Hair Restoration

Real hair, from a real surgeon.

Dr. Troy Austin, MD, board-certified plastic surgeon in Augusta, GA

Medically reviewed by Dr. Troy Austin, MD — double board-certified plastic surgeon ◆ Updated July 2026

Hair restoration replaces lost or thinning hair using three main approaches: NeoGraft® FUE, a minimally invasive transplant that harvests individual follicles and leaves no linear scar; PRP therapy, which uses growth factors from your own blood to stimulate the follicles you still have; and TED, a needle-free, non-invasive treatment that promotes new hair growth. Unlike the salons, wig studios, and non-surgical replacement shops that fill much of the Augusta market, hair restoration at Southeastern Aesthetic Surgery is led by a double board-certified plastic surgeon — medical-grade care for real, natural regrowth. Dr. Troy Austin treats male and female pattern hair loss across Augusta, Evans, Martinez, and Columbia County, GA, and Aiken, SC, with a plan matched to your hair.

Linear scars, NeoGraft FUE

NeoGraft harvests individual follicles rather than a strip of scalp, so there’s no long linear scar — just tiny, hard-to-see dot sites that fade.

NeoGraft starting price

NeoGraft FUE starts here and varies by the number of grafts; PRP is priced separately. We give you an exact quote at consultation. Financing available.

Medical-grade, not a mall kiosk.

Hair loss is a medical condition, and the most natural results come from someone who understands the scalp, the hairline, and how grafts take. Dr. Austin is double board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery, completed his plastic surgery fellowship at the Medical College of Georgia here in Augusta, and trained in general surgery at the Ochsner Clinic Foundation in New Orleans.

That surgical judgment is what separates SEA from the wig studios and non-surgical replacement shops nearby — and it means your hair restoration can be planned alongside other procedures for men when it fits, from gynecomastia to a male facelift.

A natural hairline is designed, not stamped on. The art is in the angle, the density, and where every follicle goes. Dr. Troy Austin

Is it right for you?

For thinning hair — men and women.

Hair restoration helps healthy adults with male or female pattern baldness, a receding hairline, general thinning, or localized loss. For a NeoGraft transplant, you’ll want enough healthy hair in a donor area at the back or sides of the scalp to move to thinning zones. If your loss is early or diffuse, PRP therapy or TED may be the better first step — and approaches are often used together. The best way to know which path fits is a scalp evaluation with Dr. Austin.

Your three options

NeoGraft® FUE vs. PRP vs. TED.

One moves your own follicles for lasting coverage; one stimulates the hair you still have; and one promotes new growth with no needles and no surgery. Many patients combine approaches.

Not sure which fits? PRP can strengthen the hair you have, a NeoGraft transplant restores what’s gone, and TED promotes new growth without needles or surgery. Dr. Austin maps the right combination at your scalp evaluation.

TED: the needle-free option. TED is a non-invasive, needle-free treatment designed to combat hair thinning and promote new hair growth, with no transplant, no needles, and no downtime. It is a strong fit for early or diffuse thinning and as a preventative step, and it is typically done as a series of three 30-minute appointments. TED starts at $2,400.

Option one

NeoGraft® FUE hair transplant.

NeoGraft is an advanced follicular unit extraction (FUE) system that moves your own hair to where you need it — with no strip incision and no linear scar.

How it works

Individual follicles are harvested one by one from a donor area at the back or sides of the scalp, then placed into thinning or balding zones to match your natural growth pattern. Because there’s no strip of scalp removed, there’s no long linear scar — only tiny dot sites that heal and fade.

The session

NeoGraft is minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia, so you’re comfortable throughout — you may feel light pressure but not significant pain. Most sessions run 4 to 8 hours depending on how many grafts you need.

Natural by design

Because it uses your own hair, placed to replicate your natural angle and density, a NeoGraft result blends seamlessly and grows like the rest of your hair.

No linear scar

FUE harvesting means no strip scar to hide — wear your hair short if you like.

Option two

PRP therapy for hair.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a non-surgical treatment that uses growth factors from your own blood to stimulate the follicles you still have.

How it works

A small sample of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, which are rich in growth factors. That enriched plasma is then injected into areas of thinning to encourage stronger, denser growth. It’s a natural, regenerative approach with minimal downtime.

Who it suits

PRP is well suited to early or diffuse thinning, to maintaining and strengthening existing hair, and as a complement to a NeoGraft transplant or hair-loss medication. Most patients begin to see results about three months after starting treatment.

The visit

Sessions are quick, and downtime is minimal — some mild swelling or tenderness at the scalp is normal for a short time afterward.

Better together. PRP strengthens the hair you have; NeoGraft restores what’s gone. Many patients do both.

