two further spots
Beard and eyebrow transplants
Beyond the scalp too: the same grafts from the back of the head, the same FUE method — only the area changes.
Beard transplant
FUE method, free of cuts or stitches
Grafts are taken from the donor area at the back of the head and moved through micro-punctures of about 1 mm — no scars are left. The doctor and you choose the shape before the operation, taking your facial features into account. Transplanted hair grows for life, and the beard can be trimmed and styled as usual.
The surgeon draws your eyebrow shape at the initial consultation: you study references together and the design is built around your facial features. Hairs are implanted at the right angle, so the eyebrows look natural. It also works where hairs have stopped growing after years of plucking.
A check of the donor zone, a graft number, and a frank answer about the outcome. The price you are quoted at the consultation is the price in the contract.

The steps to take before grafting
This stage involves getting the required tests done, with the clinic providing both the list and the instructions you need.
4
Anaesthesia – why patients feel nothing
This stage applies local anaesthesia, which keeps the entire operation painless.
5
Where all the new hair is collected from
At this stage, grafts are taken from the donor area — back of the head or temples — through a stitch-free method.
6
Filling in the bare scalp with live units
This is where the grafts are implanted into the affected, balding area.
7
Life in the first days after grafting
This step focuses on recovery, backed by everything the clinic provides along with complete instructions.

0-10 days — Heal

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!

Regular questions
We cover 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. City Medical Centre accepts patients from other cities and countries, and an online consultation is available before you decide.
The base prices are $2,200 (≈ CZK 48,000) (FUE), $2,500 (≈ CZK 55,000) (DHI) and $2,700 (≈ CZK 59,000) (combined). The precise cost is determined at a free consultation and graft count, then fixed in your 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.
It isn't painful: local anaesthesia is used throughout the surgery.
FUE relies on tweezer harvesting with no incisions or stitches. DHI relies on Choi-pen implantation without channels. The combined DHI+FUE approach harvests by FUE and implants by DHI.
Your graft count is worked out for free by the doctor during the consultation, based on the donor zone.
Healing takes 0–10 days. Transplanted hair sheds at 2–4 weeks, which is normal. New growth starts at 3–4 months, with noticeable density at 6–9 months and the final result at 12–18 months.
The clinic provides a lifetime guarantee on hair growth, stated in the contract.

