Hair Transplant Price Malaysia

How much does a hair transplant procedure cost in Malaysia?

The average cost for hair transplant in Malaysia is about USD 2.5 per graft, i.e. if you are going for 1000 grafts, it will cost you USD 2.5 x 1000 = USD 2,500.

The number of hair grafts will depend on the size of the area to be transplanted (as shown in the diagram below) as well as the required density.

Editor's Note:

Please take note that there is a difference between 'cost per graft' and 'cost per hair'. One graft may have 2 - 3 hairs. Some clinics may quote you on a per hair basis. Beware of the difference.

Another important point is that everybody seems to be comparing prices on 'cost per graft'. However, much more important than the price of each graft, is the actual survival rate of the grafts implanted. Do enquire about the 'success rate'.

Your hair grafts are a finite resource. You only have a certain number on the back and sides of your head, and any grafts that don’t survive are essentially gone.


Hair Transplant Surgery Singapore Price

The average cost for hair transplant in Singapore is about USD 3.7 per graft depending on the following factors:
  • Consultation and hair assessment: USD 37
  • Hair transplant surgery: depends on price per graft (average USD 3.7/graft) and the total number of grafts (average 2000 grafts for scalp)
  • Recovery medications: USD 40 - 50 depending on types of medications, painkillers needed
  • Medical review (after transplant surgery): USD 40/ session
Do note that some might require a second hair transplant for better results if there is a large area of baldness.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Hair Transplant Singapore

FUE hair transplant, or follicular unit extraction hair transplant, is a minimally invasive method used to harvest and transplant hair. Although the word 'transplant' normally refers to major hospital procedures, hair transplant is normally performed as an out-patient procedure. The treatment removes individual follicular units directly from your scalp, which are then replanted into the required site of the scalp. At the moment, this is one of the most popular technique for hair transplant.

Based on the average number of 2000 hair grafts and the average price per graft of $3.7 USD.

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) Hair Transplant

The price of FUT hair transplant surgery in Singapore ranges from USD 6,000 to USD 7,000.
Compared to FUE hair transplant, FUT is a higher risk procedure that requires more tedious steps.

The FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) procedure involves cutting a strip of the patient’s scalp off, before proceeding to harvest the individual hair grafts before transplant.

The bare area is usually then sewn up together to prevent the bald patch from being seen.


Hair Transplant Thailand Cost

Cost of Hair transplant in Thailand USD 2.25 per graft. Cost ranges from 3000 USD to 7000 USD in comparison to UK and USA the same procedure costs about 7,000 USD- 15,000 USD.

Zinc Gluconate vs Zinc Picolinate: What's the Difference?

By
Image
Zinc picolinate and zinc gluconate are forms of dietary supplements that we use to prevent zinc deficiency.  Zinc  is an essential mineral that our body can easily absorb. Therefore, if we do not get enough amount of zinc, we may have to take these dietary supplements as directed by the doctor. When choosing a zinc supplement, it’s important to consider the type of zinc, dosage, and supplement form. Types of Zinc Supplements   There are several types of zinc supplements. Supplements contain several forms of zinc, including zinc gluconate, zinc citrate and zinc picolinate. The percentage of elemental zinc varies by form.  Chelated zinc is a general form of supplementary zinc in which the zinc is chelated — or bound — to a compound to make it easier for the body to absorb. Zinc picolinate or zinc gluconate are formed when zinc is chelated to picolinic acid or gluconic acid, so the main dif

