a longer surgical day and a higher tier package.
Extent of Hair Loss
The Norwood scale stage you sit on (the clinical grading of male pattern baldness) determines the graft count you need. Early temple recession is a lower-graft case than a Norwood VI with significant crown loss. The consultation also includes a donor-area density check to confirm the realistic supply of grafts. This is a step some clinics miss.
Hair Type and Texture
The surgeons work with the full range of hair types and textures. Coarser hair delivers better hair transplant coverage per graft than fine hair, so a patient with thick hair can often reach the same visual density with fewer grafts. Afro-textured and curly hair call for surgeons with specific experience, because follicle shape and curl angle change the extraction technique. We’ll cover this in your consultation.
Surgeon Expertise
Choosing the right surgeon is one of the more important calls you’ll make. Every one of the clinics’ surgeons is GMC-registered and has personally completed more than 1,000 FUE hair transplant procedures. These figures are per surgeon, not added up across the whole team. Natural-looking results come from surgeon skill, not machines. How the hairline is designed, the angle each follicle sits at, and how the donor area is preserved all matter more than equipment. That’s why the surgical team places each graft by hand rather than using automated systems.
What to Expect at Your Consultation
Your hair transplant consultation is free and there is no obligation to book. It takes around 45 minutes and gives you the information you need to decide in your own time. Here’s what happens:
Medical history
We take a brief medical history: current medications, previous surgeries, conditions that affect healing, and whether you’ve already spoken to your GP about hair loss.
Scalp assessment
A specialist examines your scalp under magnification, grades your hair loss on the Norwood scale (for men) or Ludwig scale (for women), and checks the density of your donor area.
Goal discussion & plan
We talk through what you want a transplant to achieve. You’ll get a graft count estimate and a tier price based on the clinical assessment. There are no surprise add-ons on surgery day.
Meet the surgeon
You can meet the GMC-registered surgeon who would perform your procedure. They answer technical questions directly.
No pressure to decide
You’ll leave with a tailored treatment plan, a personalised quote, and time to think it over. Most patients take a few weeks before booking.
Why Choose My Hair UK
There is no shortage of hair transplant clinics in the UK. Here is what sets My Hair UK apart:
• Care held to regulated UK standards.GMC-registered surgeons, CQC-registered clinics. Every surgeon is on the GMC register and is personally accountable for their own cases.
• Up-front, all-inclusive pricing. Your tier package covers the hair transplant consultation, the surgery itself and aftercare. No hidden costs, and no surgery-day surprises.
• You meet your surgeon before surgery. Unlike many Turkey clinics (and some UK providers), you’ll know at consultation who will perform your procedure, and you’ll see that same surgeon again on the day.
• Specialist experience with Afro-textured and women’s hair. Follicle shape and curl angle drive the extraction technique used. The surgical team has specific experience in Afro-Caribbean hair transplants and women’s hair transplants.
• Straightforward travel from Brentwood. Brentwood to the London Harrow clinic is around 35 minutes to London Liverpool Street, then the Underground to Kenton. See the Travel section below for details.
Recovery and Results Timeline
Recovery is mostly straightforward, with detailed aftercare guidance from the team to lean on at each stage. It’s faster than older hair transplant techniques, though the final result still takes time. A summary is below:
• First 24 hours after: Expect mild swelling and tightness.
• Week 1: The donor and recipient areas scab naturally. No scratching, no heavy lifting.
• Weeks 2–3: Transplanted hair sheds. This is normal. The follicle stays in place while the shaft falls out before it regrows.
• Month 3: New growth emerges from the transplanted follicles.
• Month 6: Visible thickening.
• Months 9–12: Full density and final result.
More detail on each phase, including washing routines, sleeping advice, exercise limits and medication, lives in our detailed recovery guide.
What's Included In The Price?
Pricing at My Hair UK covers everything from your first consultation to your final follow-up, with no surprise costs and no surgery-day add-ons. The tier package you sit in covers every stage of your treatment, with no consultation fee. Here’s what’s included:
• Initial consultation: a specialist assesses your hair loss, reviews your medical history, and builds a tailored treatment plan
• FUE hair transplant: the surgery itself, including local anaesthetic, how the donor area is preserved, and follicle placement
• Post-operative aftercare: detailed recovery instructions, follow-up appointments, and a direct line to the clinic if you have concerns during recovery
• Named GMC-registered surgeon: you’ll know who is performing your procedure before the day
The Benefits of FUE Hair Transplants
• No linear scar. FUE leaves tiny individual marks across the donor area that heal quickly and aren’t visible under normal-length hair. FUT (strip surgery) leaves a single visible line.
• Faster recovery. There are no stitches or sutures to remove, and most patients are back at desk-based work within a week.
