Hair Transplants for Bury Patients with My Hair UK
Hair transplant costs for Bury patients depend on individual needs, and My Hair UK plans a permanent, natural-looking FUE result around your goals. We know that hair loss is about more than appearance, especially if you’re managing male pattern baldness, thinning hair, or a receding hairline.
Whether you’re based in Whitefield, Prestwich, Tottington or Ramsbottom, book a free consultation in clinic or by video call with our trichology team to receive a tailored treatment plan with a personalised quote to help restore your hair.
Why Choose A Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant is a long term decision, and it’s also the only clinical option that produces permanent regrowth where hair has been lost. The procedure relocates healthy follicles from the back and sides of the scalp (a donor zone that is genetically resistant to thinning), into the thinned or receded areas. Once those follicles take, they can continue to grow for life.
The Cost of a Hair Transplant in Bury
Hair transplant pricing for Bury patients is 5☆ all-inclusive, from £2,499 to £4,899, with GMC-registered surgeons at CQC-registered clinics and no hidden extras. Your price depends on the number of grafts you need, confirmed at a free consultation. The factors below explain what shapes it.
Our prices are the same at every My Hair UK clinic. See the hair transplant cost by graft count for prices by graft count, cost per graft and exactly what is included.
How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost in Bury?
A hair transplant is widely quoted at £3,000 to £7,000 by clinics across Greater Manchester. At My Hair UK the price is fixed, from £2,499 for 500 grafts to £4,899 for 3,500 grafts, and it is the same for Bury patients as everywhere else in the UK, because we price by graft count rather than by city. The table below sets both side by side.
| Grafts | My Hair UK Price | Widely quoted locally | Typical case |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500 grafts | £2,499 | £3,000 to £3,500 | Minor temple points or a hairline touch-up |
| 1,000 grafts | £2,899 | £4,000 to £4,500 | Temple recession or a small crown patch |
| 1,500 grafts | £3,299 | £4,500 to £5,500 | An early receding hairline and temples |
| 2,000 grafts | £3,699 | £5,500 to £6,000 | Midsized hairline and temple restoration |
| 2,500 grafts | £4,099 | £6,000 to £6,500 | Comprehensive hairline plus mid-scalp |
| 3,000 grafts | £4,499 | £6,500 to £7,000 | Extensive frontal and mid-scalp |
| 3,500 grafts | £4,899 | Rarely offered in one session | Our maximum in a single session |
| 4,000 grafts | £7,398 total | £9,500 to £10,000 | Extensive loss, planned across two sessions |
| 5,000 grafts | £8,198 total | £11,000 to £12,000 | Advanced loss, front and crown, two sessions |
| 6,000 grafts | £8,998 total | £12,000 or more | Our largest planned restoration, two sessions |
Comparison figures are published prices from clinics operating in Greater Manchester, collected August 2026. They are shown for context and are not our quotes. Our price includes the consultation, the surgeon-led procedure, post-operative medication, your aftercare kit and in-person follow-up, with nothing added on the day.
Rows up to 3,500 grafts are a single session, and 3,500 is our maximum in one sitting. Anything above that is planned as two sessions at least six months apart to protect the donor area, so the prices shown for 4,000 grafts and above are the combined total for both.

