Many people exploring hair restoration ask if it’s covered by Alberta Health or private insurance. Unfortunately, hair transplants for both men and women, including both FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)—are considered cosmetic surgeries and are not covered under provincial or private health plans. At Hair Nation in Calgary, Dr. Navi Dhaliwal provides transparent pricing and financing options to make treatment more accessible for both men and women. Whether you’re considering FUE or FUT, every procedure is customized to your needs and performed using advanced surgical techniques for lasting, natural results. Contact Hair Nation today to book your consultation and learn more about affordable financing for your hair restoration journey.
Hair loss can have a real impact on confidence and quality of life. However, Alberta Health Services only covers procedures deemed medically necessary for physical health. Because hair transplants are considered elective cosmetic treatments, neither FUE nor FUT procedures qualify for provincial funding.
Dr. Dhaliwal and the team at Hair Nation believe in making world-class care as accessible as possible. That’s why every patient—men and women alike—receives clear cost estimates, financing options through Beautifi, and full transparency about what’s included in their procedure.
No. Alberta Health Services considers hair transplants cosmetic, so they’re not covered.
Typically not. Most private plans exclude elective cosmetic procedures.
They improve appearance rather than treat illness or injury, which excludes them from coverage.
