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 can keep growing for the rest of your life.
The Cost of a Hair Transplant in Redditch
At My Hair UK, hair transplant pricing is transparent and set out clearly upfront. Packages run from £2,499 to £4,899, with most Redditch patients paying between £3,500 and £4,500 once they’ve had a consultation and a graft count estimate. The exact tier depends on your graft count, which is determined by the extent of your hair loss, your hair type, and the result you’re aiming for. The factors below explain what shapes the cost.

Factors Affecting Hair Transplant Costs
Number of Grafts Needed
Graft count is the main factor that determines the cost. Our packages run from 500 to 3,500 grafts, with most patients needing 1,500–3,000. A minor restoration of the front hairline or temples may be 1,000–1,500 grafts, while a large crown section typically needs 2,500–3,000. Higher graft counts extend the surgical day and move you into a higher 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.
Hair Type and Texture
Whatever your hair type or texture, the surgical team has worked with it before. Coarser hair provides better hair transplant coverage per graft than fine hair, which means thick-haired patients can often hit the same visual density with a lower graft count. Afro-textured and curly hair needs surgeons with specific experience. Follicle shape and curl angle change how extraction is performed.
Surgeon Expertise
The surgeon you choose makes a meaningful difference. Each of the surgeons is GMC-registered and has personally performed over 1,000 FUE hair transplant procedures. That’s per surgeon, not a combined total 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.
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 are plenty of hair transplant clinics in the UK. Here’s what makes My Hair UK different:
• Regulated UK medical standards. GMC-registered surgeons, CQC-registered clinics. Every surgeon is listed on the GMC register and personally accountable for their work.
• Transparent, all-inclusive pricing. The tier package you sit in covers your hair transplant consultation, surgery, and aftercare. No hidden costs and no surgery-day add-ons.
• You meet your surgeon before surgery. Unlike many Turkey clinics (and some UK providers), you’ll know who is performing your procedure at consultation, and you’ll see them again on the day.
• Straightforward travel from Redditch. Redditch to Manchester is around 2 hours by train via Birmingham New Street to Manchester Piccadilly; London is around 2 hours by train via Birmingham New Street to London Euston, 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 in the donor area that heal quickly and aren’t visible under normal-length hair. FUT (strip surgery) leaves a visible line.
• Faster recovery. No stitches, no sutures to remove. Most patients can return to desk-based work within a week.
• Precision for hairlines. Individual follicle placement allows surgeons to replicate the natural single-hair density at the front hairline. Strip surgery cannot match this as reliably.
• Suitable for shorter hairstyles. Because there’s no linear scar, FUE patients can wear their hair short without scar exposure.
For technical depth on the procedure, see our guide on how FUE works.

The Hair Transplant Procedure for Redditch Patients
The FUE hair transplant is performed under local anaesthetic. You’ll be awake, 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 areas where hair has thinned or receded.
The process:
1. Consultation: your hair loss is assessed in person, your goals are discussed, and a graft count and treatment plan are agreed. You’ll meet the surgeon who will perform your procedure.
2. Preparation: on surgery day, you’re settled in. The donor area is trimmed and local anaesthetic is administered. The procedure is comfortable, though you should expect a full day at the clinic.
3. Extraction and placement: follicles are extracted one at a time and placed into the recipient area at matching angles and densities. The number of grafts determines the surgical time, typically 5 to 8 hours.
4. Recovery: recovery is supported by detailed aftercare instructions before you leave. Most patients can return to desk-based work within a week, with more physical work back on the table after 2 weeks. Full results develop over 9 to 12 months.

Most Redditch patients choose whichever clinic fits their diary rather than paying a premium for a Harley Street clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What does a hair transplant cost for Redditch patients?
My Hair UK’s tiered packages range from £2,499 to £4,899. A typical Redditch case sits around £3,500 to £4,500 once graft count is confirmed at consultation. The package you need depends mainly on how many grafts are required. See our full transplant surgery cost guide for the packages.
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. What graft count will I need?
Our packages cover 500 to 3,500 grafts, though most patients fall in the 1,500–3,000 range. A small crown patch or temple recession might be 800-1,200 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 is the hair transplant surgery itself?
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. Do you offer beard transplants?
Yes. A beard transplant uses the same FUE technique as a scalp procedure. Donor follicles come from the back and sides of the scalp and go into the beard zone. See our beard restoration for more detail.
8. How long does a hair transplant last?
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 guide on transplant longevity for the detail.
9. How do I travel to your clinic from Redditch?
Redditch to Manchester is around 2 hours by train via Birmingham New Street to Manchester Piccadilly; to London it’s around 2 hours by train via Birmingham New Street to London Euston, then the Underground to Kenton. See the Travel section above for the full train and car routes to both clinics.
10. What medication will I be given after surgery?
You’ll typically leave with a short course of antibiotics, anti-inflammatories and painkillers for the first few days. Longer-term, some patients continue on finasteride or minoxidil to preserve the hair that hasn’t been transplanted. Our medication after a hair transplant guide covers the detail.