• Precision for hairlines. Placing follicles one at a time allows surgeons to recreate the natural single-hair density at the front hairline. Strip surgery cannot match this reliably.
• Suitable for shorter hairstyles. Because there is no linear scar, FUE patients can wear their hair short without showing a scar.
More on how the procedure runs in our FUE hair transplant guide.

The Hair Transplant Procedure for Brentwood Patients
The FUE hair transplant is carried out under local anaesthetic. You remain awake, but you won’t feel the extraction or placement. Individual follicles are removed from the back and sides of the scalp (genetically resistant to thinning) and placed into the thinned or receded areas.
The sequence:
1. Consultation: your hair loss is assessed in person, your goals are discussed, and a graft count and treatment plan are agreed. You meet the surgeon who will operate on you.
2. Preparation: on surgery day you’re settled in for the procedure. The donor area is trimmed and local anaesthetic is administered. The procedure is comfortable, but expect a full day at the clinic.
3. Extraction and placement: follicles are extracted one by one and placed into the recipient area at matching angles and densities. Surgical time is driven by graft count, typically 5 to 8 hours.
4. Recovery: you leave with detailed aftercare to support you through the early weeks. Desk-based work is usually fine within a week; more physical work should wait until the 2-week mark. The final result develops over 9 to 12 months.
Clinic Locations and Travel From Brentwood
The London (Harrow) clinic is the closest to Brentwood: around 35 minutes by train to London Liverpool Street from Brentwood or Shenfield. The Manchester clinic is also CQC-registered and available if that fits your diary better. Most Brentwood patients choose whichever clinic fits their diary rather than paying a postcode premium at a local-only London clinic.
So if you live in Shenfield, Hutton, Warley or South Weald, then leave behind the scenic views of Brentwood Cathedral and Thorndon Country Park and book a free consultation with our Trichology team either in-person or via video call to begin your hair restoration journey.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What does a hair transplant cost for Brentwood patients?
Tiered pricing at My Hair UK starts at £2,499 and goes to £4,899. A typical Brentwood case falls in the £3,500 to £4,500 range after consultation. The tier is determined by the number of grafts you need. See view pricing details for the price list.
2. Is a hair transplant painful?
It shouldn’t hurt. FUE runs under local anaesthetic, so you’re awake but you don’t feel the extraction or placement. Patients typically describe the day as long rather than painful. More in our is a hair transplant painful.
3. When will I see results?
Transplanted hair sheds at week 2 to 3. This is normal and expected. New hair begins to grow at around month 3. Visible thickening is typically noticeable at 6 months, with full results at 9 to 12 months.
4. How long before I can return to work or exercise?
Desk-based work is typically fine within a week. Leave the gym and general exercise for 2 weeks. Contact sports need longer. You’ll get a specific timeline in your post-op briefing.
5. How many grafts does a hair transplant need?
Graft counts in our packages run from 500 to 3,500, with most patients in the 1,500–3,000 band. A small temple restoration or crown patch might be 1,000-1,500 grafts. Restoring a full front hairline can need 3,000+ grafts. A specialist will confirm your graft count at consultation by grading your hair loss on the Norwood scale.
6. How long does the procedure take?
Surgery itself usually runs 5 to 8 hours, depending on graft count. Plan on being at the clinic for the full day, with preparation, surgery and post-procedure briefing all included.
7. Does a hair transplant last forever?
Yes. The follicles taken from the donor area (back and sides of the scalp) are genetically resistant to thinning. Once transplanted, they can continue to grow for the rest of your life. See our how long do hair transplants last guide for the detail.
8. What’s the travel route from Brentwood to the clinic?
Brentwood to Manchester is around 3 hours 45 minutes via London Liverpool Street and Euston; to London it’s around 35 minutes to London Liverpool Street, then the Underground to Kenton. See the Travel section above for the full train and car routes to both clinics.
9. Where is transplant hair taken from?
It comes from your own scalp, specifically the back and sides, which are genetically resistant to thinning. This is the standard donor zone for FUE. Our donor area explained explains why.
10. Is a UK hair transplant more expensive than Turkey?
Prices in the UK run slightly higher than in Turkey, but that gap has closed considerably in recent years. UK clinics also operate under tighter regulation, with surgeons on the GMC register and facilities CQC-registered, which gives patients additional protection. Our UK vs Turkey hair transplant cost page covers the full picture.
11. Do you offer beard transplants?
Yes. Beard transplants use the same FUE method as scalp work, with follicles taken from the back and sides of the scalp and placed into the beard. Full information on our beard transplant page.
12. Is the procedure suitable for Afro-textured hair?
Yes. Afro-textured and curly hair calls for a surgeon with specific experience. Follicle shape and curl angle change the extraction technique. The surgical team handles these cases regularly, and we can walk through the detail at consultation.
