another two zones
Beard and eyebrow transplants
A hair transplant is not confined to the scalp. Same grafts from the back of the head, same FUE method — only the area changes.
Beard transplant
FUE method, no cuts or stitches
Grafts come from the donor area at the back of the head and are placed through micro-punctures about 1 mm across, and no scars are left. The shape is discussed with you before the operation, with your facial features taken into account. Transplanted hair grows for life: trim and style the beard as usual.
At the very first consultation the surgeon pencils in the brow line, you both go over reference images, and the drawing is matched to the proportions of your face. Placing each hair at the proper angle is what makes the result believable. Where plucking over many years has halted growth, this works as well.
The doctor will assess your donor area, count the grafts and show what result is achievable in your case. The cost is quoted at the consultation and fixed in the contract.

I traveled to City Medical Centre, where they helped me overcome hair loss through a transplant to the balding areas of my scalp. I am grateful to the doctors for performing the procedure painlessly.

I am sharing my experience, because before the operation I went through a pile of reviews myself and was looking for real stories.
I had a beard transplant six months ago. Honestly, in the first days after the procedure I felt a little jittery: my face looked unfamiliar, there was slight swelling and small scabs. In the first couple of months the hair partly fell out, as the doctor had warned.
But now the result truly makes me very happy) From about the 4th month active, even growth began. The transplanted hair took very well, the beard now looks as natural as possible, no bald patches are left. The beard became much thicker and denser, with the shape I had thought about for a long time.
All in all, I recommend the clinic, the doctor was polite and explained everything 👍
The result is definitely worth it!

Queries we hear
We answer what people ask before booking
People often say hair implants, but no artificial hair is used. In a hair transplant the doctor moves your own follicles (grafts) from the donor area to thinning or bald areas using FUE or DHI.
Yes, this is possible. An online consultation is offered so patients from other cities and countries can plan ahead.
Prices start at $2,200 (≈ NOK 21,500) for FUE, $2,500 (≈ NOK 24,500) for DHI, and $2,700 (≈ NOK 26,500) for the combined method. Your final price is set after a free graft count and locked into the contract.
Surgery is done in one day, and patients go home the same day it's finished.
It helps with stable pattern hair loss and a receding hairline when there are enough donor grafts. Some types of alopecia need treatment first; the doctor checks this at the consultation.
No — local anaesthesia keeps the whole procedure pain-free.
FUE is the classic method: grafts are harvested with tweezers, with no cuts or stitches. DHI implants grafts without channels, using a Choi pen. A combined method harvests grafts by FUE and implants them with the DHI pen.
Graft count is calculated by the doctor at no cost, based on an assessment of your donor zone.
The timeline is: 0–10 days healing, 2–4 weeks shedding (normal), 3–4 months new growth, 6–9 months visible density, and 12–18 months for the final result.
Your procedure includes a lifetime hair-growth guarantee under contract.

