Frequently Asked Questions About Hair Loss
Hair Restoration Cost FAQs
How much is a hair transplant in Turkey?
Typically less than you would pay in the United States, but you must consider:
- The techniques used in Turkey frequently result in overharvesting at the donor site and excessive density at the transplant site for unnatural-looking outcomes.
- Follow-up care is incredibly limited when you choose an overseas practice.
- There is a reason why corrective procedures are becoming higher in demand here in the United States.
How much is a hair transplant in the USA?
It depends primarily on the extent of treatment. On average, a single hair transplant session will cost between $5,000 and $15,000. FUE is more expensive per graft than FUT due to the complexity of the process, but FUE can result in less scarring and a more natural-looking outcome. Discounts, seasonal promotions, and low-interest financing make hair restoration by Dr. Robert J. Dorin rewarding and affordable.
Hair Restoration Process & Results FAQs
What is involved in a hair transplant?
In simplest terms, viable hair follicles are harvested from an area of abundance (such as the back of the scalp) and implanted in areas of thinning hair. FUT involves extracting strips of tissue from which follicles are then harvested; FUE involves extracting individual follicles.
Do hair transplants really work?
When the right candidates undergo the procedure by a qualified surgeon, the results can be excellent. It's important to note that the natural aging process will continue to affect your scalp. Some patients choose to maintain their results with meds such as finasteride, or undergo touch-up procedures to address any subsequent thinning.

Causes of Hair Loss
What causes hair loss?
Medical conditions, hormonal changes, genetics, hair care habits (like aggressively drying your hair with a towel), and lifestyle choices can all lead to hair loss. We will identify the cause of your hair loss in order to recommend the best restoration method during your consultation in NYC.
Does creatine cause hair loss?
In 2009, a study reported a rise in DHT levels following creatine supplementation, which sparked concerns that creatine might contribute to hair loss. However, subsequent studies have failed to replicate these findings, and there is currently no scientific evidence confirming a connection between hair loss and creatine use. In fact, subsequent studies have found evidence against this notion.
Does Ozempic® cause hair loss?
The drug itself does not cause hair loss. However, the rapid weight loss it causes can cause telogen effluvium (excessive hair shedding). The good news is that hair typically begins to grow back several weeks or months after this occurs.
Which vitamin deficiency causes hair loss?
There are several. Deficiencies in vitamin D, vitamin B12, folate, and riboflavin can all cause you to lose hair. Deficiencies in iron, zinc, and biotin have also been linked to hair loss.
How can I prevent hair loss?
Some types of hair loss, like male pattern baldness, can't be prevented. However, you can minimize your risk of preventable hair loss by making your health a priority, managing stress in healthy ways, and abstaining from nicotine. Tight hairstyles and harsh treatments can damage follicles over time, so it's best to avoid them.
