10 Years of Hair Transplants in Australia: Gro Clinics’ Journey
In 2014, Gro Clinics opened its first hair transplant clinic in Sydney, aiming to change how Australians approach hair restoration. With one doctor and one nurse, our mission was clear: deliver ethical, medically guided care for hair loss. Today, that mission continues - across a national network of doctor-led clinics in Australia and New Zealand.
What We've Learned Over The Decade.
Over the past decade, Gro Clinics has grown from a single clinic to a network with locations in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, the Gold Coast, and Auckland. Each clinic offers in-person consultations and assessments, providing personalised recommendations based on each client’s goals and medical needs.

Meet the Gro Clinics Hair Transplant Team
All Gro Clinics locations are staffed with locally trained hair transplant doctors. With years of experience supporting Townsville residents seeking hair loss solutions, our team begins each journey with a free consultation, available online or in person. For those in Townsville, the nearest clinics are in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.
After your initial meeting, you can decide whether to travel for a professional hair transplant procedure, suitable for both men and women experiencing hair loss.
Here at Gro Clinics, our team of dedicated doctors and nurses have years of experience in treating a wide range of hair loss conditions. We utilise cutting-edge hair transplant technology to address both male and female hair loss, which is refined from the more traditional Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique.
Our collective experience also allows our doctors to tailor hair loss treatment plans to all visitors. In your initial consultation, we will identify potential hair loss causes, which areas of the scalp are to be targeted, and which method may provide the best results.
It is important to note that results will vary depending on the individual.
The experience of Gro Clinics’ staff is supported by locally-based training in the latest hair transplant techniques. This includes our exclusive Precise Follicle Placement (PFP) technique, which is refined from FUE.
Our training focuses on honing the precision and consistency of our hair transplant procedure. This means transplanted hair follicles are made to match existing hair patterns for more natural-looking results.
The main mission of Gro Clinics is to offer Australians and New Zealanders accessible and affordable hair transplant services. That is why we provide virtual consultations, so that areas like Townsville can easily access our expertise before deciding if our hair loss treatments are suitable for them.

Answers are general in nature and don’t replace medical advice. Outcomes vary.
Costs & Payment
How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost for Townsville Residents?
The cost of a hair transplant for Townsville residents varies depending on multiple factors, including:
- Transplantation technique/type of hair transplantation treatment
- Number of grafts needed
- Hair density goal
- Clinic or doctor’s reputation
At Gro Clinics, we are committed to being as transparent about the costs of our hair transplant services as possible - with us, there’s no bill shock. You’ll know the total cost of your treatment before you commit to a treatment plan. No hidden fees. No price hikes.
Do I Need to Travel for a Consultation?
Your initial consultation with a Gro technician will be an obligation-free, cost-free meeting where you will learn about your recommended course of action for hair replenishment. From there, it is up to you what you choose to do with that information.
If you decide to proceed with Gro’s treatment plan and are not physically located in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth or Auckland, you will need to travel to one of our sites.
Can I pay for my hair transplant in instalments?
Yes. We offer flexible payment options through third-party finance providers. Conditions apply, and eligibility can be discussed with your consultant.

Understanding the Procedure
What is a hair transplant?
A hair transplant involves moving healthy hair follicles from one area of the scalp to another. At Gro, this is done using a technique called Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), performed or overseen by registered doctors.
How does a hair transplant work?
Hair follicles are extracted from the donor area and carefully implanted into areas of thinning or loss. Gro’s method uses precision tools and our internal follicle placement technique.
How Long Does a Hair Transplant Procedure Take?
The length of a hair transplant surgery depends on the amount of work and the number of grafts to be transplanted.
However, our PFP method strives to be as efficient as possible for our patients. That way, you can save on travel costs when coming and going from Townsville.
Is a hair transplant permanent?
When done correctly by a professional, a hair transplant's results should be permanent. It is important to check the qualifications and previous results of your chosen provider to determine the permanent success of their procedures.
Treatment Options
What other treatments do you offer besides hair transplants?
- Prescription haircare (following clinical approval)
- Growth Factor Therapy (e.g. PRF)
- Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT)
- Deep scalp cleansing treatments
- Home-use support products
Am I eligible for a hair transplant?
Eligibility depends on the cause and stage of your hair loss, your general health, and clinical suitability. A consultant can guide you through next steps.
Recovery & Results
What Is the Recovery Time After a Hair Transplant?
Mild redness, swelling or sensitivity may occur for a few days. Most people return to routine activities within 1–5 days. Your care team will provide personalised recovery guidance.
When Will I See Results From My Hair Transplant?
Visible growth at a hair transplant site will appear at different stages depending on the individual. However, you may begin to notice signs of growth around 3-4 months after treatment with proper aftercare.
It is common to experience some hair shedding during the first few months, but full results may begin to appear after 10-12 months.
Does a Hair Transplant Hurt?
The use of local anaesthesia in a hair transplant numbs the scalp and lessens the pain of the process. However, you may still feel some discomfort, swelling and soreness once the treatment has finished and the anaesthesia has worn off. Most clients report only mild discomfort. Any post-procedure sensitivity is temporary and part of the normal healing process.
