New Hampshire has a small hair transplant market, with most providers concentrated in the southern part of the state. The proximity to Boston gives New Hampshire residents access to one of the strongest hair restoration markets in New England, but proximity bias still causes 62% of patients to choose suboptimal local clinics without exploring all available options.

Hair Transplant Landscape in New Hampshire
New Hampshire's hair restoration market is limited in size but benefits from its location next to the Boston metro area. Key points:
- Manchester / Nashua: The most likely locations for hair transplant providers within the state, with some dermatology and plastic surgery practices offering hair restoration
- Concord: The state capital has limited options for dedicated hair transplant services
- Southern NH corridor: Residents along the I-93 corridor have easy access to Boston-area clinics, often within a 45 to 60 minute drive
- Northern New Hampshire: Patients in the White Mountains region and further north typically need to travel south for any hair restoration procedure
What to Evaluate in New Hampshire Clinics
- ISHRS membership: Verify through the official ISHRS directory, as some general practitioners may offer hair transplants without specialized training
- Dedicated specialization: Determine whether the provider focuses on hair restoration or offers it as one of many services
- Annual case volume: In a smaller market, ask specifically how many procedures the surgeon performs each year
- Boston comparison: Get at least one consultation from a Boston-area clinic to compare recommendations and pricing
- Follow-up logistics: If choosing a clinic outside the state, confirm the follow-up appointment schedule and local options for post-operative care
Cost Expectations in New Hampshire
New Hampshire pricing follows standard US rates:
| Norwood Stage | Grafts Needed | NH Cost ($4-$6/graft) |
|---|---|---|
| Norwood 2 | 800 to 1,500 | $3,200 to $9,000 |
| Norwood 3 | 1,500 to 2,200 | $6,000 to $13,200 |
| Norwood 4 | 2,500 to 3,500 | $10,000 to $21,000 |
| Norwood 5 | 3,000 to 4,500 | $12,000 to $27,000 |
| Norwood 6 | 4,000 to 6,000 | $16,000 to $36,000 |
| Norwood 7 | 5,500 to 7,500 | $22,000 to $45,000 |
New Hampshire has no state income tax and no sales tax, but these do not directly affect hair transplant pricing, which is set by individual clinics.
Procedure Options in New Hampshire
| Technique | Max Grafts/Session | Recovery | Scarring |
|---|---|---|---|
| FUE | Up to 5,000 | 7 to 10 days | Small dot scars |
| FUT | Up to 4,000 | 10 to 14 days | Linear scar |
| DHI | Up to 3,500 | 7 to 10 days | Minimal dot scars |
All three techniques achieve 90% to 95% graft survival rates. Not all New Hampshire clinics offer every technique, so confirm availability during your consultation.
Alternatives to Consider
New Hampshire patients commonly explore:
- Boston metro area: One of the strongest hair transplant markets in New England, with numerous ISHRS-certified surgeons within a short drive from southern NH
- Medical tourism: Turkey ($1 to $2 per graft) offers significant savings for patients willing to travel internationally
- Non-surgical treatments: Finasteride (80% to 90% halt further loss), minoxidil (40% to 60% regrowth), and PRP ($500 to $2,000 per session) can be effective for earlier stages of hair loss
