What to Expect During Your Procedure​

Understanding each step of the process helps you feel prepared and confident on the day of surgery. Here is what a typical session looks like at our New Jersey clinic.

STEP 01

Consultation and Planning

You will meet with Dr. Kopelman for a thorough scalp evaluation. Together, you will review your pattern of thinning, discuss realistic density goals, and select the technique (FUE, FUT, or a combination) best suited to your case.

STEP 02

Custom Hairline Design

Before any incision is made, the surgeon maps a new hairline that complements your facial structure, age, and natural growth direction. This step is collaborative; you approve the design before the procedure begins.

STEP 03

Local Anesthesia

The donor and recipient areas are numbed with local anesthetic. Patients remain awake and comfortable throughout. Many choose to watch a show, listen to a podcast, or simply rest.

STEP 04

Graft Extraction

For FUE, individual follicular units are harvested one at a time with a micro-punch. For FUT, a narrow strip is removed and divided into individual grafts under magnification. Both methods preserve graft integrity for maximum survival.

STEP 05

Recipient Site Creation and Implantation

Dr. Kopelman creates tiny recipient channels at precise angles and depths that mirror your natural growth pattern. Each graft is then placed by hand to ensure seamless density and direction.

STEP 05

Post-Procedure Care

You will receive detailed aftercare instructions covering cleansing, sleep position, and activity restrictions. A follow-up appointment is scheduled within the first week.

STEP 05

Recovery Timeline

Most patients take two to three days off from work, though many feel comfortable returning to desk-based tasks the next day. Light exercise can typically resume within five to seven days, with full activity, including swimming and heavy lifting, cleared at approximately three weeks. Transplanted follicles enter a resting phase and begin visible new growth between three and six months, with full results appearing at 12 to 18 months.

FUE vs FUT: Which Method Is Right for You?

The two primary surgical approaches we perform are FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation). Each technique has distinct advantages depending on your goals, donor supply, and lifestyle.

FUE involves extracting individual follicular units one at a time using a micro-punch instrument. There is no linear scar, making it ideal for patients who prefer shorter styles. Recovery is faster, and most patients return to normal activity within a week.

FUT removes a narrow strip of tissue from the donor area, which is then divided into individual grafts under magnification. This method allows for a higher graft yield in a single session, making it well-suited for patients who need extensive coverage. The trade-off is a thin linear scar at the donor site, which is typically concealed by surrounding growth.

During your consultation, Dr. Kopelman will assess your degree of thinning, donor density, and long-term goals to recommend the approach, or a combination of both, that will deliver the most natural outcome for your case.

COMMON QUESTIONS

NJ Hair Transplant
FAQs

Yes, transplant surgery is not limited to the scalp. At Kopelman, led by Dr. Joel Kopelman and Dr. Ross Kopelman, we perform procedures for various areas to enhance your look and confidence. Our services include:
Eyebrow Transplant
Beard Transplant
Body Follicle Transplant
Scar Repair
Scalp Micropigmentation creates the illusion of fuller density using an electric tattoo device to apply layered dots that mimic natural follicles. It is an excellent non-surgical option for patients who want improved coverage without surgery.
Some treatments, such as low-level laser therapy, platelet-rich plasma, mesotherapy, and microneedling, provide temporary benefits that require ongoing sessions. A surgical transplant offers a more permanent solution because the grafts are taken from donor areas genetically resistant to thinning. Additional sessions may be needed over time to address continued natural progression.
Follicular restoration is usually considered a cosmetic procedure and is not covered by insurance. However, treatments related to medical conditions like alopecia areata or trauma-related loss might be covered in some cases.
With a range of techniques available, we can tailor a strategy to your specific needs and budget.
While online vendors offer thinning medications, personalized care from specialists in dermatology or follicular restoration is often more effective. Kopelman provides comprehensive assessments and customized treatment plans at our Paramus, NJ office.
Dr. Joel Kopelman and Dr. Ross Kopelman are renowned for their expertise in surgical and non-surgical restoration. They stay current with the latest therapies and techniques to provide top-quality care, making them the leading specialists in NJ.
FUE is widely considered the gold standard in follicular restoration. It provides the most natural-looking results with minimal side effects and no linear scar. With FUE, patients can wear any style, including closely cropped cuts, without visible scarring. That said, FUT remains the better choice for patients who need maximum graft yield in a single session. Dr. Kopelman will recommend the approach best suited to your case during your consultation.
The price depends mainly on the number of grafts being placed. Transplant surgery is not covered by insurance as it is considered a cosmetic procedure. Factors that influence cost include the technique used (FUE or FUT), the complexity of the case, and the total graft count. General pricing ranges are:
2,000 grafts: $25,000 to $40,000
3,000 grafts: $25,000 to $35,000
5,000 grafts: $30,000 to $40,000
A personalized cost estimate is provided during your consultation once the surgeon has assessed your donor area and coverage goals.
Like any surgical procedure, transplant surgery carries inherent risks. Potential complications may include allergic reactions to anesthesia (rare but serious), and surgical risks such as bleeding or infection. Scarring can occur, and there is a small risk of changes in nerve sensitivity or graft failure in isolated areas. Sometimes additional sessions may be needed. This list is not exhaustive, and individual medical history or lifestyle factors may affect your risk profile. Dr. Kopelman will discuss all considerations with you before your procedure.
The cost of 5,000 grafts varies by location, surgeon credentials, and technique. In the New York and New Jersey area, pricing for a session of this size typically ranges from $30,000 to $40,000, reflecting the level of surgical expertise and the standards of a fully accredited facility.
