Love Is Blind season 6 star Jimmy Presnell is giving fans a behind-the-scenes look at his hair transplant journey, revealing the details and cost of the popular procedure.
On Friday, July 25, Jimmy took to TikTok to share his experience, explaining why he chose to stay in the U.S. for the surgery, despite the higher cost.
The Cost of the Procedure
Jimmy, 29, explained that he opted to stay in the U.S. for his hair transplant procedure, which is typically more expensive than going abroad. He chose Solve Clinics in River North, Chicago, where the cost is roughly $5 per graft. He received a total of around 2,000 grafts, bringing the total cost of the procedure to $10,000 to $11,000.
While the procedure itself was costly, Jimmy also mentioned follow-up treatments, which added to his decision to stay in the U.S.
He’s been undergoing PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) treatments, which typically cost between $400 to $600 each. These treatments are optional but played a role in his choice of clinic and location.
Why He Didn’t Go to Turkey
Many people opt to travel to Turkey for hair transplants due to the significantly lower costs, but Jimmy explained why he decided against this option.
While he was quoted prices between $3,000 to $5,000, which included flight and hotel accommodations, he noted that the procedures abroad typically do not include ongoing consultations or the opportunity for direct follow-up with a surgeon.
Jimmy wanted more personalized care and communication with his medical team, which he felt was an important factor in his decision to stay stateside.
Documenting the Recovery Process
Jimmy has been open about his recovery journey, sharing regular updates with his fans. In December, he posted a TikTok showing the immediate results of his procedure. At that time, he admitted to some swelling and dryness, but reassured followers that he wasn’t in significant pain.
He also shared that, despite the discomfort, the early results looked better than expected, and he was anticipating more swelling in the coming days.
Why Jimmy Chose a Natural Look
In his TikTok updates, Jimmy explained that he didn’t want to have a hairline that looked too youthful or artificial. “I didn’t want to try to have a hairline of a 17 or 18-year-old,” he said. “It’s not realistic.” His goal was to have thicker, healthier-looking hair that suited his age and appearance, which is why he chose this procedure.
Jimmy Presnell’s openness about the costs and recovery process of his hair transplant highlights the importance of finding the right balance between cost, care, and results.
While his procedure was not cheap, his decision to stay in the U.S. and work with a trusted clinic has allowed him to take charge of his appearance with confidence. As he continues to document his journey, fans can follow along and gain insight into the world of cosmetic surgery and the realities behind the process.