Dr. Zelenko's Z-Stack Vitamin Cocktail: Review 2024

By
Image
The  Zelenko COVID-19 Protocols  was developed by Dr Vladimir Zelenko. The protocol has as its centerpiece, but not exclusive piece, the combined use of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Zinc as a means by which a person can both help to prevent or mitigate the contraction of  COVID-19 , or can actually treat the disease once it has been diagnosed.  A  retrospective study  analyzing Dr Zelenko's patient data was accepted for publication after a rigorous peer review process. The study finds that early intervention and treatment of high-risk patients with COVID-19 resulted in significantly fewer hospitalizations and deaths. The treatment consisting of zinc, low-dose hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), and azithromycin, is also referred to as "The Zelenko Protocol." Dr Zelenko has since updated his protocols to incorporate new evidence. He has since evolved his protocols to include a quercetin, zinc, vitamin D and C protocol for low-risk patients as w

18 Best Supplements to Reduce Cytokine Storm: Advanced Guide (2023 Review)

By
Image
As of November 2023, there are more than 3,000 early treatment studies  that have been published and shared with the whole world. New ones are being added every day.  This is a review of the literature, covering multiple observational studies, randomized controlled trials and references related to natural supplements and cytokine storm with more than 300 studies and references. We know that while a large percentage of the population only experiences mild to moderate symptoms of COVID-19 and won’t require hospitalization, others experience severe symptoms and complications, require hospitalization, or may even die.  It appears one of the differences between those who have a mild illness and severe illness is related to the body's ability to reduce the hyperimmune response that leads to a cytokine storm and the hyper-coagulability (tendency for blood clots) that often accompanies it. The cytokine storm may be one possible way to explain

10 Best NMN Supplements (2024 Review)

By

NMN stands for nicotinamide mononucleotide and is a precursor to NAD+, or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. NMN is the direct precursor of the essential molecule nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and is considered a key component to increase NAD+ levels in cells. NAD+ is a critical molecule found in every cell of your body, but levels of NAD+ naturally fall with age, making it — and NMN, as a result — crucial. NMN is one of the most popular supplements in the anti aging community. The global Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN) market was valued at US$ 98.5 million in 2019 and it is expected to reach US$ 296.5 million ( R ) by the end of 2026, growing at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 7.3% during 2021-2026. The NAD story took off toward the end of 2013 with a  high-profile paper  by Harvard's David Sinclair and colleagues. Sinclair, recall, achieved fame in the mid-2000s for research on yeast and mice that suggested the red wine ingredient resvera

Glutathione vs NAC: What's the Difference? (2024)

What's the difference between glutathione and NAC? Which is the superior choice? Liposomal glutathione vs NAC? We will cover the essentials and explain about each of these nutrients below.  NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) N-acetyl L-cysteine (NAC) is a precursor of glutathione, helps to replenish intracellular glutathione, a vital cellular antioxidant .  Cysteine is a semi-essential amino acid. It’s considered semi-essential because your body can produce it from other amino acids, namely methionine and serine. It becomes essential only when the dietary intake of methionine and serine is low. There is no specific dietary recommendation for cysteine because your body can produce small amounts. For your body to make the amino acid cysteine, you need adequate amounts of folate, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12. These nutrients can be found in beans, lentils, spinach, bananas, salmon and tuna. While most protein-rich foods, such as chicken, turkey, yogurt, cheese, eggs, sunflower seeds and legumes, c

Phytonutrients, Polyphenols and Flavonoids 101: What You Need to Know (2024)

By

Besides nutrients, plant-based foods (legumes, vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and teas as well as herbs and spices) have another “crop” of naturally occurring compounds with potential health benefits. Collectively they’re called phytonutrients, meaning plant chemicals. “Phyto” means plant. Think fight for “phytos,” since they appear to promote health by sparking body processes that fight, or slow, the development of some diseases. Phytonutrients comprise many different chemicals, including carotenoids, indoles, glucosinolates, organosulfur compounds, phytosterols, polyphenols, and saponins.  Why have phytonutrients captured our attention? Because of their potential for health promotion! Today consumers are more interested in positive nutrition and self-care: adding (not avoiding) foods that may enhance fitness, boost immunity, slow aging, and prevent or slow the chance for chronic disease. Sound like you? Research on phytonutrients is the new frontier in nutrition, as e
