When the doctor would perform surgeries of 200 grafts on four or five different patients every day the money would pile up quickly. With time, and the technological refinements of mini-micro grafting, the cost of each “graft” dropped dramatically but the number of grafts that were available in a single surgery rose just as dramatically. In the 1990’s the average cost per graft would be in the $5.00 to $10.00 range but the number of grafts possible rose to 1000 to 1500 grafts. When follicular unit grafting was introduced the pricing stayed much the same but the number of grafts available in a single session continued to climb. Eventually, competition brought about by the internet forced the average cost per graft to drop to being between $4.00 per graft and $6.00 per graft. This is where the average cost per gr

If you are looking for reviews on skin specialists (dermatologist) in Malaysia, this article was written with you in mind. Although dermatologist reviews are everywhere on the internet, we have tried to filter out those junks, 'salesy' and 'spammy' and one-liner reviews out there.
