How to pay for a Facial Hair Transplant

You'll need to come up with some discretionary funds to pay for a facial hair transplant because the procedure isn't covered by insurance plans. Hair transplants are cosmetic, so unless you need the surgery as a result of a serious accident, you'll have to pay for it yourself.

Instructions

1. Find out all the costs associated with the procedure before you get your first treatment. In addition to surgeon fees, you will have anesthesia costs, supplies and nursing assistance to pay for. Ask about how many visits you will need to complete the facial hair transplant and what kind of follow-up is included in the cost.

2. Start a separate savings account to set aside funds exclusively for the procedure. You can make regular deposits from your paycheck or have automatic deductions set up with your employer. When you receive gifts or unexpected money, add it to the balance. Saving money over time can help you appreciate your facial hair transplant surgery.

3. Shop around for cosmetic surgeons who offer deals and specials. Some national hair transplant centers give rebates and travel allowances. If you go to a discounter, make sure that the facility is well respected, and check out some of their results.

4. Get the treatments done in phases so you can stretch out the payments as you "grow" your facial hair. For example, get a mustache and add a goatee the following year. Not only will this help you avoid one huge bill, you can ease into the new hair gradually.
