Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

FUE is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual follicular units (1-4 hairs) are extracted directly from the donor area using micro punches (0.7-1.0mm). The follicles are then implanted into recipient sites in balding areas. This method leaves tiny, barely visible scars and allows for faster healing compared to strip harvesting methods.
Per Procedure$12,050
Per Graft$6
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

FUT involves removing a strip of hair-bearing scalp from the donor area (usually the back of the head), which is then dissected under microscopes into individual follicular units. These units are transplanted into the recipient area. This method typically yields more grafts in a single session but leaves a linear scar.
Per Procedure$9,650
Per Graft$4.8
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP involves drawing the patient's blood, processing it to concentrate platelets, and injecting the platelet-rich plasma into areas of hair loss. Growth factors in platelets can stimulate dormant follicles, improve hair thickness, and slow hair loss progression. Multiple sessions are typically required.
Per Session$800
Hair Loss Prevention Programs

Hair Loss Prevention Programs

Customized programs combining medical treatments, supplements, lifestyle modifications, and regular monitoring for patients in early stages of hair loss. Focus on prevention rather than restoration.
Monthly$151
Robotic Hair Transplant

Robotic Hair Transplant

Robotic systems use artificial intelligence and advanced imaging to identify and extract the best donor follicles with minimal human error. The ARTAS system creates 3D models of the scalp and calculates optimal extraction patterns, while NeoGraft automates the FUE process for consistent results.
Per Procedure$18,050
Per Graft$9

Dr. Chaffoo isn’t just a great doctor — he’s a miracle worker! From the very first consultation, I knew I was in the best hands. With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Chaffoo is one of the top surgeons in the industry, and it absolutely shows in every detail of his work and the way he treats his patients. He’s honest, compassionate, and incredibly hands-on. He doesn’t just perform surgery — he guides you through the entire process with genuine care and expertise. He told me exactly what to expect, never made false promises, and always made sure I was informed and comfortable. No pushing for extra procedures, no pressure — just pure professionalism and integrity. What truly blew me away was his level of dedication. I could reach him anytime, day or night — yes, even through video call! After my surgery, he personally made sure I was okay, walked me to my car, and stayed in touch for every step of recovery. It felt like I had a personal doctor on-call 24/7, which is so rare these days. He’s not just experienced — he’s gifted. And on top of that, his warm, charismatic personality makes you feel like you’ve known him forever. I wouldn’t trust anyone else. If you want someone who actually cares, delivers real results, and has the expertise of a world-class surgeon, Dr. Chaffoo is the one. 10 stars if I could

Absolutely blown away by my experience with Dr. Chaffoo and his incredible team! From the very first consultation, it was clear I was in the best hands. Dr. Chaffoo and his staff are not only extremely knowledgeable, but also incredibly supportive and genuinely kind. They took the time to answer all of my questions, walk me through the entire process, and make sure I felt completely comfortable every step of the way. The surgery itself was smooth and professionally handled from start to finish. I opted for FUE, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Recovery was surprisingly quick and far easier than I expected—another testament to their expertise and personalized care. If you’re considering a hair transplant, look no further. I give Dr. Chaffoo and his team 10 out of 5 stars. Highly, highly recommend!

I consulted Dr. Chaffoo for my hair treatment and I am very much satisfied with the results even after 2 years. Dr. Chaffoo and his team were professional, kind and informative. They cleared all my doubts and made me feel comfortable through out the process. They are approachable even now and they keep me informed about the latest developments. I thank them for all the support and strongly recommend them.
