For people seeking hair restoration, traditional hair transplant surgery has been available for a number of years. But hair transplantation is an invasive and complex process with relatively high costs. NeoGraft is a state-of-the-art technology to accomplish the restoration of hair in a completely automated and efficient way.   The NeoGraft provider will discuss various aspects of the procedure including its approximate costs during the initial consultation process. Accomplished board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Hisham Seify provides NeoGraft hair restoration to patients in Newport Beach, Orange County, CA, and surrounding locations in this region of America.

Price Tag Comparison with Traditional Hair Transplant

Traditional hair transplantation surgery comprises manual work and involves various drawbacks such as high procedure costs. Conversely, NeoGraft is less invasive and more efficient in comparison. Furthermore, this procedure is also more cost-effective. In a majority of cases, the overall NeoGraft costs could be less than the costs involved in traditional hair transplant surgery. The NeoGraft procedure also involves a shorter healing period as well as minimal downtime. This implies lesser time off from work for some individuals and additional cost-effectiveness of the procedure.

Variable Costs of NeoGraft

Some practices may do the computation of hair transplant costs on a per graft basis, which becomes the first variable. If one patient receives 1,500 grafts, while another receives 2,000 grafts, the total price tag of their procedures will vary proportionately. The determination of other variables such as the size of the head, hairline, and follicular density, and the patient’s personal goals can only be done during the consultation. Patients should understand that traditional Strip Harvest transplants may cost less than cutting-edge Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) transplants. But the lower costs of strip harvesting comes at the cost of a conspicuous scar, extended recovery period as well as other undesirable side effects.

Other Monetary Factors

The financial responsibilities of NeoGraft hair transplantation may vary between two practices and even between two patients at the same practice. The geographical location of the practice will impact the overall cost of the procedure. In main metropolitan cities and busy urban centers, the overhead and real estate costs are typically higher relative to smaller towns in remote locations. This affects the costs of products and services in the area, including the cost of hair transplantation procedures. Factors such as the training and qualifications of the plastic surgeon or specialist administering NeoGraft, quality standards of the practice, experience of the staff, and the type of equipment used will affect the cost of the procedure. It usually costs more to provide excellent quality standards and individualized care to each patient. Patients should carefully choose a well-qualified practitioner for administering an advanced procedure such as NeoGraft. The dollar amount of the procedure should only be a secondary consideration to factors such as quality standards and safety protocols of a specific practice.

Insurance and Financing

Procedures such NeoGraft are elective and administered only for cosmetic reasons. This means that the patient’s insurance provider will not offer coverage for such procedures. But patients can utilize various financing options from professional medical care financing companies to fund the procedure. Accomplished cosmetic surgeon Dr. Hisham Seify receives patients from Newport Beach, Orange County, CA, and other cities and towns in this area of California for NeoGraft hair restoration.

Financial Considerations for a Mommy Makeover

Mommy makeover plastic surgery is a major procedure involving two or more surgeries performed together. Therefore, the cost of a mommy makeover will usually be higher compared to a single cosmetic surgery procedure. As an experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Hisham Seify discusses the estimated costs of the procedure with his patients in Newport Beach, Orange County, CA, and other areas during the initial consultation.

Cost Variations

A mommy makeover procedure is highly customizable and the type and number of surgeries can be decided according to the individual needs of a patient. Therefore, the cost of this procedure can vary from one patient to another even when it is performed by the same cosmetic surgeon. If a patient requires significant improvements in the physical appearance and is a fit candidate for multiple procedures, the surgeon may include tummy tuck, breast implants, liposuction or other procedures as a part of the mommy makeover plastic surgery. The cost will be determined in proportion to the nature and extent of the procedures performed.

Cost-effectiveness

In some ways, a mommy makeover procedure is more cost-effective when compared to the cost of an individual cosmetic surgery procedure. When a procedure is performed individually, the costs of general anesthesia, operating room costs, surgeon’s fee and other related expenses such as medical tests, prescription drugs, surgical garments and others are likely to remain the same. In case of a mommy makeover, the plastic surgeon can combine all the procedures in one go. This eliminates duplication of costs, improves the efficiency of the procedure, and helps achieve more cohesive aesthetic outcomes. Furthermore, when multiple procedures are performed together, in many cases, the cosmetic surgeon may provide them at a discounted price as a part of a package. Therefore, patients should consider all cost-related factors carefully while evaluating whether to choose a mommy makeover. Dr. Seify will discuss these cost aspects at the time of the initial consultation with his patients in Newport Beach, Orange County, CA, and other areas.

Average Cost of a Mommy Makeover

The average cost of a mommy makeover may range from $8,000 to $20,000, depending on the extent and number of procedures involved, among other factors. Patients should have a fair idea of the individual costs of the procedures that will be a part of their mommy makeover. This will provide them with a comparison of the financial impact of the entire procedure performed as a package. The statistics released by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) statistics in 2012 indicated that the average cost of tummy tuck in the US was $5,241, the cost of breast implants was $3,543, the cost of breast lift was $4,332, and the cost of liposuction was $2,852. However, these basic costs exclude the costs of anesthesia, operating facility costs and other related expenses. The ASPS also advised that the costs of a mommy makeover would vary from one practice to another based on several factors. Patients may explore various financing options that are available in order to make payments of the procedure in convenient monthly installments.