Planning a hair transplant in Oslo
A patient in Oslo will find the requirements modest: FUE and DHI ask for no cuts, no stitches and no more than local anaesthesia, and the whole operation is behind you by the end of one day.
Everything starts with a photograph for a patient in Oslo: the online consultation carries no fee, the doctor looks at the thinning area and answers whether a transplant helps in your case. The clinic works 24/7.
Set aside 0-10 days for healing and the rest looks after itself. The transplanted hairs shed at 2-4 weeks - a normal step, though it rarely feels like one. Regrowth sets in at 3-4 months and continues steadily afterwards.
Hair Transplant in Oslo: price and what is included
Prices are in US dollars; the amount in brackets is an approximate conversion to NOK at the rate of 02.10.2026. The final price is fixed in your contract.
What Norway's own rules tell you about a transplant
Oslo municipality had 724,290 inhabitants on 1 January 2025, and two Norwegian documents bear directly on anyone from that city who is thinking about restoring hair. The first is Helsedirektoratet's circular on cosmetic procedures, appendix 2 to section 5-4. It states that cosmetic procedures which are not predominantly medically indicated carry no benefit, lists hair transplantation onto naturally balding skin as typically purely cosmetic, and adds that public hospitals do not offer purely cosmetic treatment. The text was last substantively updated on 1 February 1999.
Read that as a plain planning note: a transplant for androgenetic alopecia is something you arrange and pay for privately, so the whole arrangement should sit in a contract. The clinic fixes the sum at the free consultation, once the grafts have been counted, and the agreed sum stands on the day of surgery.
The second document is section 4 b of the Norwegian health-personnel act. It sets an age limit of 18 for cosmetic procedures without medical or dental justification, it holds regardless of consent, and it exempts corrective procedures for malformation, injury or illness. The clinic's own list of contraindications starts the same way, with patients under 18. If you are close to that line, say so in your first message.
None of this stands in the way of a conversation. The consultation is free and online, a coordinator replies in WhatsApp or Telegram round the clock, and the doctor tells you openly if a transplant would not help.
Papers worth holding before any deposit
Norway runs a public register, Helsepersonellregisteret, maintained by Helsedirektoratet. It records every official approval given to health personnel in the country, shows present status together with the history of earlier approvals, and lists sanctions imposed by the Norwegian Board of Health Supervision. It illustrates the standard of openness worth expecting from any clinic: where a person stands now and what came before.
The clinic keeps a paper trail of its own. Before money changes hands you may ask to see its licence, the name of the entity responsible for your care, and the diplomas and certificates held by each doctor. The hair specialists come from trichology, dermatovenereology and plastic surgery.
Send one message with four requests: the licence and its number, the name of the organisation providing the service, the credentials of the doctor who would operate, and the draft contract for medical services. Then ask a fifth question, because it is the one people forget: who is in the operating room? The clinic says the doctor you see at the consultation is the doctor who operates. Get that line in writing.
A date is held with a deposit, paid by card at the clinic or online, with the terms in your contract.
Comparing two quotations without a spreadsheet degree
Two offers for a hair transplant are comparable only when four things match: the method, the number of grafts, the area to be covered and the person who performs the work. Draw a small grid on paper with those four rows and one column for each clinic. Fill in only what you have received in writing. An empty cell is not a failure, it is the next question.
Add three more rows if you want to go further. What does the sum cover? Which check-ups are planned, and when? Who do you write to between them? The clinic answers these directly: dressings and healing checks, a care plan for transplanted and donor areas, guidance on washing, sleep and headwear, a plan for sport and hair care, and a personal coordinator who receives your photographs.
Decide ahead of time what you would count as a good outcome. Fuller coverage at the front, a covered crown, a denser beard and stronger eyebrows each need a different number of grafts, and a doctor can only plan for the goal you name. Write the goal as one sentence and read it again the next morning.
Keep a short decision journal. On the day of the consultation, note what the doctor recommended and why. Two days later, note whether it still makes sense. If your view changes, write why. A journal like this protects you from the pressure of the moment, and it is a calm way to separate a real answer from a persuasive one.
Finally, remember what photographs cannot do. They show the pattern of loss. The graft count comes only after the doctor studies the donor zone, so any number mentioned before that is provisional. The figure that matters is the one in the contract.
FUE, DHI or both: the practical differences
Three techniques are on offer. With FUE, grafts are lifted out one at a time using forceps, with no cuts or stitches. With DHI, a Choi pen delivers each graft straight into the skin and no channels are prepared. The combined option extracts by FUE and implants by DHI, and aims to thicken hair thinned by androgenetic alopecia.
Quoted survival for FUE grafts is 98 to 100 per cent, and the clinic presents that as an average for orientation. Your own figure depends on the zone treated and on your hair, and it is the doctor at the consultation who gives it.
Surgery takes a single day under local anaesthesia, and afterwards you go home. Request the list of pre-operative tests early, with instructions for each.
Beard and eyebrows borrow the same donor zone at the back of the head. Beard grafts pass through micro-punctures near 1 mm across; for brows the surgeon sketches the line first while you look at reference photographs together.
Your first message should carry daylight photographs of dry hair, covering the front, both temples, the crown, the back and the donor zone. Add when thinning started, its speed, family history and any illness or medicine, such as diabetes, epilepsy, a pacemaker or a heart condition, because the doctor weighs those first. The review that follows is free and books nothing.
Ask three things about whichever method is recommended. Why this one for my donor zone and my pattern of loss? What would make you recommend another? Who carries out each stage? Keep the replies in your folder: they are the baseline against which you will judge the plan when the contract arrives.
Mention your timetable honestly. A person who expects the final look in three months will be disappointed; one who knows that growth starts at 3 to 4 months and finishes at 12 to 18 will not. Clear expectations at the start are the simplest safeguard a patient has.
Twelve to eighteen months, in order
Little happens quickly after a transplant, so the order of events is worth knowing. Crusts shed and swelling settles in the first 10 days. Around weeks 2 to 4 the transplanted hairs drop out, which is a normal stage, and the follicles stay put. Fresh growth begins at 3 to 4 months, thickness builds up at 6 to 9, and the finished result with a natural edge shows at 12 to 18 months.
Follow-up is part of the arrangement: appointments at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, with your own coordinator in between and photographs flowing both ways. Ask for the washing, sleeping, headwear, sport and hair-care guidance in print.
Ask for each of those items as written instructions rather than a verbal summary. Then add the dates to a calendar on the day the surgery date is fixed, and photograph the same angles in the same light before every check.
Does Norway treat a hair transplant as a cosmetic procedure?
Helsedirektoratet's circular on cosmetic procedures lists hair transplantation onto naturally balding skin as typically purely cosmetic, with no benefit available for cosmetic procedures that are not predominantly medically indicated.
What does the Norwegian age limit say?
Section 4 b of the health-personnel act sets 18 for cosmetic procedures without medical or dental justification, regardless of consent. The clinic also lists under 18 as a contraindication.
What can I see in Helsepersonellregisteret?
It records all official approvals for health personnel in Norway and shows current status, earlier approvals and sanctions from the Norwegian Board of Health Supervision.
Which documents does the clinic let me inspect?
The medical licence, the legal entity responsible for care, and the doctors' diplomas and certificates.
Which areas should the first photographs cover?
The front, temples, crown, back and donor zone, shot in daylight.
Is a deposit needed to get a graft count?
No. The count and the verdict come with the free consultation, and the deposit only enters the picture when you reserve a surgery date.
