Dr. Kulbersh and his staff are incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and provided me with all the confidence I needed to move forward with my facial procedure. I would recommend Carolina Facial Plastics to anyone wanting the best of the best in Charlotte. I love my results!
During your consultation, Dr. Kulbersh will examine your scalp and ask what hair restoration treatments (if any) you’ve tried in the past, and the degrees of success you’ve achieved. After examining your scalp and finding out the history and full extent of your hair loss, he will explain the various treatment options, determine how many hair grafts are needed, and recommend the best treatment plan that will give you the most natural-looking results. Some treatment plans may include medical hair growth treatments for 6 months to a year before considering hair transplantation. He may also show you hair transplant before and after photos so that you’ll know what results to expect.
Slight redness, pimple-like bumps, and discoloration is expected. You may also notice a few hairs falling out over time. The transplanted hair begins to shed around 2-8 weeks.

Hair transplant surgery is normally a safe procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. Still, all types of surgery carry some degree of risk. Possible complications of hair transplant surgery include:
The average cost of a hair transplant is between $8,000-$18,000 for FUE/Neograft.
Factors affecting the cost and price of hair transplants include:
Men and women who have been balding for many years, whose pattern hair loss has stabilized, and who desire to have thicker hair for a more youthful-looking appearance may be ideal candidates for a hair transplant. Those who have lost hair due to injury, trauma, or burns and those who have lost hair due to cosmetic procedures such as facelifts may also benefit from the procedure. Potential candidates must have healthy hair growth at the back and sides of the head to serve as donor sites.
A consultation with Dr. Kulbersh is the best way to determine one’s eligibility for a hair transplant.
Neograft works best on patients who:
Hair transplantation is performed under local anesthesia, so there is only minimal discomfort during the procedure. Since patient comfort is our top priority, we will make sure you are relaxed during the procedure. We also utilize Pro-Nox, which is a type of laughing gas to help ease discomfort or nervousness, along with oral medications to help you relax during the procedure.
Generally, patients obtain final hair transplant results between six and nine months after their hair transplant surgery. For some patients, it takes a year.
If you’re unhappy with your hair transplant results, transplanted hair grafts can be removed and placed in another area or to correct the mistakes of your previous surgeon.
No. Hair transplants are considered cosmetic procedures and will not be covered by insurance.
Since donor hair follicles preserve their characteristics and enable healthy hair growth, the results of a hair transplant are visibly long-lasting and are considered permanent. Hair loss is progressive and will continue if patients do not take care of their native hair. It is important for patients to continue non-surgical treatments after a hair transplant to maintain a stellar result.
The procedure itself takes 1-2 days, and recovery can take up to 7 days. You might need to take a week off from work for the procedure.
If you are experiencing pain, discomfort, or other complications associated with hair transplant surgery during and after the expected recovery process, or if your side effects are becoming progressively worse, contact your surgeon to receive the appropriate treatment.
If you have any acute problems after your hair transplant that need urgent attention, they should occur within the first week. Otherwise, any problem that develops over time would be minor and require less immediate attention, and Dr. Kulbersh can initially address it through a tele-consult. If you require an urgent medical visit, he may contact or recommend a colleague in your vicinity to have you evaluated.
Yes, FUE/NeoGraft is a viable option for both men and women who seek to restore their own natural and growing hair through transplantation. Since it is a minimally-invasive procedure, it is suitable for both genders.