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
Your Norwood scale stage (the clinical grading of male pattern baldness) drives the graft count. Early recession at the temples needs fewer grafts than a Norwood VI with extensive crown loss. A consultation includes a donor-area density check to confirm how many grafts are realistically available. This is a detail some clinics skip.
Hair Type and Texture
The team has experience with all hair types and textures. Coarser hair gives better hair transplant coverage per graft than fine hair, so a patient with thick hair may need fewer grafts for the same visual density. Afro-textured and curly hair require surgeons with specific experience, as follicle shape and curl angle affect extraction technique. We’ll discuss this at 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.
How Many Grafts Will I Need?
Graft count is what sets your price, and it follows your stage of hair loss on the Norwood scale. These are guide figures; your own number is confirmed at a free in-person consultation with the surgeon who would carry out your procedure.
| Norwood stage | Typical pattern | Grafts usually needed | Typical cost with My Hair UK |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Slight recession, no visible thinning | Often none; up to 1,000 if suitable | Monitoring or medication first |
| Stage 2 | Temple recession, mature hairline | 1,000 to 1,500 | £2,899 to £3,299 |
| Stage 3 | Deeper recession at the temples | 2,000 to 2,500 | £3,699 to £4,099 |
| Stage 3 vertex | Recession plus thinning at the crown | 2,500 to 3,500 | £4,099 to £4,899 |
| Stage 4 | Significant frontal loss, larger crown | 3,000 to 4,000 | £4,499 to £4,899, may need two |
| Stage 5 | Front and crown grow, band narrows | 4,000 to 5,000, often two sessions | £4,899 to £8,198 |
| Stage 6 | One large area of loss | 5,000 to 6,000, two sessions | £8,198 to £8,998 in total |
| Stage 7 | Only a horseshoe at back and sides | Demand exceeds donor supply | Usually not suitable |
The honest constraint behind these figures is your donor area, which can typically supply 6,000 to 7,000 grafts across a lifetime. That is why we cap a single session at 3,500 grafts, and why advanced loss cannot always be fully restored. For every session size, cost per graft and a full breakdown of what is included, see our UK hair transplant cost guide.
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
The UK has no shortage of hair transplant clinics. Here’s what separates My Hair UK from the rest:

• Clear, all-inclusive pricing. The tier package you’re placed in covers the hair transplant consultation, surgery and aftercare. No hidden costs, and nothing extra appears on surgery day.
• You meet your surgeon before surgery. Unlike many Turkey clinics (and a number of UK providers), you’ll know who is operating on you at consultation, and you’ll see the same surgeon again on the day.

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 technical explainer.

The Hair Transplant Procedure for Bury Patients
The FUE hair transplant runs under local anaesthetic. You stay awake throughout, but you won’t feel the extraction or placement. Individual follicles are taken from the back and sides of the scalp, where hair is genetically resistant to thinning, and placed into the areas that have thinned or receded.
How it runs:
1. Consultation: the hair loss is assessed in person, your goals are talked through, and a graft count and treatment plan are agreed. You’ll meet the surgeon who will perform your procedure.
2. Preparation: on the day, you’re welcomed in and settled. The donor area is trimmed and local anaesthetic is administered. The procedure itself is comfortable, but plan on being at the clinic for the full day.
3. Extraction and placement: follicles are extracted one at a time and placed into the recipient area at matching angles and densities. The graft count sets the surgical time, typically 5 to 8 hours.
4. Recovery: you leave with full aftercare instructions in hand. Most patients are back at desk-based work within a week, more physical work can resume after 2 weeks, and full results build over 9 to 12 months.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What’s the price of a hair transplant in Bury?
For Bury patients, hair transplant costs run from £2,499 to £4,899, 5☆ all-inclusive, covering GMC-registered surgeons and CQC-registered clinics with no hidden extras. The number of grafts you need determines your price, confirmed at a free consultation.
2. Does a hair transplant hurt?
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.
3. When will I see results?
The transplanted hair sheds at week 2 to 3. This is normal and expected. New growth starts around month 3, thickening is visible by 6 months, and the full result comes through at 9 to 12 months.
4. How long before I can return to work or exercise?
You can usually go back to desk-based work inside a week. Keep away from exercise and the gym for 2 weeks. Contact sports need more time. Your post-op briefing gives you a specific timeline.
5. How many grafts will I 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 many hours does a hair transplant take?
The procedure runs 5 to 8 hours in most cases, driven by graft count. Allow a full day at the clinic once you factor in preparation and the post-procedure briefing.
7. What’s the difference between FUE and FUT?
FUE removes follicles one at a time. There’s no linear scar, recovery is quicker, and short haircuts are fine afterwards. FUT takes a strip of scalp from the donor area and leaves a linear scar. Only FUE is offered at the clinics; the recovery and aesthetic outcome are better for most patients.
8. Is an unshaven hair transplant possible?
Yes, for smaller cases. An unshaven or partially shaven FUE works where the donor area can be reached without fully shaving the head. It adds time and isn’t right for every case. The surgeon decides at consultation. More detail in our unshaven FUE guide.
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 where transplanted hair comes from article explains more.
10. What age can I have a hair transplant?
In the UK, you must be at least 18 to have a hair transplant legally. That said, careful thought is needed for patients in their late teens and early to mid 20s, where hair loss patterns often haven’t stabilised. Patients in this age range can be more likely to need additional surgery in the future as further loss develops.
