Hair Transplants for Sittingbourne Patients with My Hair UK
Hair transplant costs for Sittingbourne patients depend on individual needs, and My Hair UK plans a permanent, natural-looking FUE result around your goals. Hair loss can affect more than your appearance, so whether you’re noticing male pattern baldness, thinning hair, or a receding hairline, we can help restore what was lost.
Whether you’re in Milton Regis, Kemsley, Murston or Borden, book a free consultation in-person or by video call with our trichology team to receive a tailored treatment plan with a personalised quote.
Why Choose A Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant is a meaningful 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 grow for the rest of your life.
The Cost of a Hair Transplant in Sittingbourne
Hair transplant costs for Sittingbourne patients start at £2,499 and reach £4,899, 5☆ all-inclusive, with GMC-registered surgeons at CQC-registered clinics and no hidden extras. The number of grafts you need sets your price, confirmed at a free consultation. Below, we explain what shapes it.
The prices above are fixed and identical across all our clinics. Compare every session size in the UK hair transplant cost guide.
How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost in Sittingbourne?
A hair transplant is widely quoted at £3,000 to £8,000 by clinics across London and the South East. 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 Sittingbourne 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 £4,900 | Temple recession or a small crown patch |
| 1,500 grafts | £3,299 | £4,500 to £5,900 | 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 £6,900 | Comprehensive hairline plus mid-scalp |
| 3,000 grafts | £4,499 | £6,500 to £7,900 | Extensive frontal and mid-scalp |
| 3,500 grafts | £4,899 | £7,900 | Our maximum in a single session |
| 4,000 grafts | £7,398 total | £8,900 to £9,900 | Extensive loss, planned across two sessions |
| 5,000 grafts | £8,198 total | £10,900 to £11,900 | Advanced loss, front and crown, two sessions |
| 6,000 grafts | £8,998 total | £10,900 to £11,900 | Our largest planned restoration, two sessions |
Comparison figures are published prices from clinics operating in London and the South East, 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 priced 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
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.
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.
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.

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 is all-inclusive: one figure covers consultation, surgery and every aftercare touchpoint, with nothing extra on the day. Your tier package covers every stage of treatment, with no consultation fee. Here’s what the price covers:
• Initial consultation: a specialist reviews your hair loss, works through your medical history and maps out 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 guidance, follow-up appointments and a direct line to the clinic if anything comes up while you recover
• Named GMC-registered surgeon: you will know who is performing your procedure before surgery 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 how FUE transplants work article.

The Hair Transplant Procedure for Sittingbourne 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 12 months.
Clinic Locations and Travel From Sittingbourne
The London (Harrow) clinic is the closest to Sittingbourne: the clinic is around 1 hour 30 minutes from Sittingbourne by direct Southeastern High Speed train from Sittingbourne to London St Pancras, then around 35 minutes on the Underground via the Bakerloo line to Kenton.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How much does a hair transplant cost in Sittingbourne?
For Sittingbourne patients, a hair transplant costs £2,499 to £4,899, 5☆ all-inclusive, with GMC-registered surgeons at CQC-registered clinics and nothing added on the day. The exact price depends on your graft count, which a surgeon confirms at a free consultation.
2. Does a hair transplant hurt?
Not during surgery. FUE is done under local anaesthetic. You stay awake but don’t feel the extraction or placement. Most patients describe it as a long but comfortable day.
3. How soon 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 soon can I return to work and exercise?
Most patients return to desk-based work within a week. Exercise and gym should be avoided for 2 weeks. Contact sports should be avoided for longer. We’ll give you a specific timeline during your post-op briefing.
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 long does the procedure 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. Are hair transplants suitable for women?
Yes. Female pattern hair loss responds to FUE in selected cases. FUE works particularly well for hairline lowering, scar concealment, and diffuse thinning where the donor area is viable. We can walk through case examples at consultation.
8. Is the result permanent?
Yes. The donor hair from the back and sides of the scalp is genetically resistant to thinning, so once those follicles are transplanted they can keep growing for life. See our guide on hair transplant longevity for a fuller breakdown.
9. What’s the travel route from Sittingbourne to the clinic?
Sittingbourne to Manchester is around 4 hours via St Pancras, walking to Euston, then Avanti to Manchester Piccadilly; to London it’s around 1 hour 30 minutes by direct Southeastern High Speed train to London St Pancras, then the Underground to Kenton. See the Travel section above for the full train and car routes to both clinics.
10. What medication do I need after a hair transplant?
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 guide on post-transplant medication covers the detail.