The short story of a transplant for Prague
The transplant fits a patient from Prague because it is short and light: FUE and DHI, no cuts, no stitches, local anaesthesia, one day. Graft survival is 98-100 %, and a price from $2,200 (≈ CZK 48,000) is fixed in the contract after a free count of the grafts.
There is no charge for the first conversation in Prague, and it takes place online. The doctor looks at photos of the area and gives a clear answer about whether a transplant helps. Hours are the same 24/7.
Healing takes 0-10 days. At 2-4 weeks the transplanted hairs shed, and that is the normal course of things rather than a sign of failure. Growth starts again at 3-4 months, and from that point the change becomes visible to you.
Hair Transplant in Prague: price and what is included
Prices are in US dollars; the amount in brackets is an approximate conversion to CZK at the rate of 02.10.2026. The final price is fixed in your contract.
A folder for a decision that takes a year to judge
Prague counted 1,407,084 residents on 1 January 2026 (the city itself, not the wider region). For anyone among them thinking about a transplant, the situation has one awkward feature: the result cannot be judged for twelve to eighteen months, while the choice of clinic has to be made now. A simple folder, started on the first day, is the best protection against that gap.
Put three things in it before anything else. The first is the method in writing, because FUE, DHI and the combined protocol are different routes to the same goal, and the contract should name the one the doctor recommended for you. The second is the list of what the sum covers, line by line. The third is the name of the surgeon and a note of who will do each step. Everything else in the folder is a copy of what you have been sent.
Add the exchange of messages as well, with dates. A coordinator who answers round the clock, on WhatsApp or Telegram, leaves a trail, and the trail is useful when you compare what was promised in a chat with what was signed later. Do not count on remembering which of two clinics told you what.
Close the folder with one page of your own: why you want the operation, what outcome would count as success, and what would make you stop. Write it before the first call, and your questions will have a direction.
What the Czech Medical Chamber list proves, and where its proof ends
The Czech Medical Chamber publishes a list of its members and of guest persons, and the government services portal states that it is publicly accessible and that anyone can use it to verify whether a person has met a condition for practising medicine. That is a short, specific tool. Use it on the surgeon's name before you discuss a date.
The routine is plain. Ask the coordinator for the full name of the doctor who will operate, with the spelling the doctor uses professionally. Search for it. If the name appears, note the entry and the day you looked. If it does not, write back at once and ask how the doctor is registered, since a person can be entitled to practise in more than one way.
What the list does not do is as important. It does not tell you how many transplants a doctor has performed, which method suits you better, or whether the person at the consultation will be the person at the operating table. Ask those questions directly. The clinic's own answer is that the doctor you speak to at the consultation is the one in the operating room, and that the doctor studies the donor zone, arrives at the graft count and explains the achievable outcome.
Ask also for diplomas and certificates. The clinic says that you can check everything before you pay, and that includes the paperwork of the doctors. A request of this kind is routine for a team with nothing to hide, and a hesitant reply is information too.
Health insurance in Czechia and a cosmetic operation
A hospital guide written for foreign staff in Czechia explains that health insurance there covers most healthcare, with a small part excluded, and gives cosmetic surgery without any health reason as an example of that excluded part. It names VZP as the largest insurance company. A transplant for thinning hair is an elective procedure, so the sensible assumption is that you will pay for it yourself.
Do not stop at the assumption. If you hold a supplementary policy, ask the insurer in writing whether anything in it applies, and keep the reply. Then turn the question around and ask the clinic what is included in the sum: dressings and healing checks, the care plan for transplanted and donor areas, guidance on washing, sleep and headwear, a plan for returning to sport and hair care, and post-operative checks.
Ask for the plan as a separate section of the contract, so that the schedule and the total are visible without reading the whole agreement twice. Ask what happens if you decide to stop before the operation and what the deposit is for, since a deposit reserves the surgery date and is paid by card at the clinic or online.
A wise habit is to read the contract on a different day from the one you receive it. Mark whatever you do not understand and send the marked copy back with your questions. Keep the marked copy next to the signed one.
From a photograph on your phone to a graft plan
The first message needs less than most people think. Photographs of the areas where the hair has thinned are enough. A coordinator forwards them to a doctor, who says whether a transplant would help. The online consultation is free and nothing is booked, so sending pictures commits you to nothing at all.
What comes back should be specific. Look for a view on suitability, a method with a reason attached, and a description of the next step, which is the graft count. That count rests on the donor zone, the back of the head or the temples, and the doctor makes it at the consultation. It leads to a price that is then written into the contract, with the sum agreed standing on the day of surgery.
The beard and the eyebrows use the same donor area and the same FUE method, with only the area changing. If your quote mentions a scalp only, you can ask whether the doctor sees any reason to discuss the others. The answer may be none, and it is better to know that than to wonder.
On the operating day, the work is done in a single day under local anaesthesia, and the patient goes home afterwards. Ask what you must do beforehand; the clinic lists the tests and gives instructions for completing them. Keep that list with the contract.
After the operation: questions to settle in writing, not in the corridor
Recovery is long, and its early stages look alarming only if nobody described them. Ask your coordinator to confirm in a message that the first ten days bring crusts that shed and swelling that goes down, that at two to four weeks the transplanted hairs fall out while the follicles stay in place, and that the first new growth is expected at three to four months. Once you hold that message, month one is easier to live through.
Ask what the guidance on headwear and washing says in practice. Ask when sport can resume, and what the plan for returning to sport and hair care consists of. Ask who receives your photographs between the scheduled checks, and how quickly a doctor looks at them. The clinic's answer is a personal coordinator who stays with you through recovery.
The checks are scheduled at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Put the dates into your calendar on the day of surgery and photograph the same areas each time, from the same angles, so that the comparison is fair.
Where do I look up a doctor registered in Czechia?
The Czech Medical Chamber publishes a public list of its members and guest persons. The government services portal says anyone may use it to check whether a person has met a condition for practising medicine.
Does Czech health insurance pay for a hair transplant?
A hospital guide for foreign staff lists cosmetic surgery without a health reason among the things excluded from health insurance. Treat the operation as self-funded, and ask any supplementary insurer directly.
What should the first message contain?
Photographs of the areas where the hair has thinned. The coordinator passes them to a doctor, who replies on whether a transplant would help. It is free and books nothing.
Can a beard or eyebrow transplant be discussed in the same conversation?
Yes. The same donor area and the same FUE method are used, and only the area changes. Raise it at the first consultation so the quote reflects it.
What is the graft count based on?
The doctor studies your donor zone at the consultation and counts the grafts you need from it. The price follows from that count, so ask to see both in the contract.
What if I cannot tell shedding from a problem?
Send dated photographs to your coordinator. The clinic describes shedding at two to four weeks as a normal stage in which the follicles stay in place, and a doctor can confirm what you see.
Who answers questions after the operation?
Your personal coordinator, available round the clock on WhatsApp and Telegram, plus the scheduled checks at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months.