Investment

How much does hair restoration cost in Augusta?

NeoGraft FUE is priced by the number of grafts your restoration needs; PRP is priced by session or package. In the Augusta area, NeoGraft ranges from $5,000 to $8,000, and your exact quote is confirmed in writing at your consultation. TED is offered as a series of three 30-minute appointments, starting at $2,400.

NeoGraft® FUE hair transplant $5,000 – $8,000
Varies by number of grafts
PRP therapy (per session) $600 – $1,000
PRP therapy (package of 3) $1,500 – $2,500
Consultation with Dr. Austin $100
TED hair restoration (series of 3) $2,400+

Your NeoGraft quote depends on graft count; PRP is often done as a series for best results, and TED is done as a series of three 30-minute appointments. Hair restoration is a cosmetic treatment and isn’t typically covered by insurance. Financing is available through Cherry, CareCredit, PatientFi, and Alle Financing.

Recovery & results

Healing & what to expect.

NeoGraft recovery

After a NeoGraft transplant, expect mild scalp sensitivity and redness for a few days. Most patients return to normal activities within about a week, following simple aftercare to protect the new grafts.

PRP recovery

PRP has minimal downtime — you may notice mild swelling or tenderness at the scalp for a short time, and you can generally get back to your day right away.

When you’ll see results, and how long they last

  • NeoGraft: transplanted follicles shed at first, then regrow over the following months; because donor hair resists the hormone that causes pattern loss, the result is long-lasting, though ongoing care and healthy habits help.
  • PRP: most patients see improvement about three months in, with maintenance sessions to sustain it over time.

Studies show PRP can increase both the number of hairs and the density of hair in treated areas, though results vary with the underlying cause of hair loss.

Patience pays off. New hair grows in gradually over months — the wait is worth a natural result.

Hair restoration Questions.

What hair restoration does SEA offer?

Southeastern Aesthetic Surgery offers three surgeon-led approaches: NeoGraft® FUE, a minimally invasive hair transplant that moves your own follicles with no linear scar; PRP therapy, a non-surgical treatment that uses growth factors from your own blood to stimulate thinning hair; and TED, a needle-free, non-invasive treatment that promotes new hair growth without a transplant. Many patients combine approaches, matched to their hair by Dr. Austin.

A NeoGraft transplant restores real coverage to receding or balding areas by moving your own follicles, with long-lasting results. PRP is non-surgical and best for early thinning, maintenance, or boosting existing hair. If loss is advanced you’ll likely lean toward NeoGraft; if it’s early or diffuse, PRP or TED may come first — and approaches are often combined.

NeoGraft FUE is priced by the number of grafts and ranges from about $5,000 to $8,000 in the Augusta area. PRP is priced by session or package. Hair restoration is cosmetic and isn’t typically covered by insurance. Your written quote is confirmed at consultation, and financing is available.

NeoGraft is an advanced follicular unit extraction (FUE) system that harvests individual follicles from a donor area and implants them into thinning areas. Because no strip of scalp is removed, there’s no long linear scar — only tiny dot sites that heal and fade, so you can wear your hair short.

PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy draws a small sample of your blood, concentrates the platelets and their growth factors in a centrifuge, and injects that plasma into thinning areas to stimulate stronger, denser growth. It’s non-surgical with minimal downtime, and most patients see results about three months in.

TED is a non-invasive, needle-free hair restoration treatment, not a transplant. It is designed to combat hair thinning and promote new hair growth, and it is a good fit for early thinning or as a preventative step. Treatment is typically a series of three 30-minute appointments, starting at $2,400.

NeoGraft is performed under local anesthesia, so you’re comfortable throughout — you may feel light pressure or tugging but not significant pain. PRP involves quick injections into the scalp with only mild, brief discomfort.

NeoGraft results are long-lasting because the transplanted follicles come from areas resistant to the hormone that causes pattern hair loss. Ongoing care and healthy habits help protect your result. PRP maintains and strengthens hair over time and works best with periodic maintenance sessions.

Yes. NeoGraft uses your own hair, placed to replicate your natural angle, direction, and density, so it blends seamlessly with your existing hair and grows just like it. Designing a natural hairline is a large part of the artistry Dr. Austin brings to the procedure.

Hair restoration suits healthy adults with male or female pattern baldness, a receding hairline, general thinning, or localized loss. For a NeoGraft transplant you’ll need enough healthy donor hair; for PRP, earlier or diffuse thinning responds best. A scalp evaluation with Dr. Austin confirms the right approach.

After NeoGraft, expect mild scalp sensitivity and redness for a few days, with most patients back to normal activities within about a week. PRP has minimal downtime — some mild swelling or tenderness at the scalp that settles quickly.
