Frequently Asked Questions
Are hair transplant results permanent?
Yes — transplanted hair follicles are taken from areas genetically resistant to balding. The transplanted hair grows permanently. However, existing non-transplanted hair may continue to thin, so some patients need additional procedures.
How long does it take to see hair transplant results?
Transplanted hair falls out at 2-4 weeks (normal), then new growth begins at 3-4 months. Noticeable results appear at 6-9 months, with full results at 12-18 months.
Why does hair transplant cost different in Tampa than other cities?
Tampa's costs reflect local labor rates driven by the finance-healthcare-tourism economy, tropical climate conditions that affect materials and scheduling, and strict permitting requirements. The competitive labor market also influences competitive pricing.
