 Dr. Jones is among the first physicians in North America to add micro follicular unit extraction (FUE) - scalpel-free hair transplants to his practice. He has been practicing from his hair transplant center in Oakville (near Toronto) Ontario for many years, but since he started using the micro follicular unit extraction technique he has become a leader in the field.

Fue Hair Transplant For African Americans
I am a 33 year old African American woman and over 20 years ago I damaged my
hairline. I was about 11 or 12 years old when I damaged it. I wore really tight ponytails
and rolled my hair on rollers too tightly. I thinned out my hairline as well as the area just above the top of my ears. The area just above my ears receded about a half inch on both sides. I have kinky curly hair. I have
had to live with my thin hairline for over 20 years and I was wondering if a FUE hair transplant
would be effective for my condition. My receding hairline
goes back about a 1/2 inch in most places and the worst area is on the left
side, which goes back about 1 inch. My hairline isn't completely bald either--it is just really thin and so it has a "balding" look to it. I think I would probably need about 300 - 400 grafts. I do not have female
pattern baldness. Could you tell me about how much it would cost to fix my
hairline? I know you would have to see me to give me an exact amount but I
would appreciate it if you could give me an approximate amount.
Thank you and have a nice day
Hello,
For 400 to 500 grafts you are looking at abour $3,000 to $4,000,
