This attention to detail results in seamless and natural-looking outcomes that patients can be proud of. The patient journey at Gro Clinics Melbourne is a comprehensive and supportive experience, designed to prioritize individual needs and comfort. It begins with a thorough consultation with a hair growth expert, who takes the time to discuss the patient’s goals, assess their level of hair loss, and develop a tailored treatment plan. The clinic prides itself on its transparent and educational approach, ensuring that patients are fully informed and comfortable at every stage of the process. From the initial consultation to the procedure itself, and through detailed aftercare and follow-up check-ins, the Gro Clinics team is dedicated to supporting patients throughout their hair restoration journey. To further enhance accessibility, Gro Clinics Melbourne offers a range of flexible payment plans, making it easier for individuals to invest in their long-term hair health.

FUE • 3000 Grafts • 4mo post-op
Solid clinic, good results
Had my FUE procedure (3000 grafts) at Gro Clinics about 4 months ago. The surgeon was skilled and efficient. The facility was professional and clean. Procedure took about a full day. Results are good — not perfect, but definitely a massive improvement. The hairline looks natural and density is decent. I might consider a small touch-up session in the future for the crown area, but overall I'm happy. $5,500 well spent in my opinion.Communication could have been a bit better during the recovery phase but the results make up for it.
Pros
- + Follow-up included
- + Detailed consultation
Cons
- − Swelling lasted a week
- − Waiting room was busy
Sapphire FUE • 4000 Grafts • 6mo post-op
Disappointing experience
I had high hopes for Gro Clinics but was left disappointed. The Sapphire FUE procedure (4000 grafts) itself was okay, but the consultation felt rushed and I don't think the hairline design was optimal. At 6 months post-op, results are below what was promised. Growth has been patchy in some areas. Total cost was $8,900.The clinic has been somewhat responsive to my concerns but I feel like I need a revision. Would not recommend without doing extensive research first.
Pros
- + Realistic expectations set
- + Modern equipment
- + Painless procedure
- + Minimal scarring
Cons
- − Communication delays
DHI • 3800 Grafts • 18mo post-op
Solid clinic, good results
Had my DHI procedure (3800 grafts) at Gro Clinics about 18 months ago. Dr. Dr. Adam personally handled everything and was incredibly skilled. The facility was professional and clean. Procedure took about 6-7 hours. Results are good — not perfect, but definitely a massive improvement. The hairline looks natural and density is decent. I might consider a small touch-up session in the future for the crown area, but overall I'm happy. The total came to $9,200 including everything — hard to beat that price.Communication could have been a bit better during the recovery phase but the results make up for it.
Pros
- + Good aftercare
- + Well-organized
- + Detailed consultation
- + Clean facility
Cons
- − Waiting room was busy
- − Shedding phase was stressful
