Hair Transplants for Wokingham Patients with My Hair UK
Hair transplant costs for Wokingham 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 Emmbrook, Woosehill, Norreys or Wescott, 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?
Choosing a hair transplant is a significant step, and it’s the only clinical treatment that produces permanent regrowth in areas where hair has been lost. A hair transplant works by relocating healthy follicles from the back and sides of the scalp, which are genetically resistant to thinning, to the areas that need coverage. Once those follicles establish, they can grow for the rest of your life.
The Cost of a Hair Transplant in Wokingham
Hair transplant pricing for Wokingham 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.
The prices above are fixed and identical across all our clinics. Compare every session size in the hair transplant costs in the UK.
How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost in Wokingham?
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 Wokingham 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
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.
Extent of Hair Loss
Your graft count is driven by where you sit on the Norwood scale, the standard clinical grading for male pattern baldness. Early recession at the temples requires far fewer grafts than a Norwood VI with widespread crown loss. Consultation includes a donor-area density assessment to confirm how many grafts can realistically be harvested.
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
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.
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 in the donor area that heal quickly and aren’t visible under normal-length hair. FUT (strip surgery) leaves a visible line across the back of the head.
• Faster recovery. There are no stitches and no sutures to come out. Desk-based work is usually fine within a week.
• Precision for hairlines. Placing follicles individually lets surgeons replicate the natural single-hair density at the front hairline. Strip surgery struggles to match this consistently.
• Suitable for shorter hairstyles. With no linear scar, FUE patients can wear their hair short without exposing a scar line.
For more in-depth information, see our FUE hair transplant guide.

The Hair Transplant Procedure for Wokingham 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 process:
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.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What’s the price of a hair transplant in Wokingham?
For Wokingham 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. How painful is a hair transplant?
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?
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 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. How do FUE and FUT compare?
FUE takes follicles individually. There’s no linear scar, faster recovery, and it suits shorter hairstyles. FUT removes a whole strip of scalp from the donor area and leaves a linear scar. The clinics only run FUE because for most patients the recovery and results are both better.
8. What medication will I be given after surgery?
You’ll usually get a short course of antibiotics, anti-inflammatories and painkillers for the first few days. Some patients stay on finasteride or minoxidil long-term to protect the hair that wasn’t transplanted. Dosing and timing are covered in our medication after a hair transplant guide.
9. Where is transplant hair taken from?
From your own scalp: the back and sides, which are genetically resistant to thinning. That’s the standard FUE donor zone. Our guide on the donor area covers the full picture.
