Limmer Hair Transplant Center is a San Antonio practice led by two board-certified dermatologists who both earned their medical degrees in Houston. Houston-area patients start from home with a virtual consult and a video consult, then drive about 3 hours west on I-10 or take a one-hour flight for FUT, FUE, or scalp micropigmentation.
Yes. Limmer Hair Transplant Center has no Houston office, but its San Antonio clinic is close enough to reach by car in an afternoon. Houston-area patients start with a virtual consult (photos) and a video consult and have pre-op labs drawn near home, so the trip itself centers on the procedure.
A board-certified dermatologist evaluates every patient, and prices are published in advance: FUT (strip) runs $6,000 to $9,900 and FUE runs $7,500 to $12,600, depending on graft count.
Houston has no shortage of hair restoration options. Whichever clinic you consider, these questions separate a medical practice from a sales process. Here is how Limmer Hair Transplant Center answers them.
| Question to ask | Why it matters | Limmer Hair Transplant Center's answer |
|---|---|---|
| Who examines me and plans the surgery? | Hair loss has many causes, and some are not surgical problems. | Dr. Krejci and Dr. Limmer, both board-certified dermatologists, meet with every patient. |
| Can I see prices before I call? | Published pricing makes it easier to compare clinics fairly. | Yes. FUT runs $6,000 to $9,900 and FUE $7,500 to $12,600, set on surgery day by grafts placed. |
| Will I get a diagnosis or a sales pitch? | Conditions that mimic pattern baldness need different treatment. | Surgery is recommended only when it is the right answer; medical therapy is discussed first. |
| How experienced is the surgical team? | Graft handling affects how well transplanted follicles survive. | The practice has provided hair transplants for over 30 years, with highly skilled technicians working alongside the physicians. |
| What happens after surgery? | Follow-up support matters while new grafts settle and grow in. | Take-home medication, a wound care packet, and 18 months of post-op care are included. |
| How long has the practice done this? | Track record and published methods signal real expertise. | The practice began follicular unit transplantation research in 1988 and published its methods in 1991. |
Houston is close enough that most patients can choose between the highway and a short flight.
Roughly 197 miles from downtown Houston, and less from Katy and the western suburbs already on I-10. Driving gives you flexibility to rest at home afterward, but plan for a driver if you receive sedating medication.
Southwest runs several nonstop flights a day from Houston Hobby to San Antonio International, including evening flights, so you can fly home the same night. The clinic is less than 10 minutes from San Antonio International Airport. If you would rather stay, the clinic has arranged rates at three hotels on Loop 410 near the airport, and the Residence Inn includes shuttle service.
A typical timeline for a Houston-area patient.
Send photos of the front, top, both sides, and back of your head so your case can be reviewed and scheduled correctly. Then meet Dr. Krejci by video. Consults are $200 to $350, applied toward your hair transplant if you are a candidate and book within a week.
Pre-op labs through CPL, which has Houston-area locations including Cypress, cost $150 and are due no later than three weeks before surgery. A 10% deposit holds your date. Planning FUT? Grow your hair to at least 1/2 to 1 inch to cover the stitches.
A board-certified dermatologist finalizes your plan and performs your FUT or FUE procedure. Pain medication for recovery is provided.
Fly home the same evening or drive back with a companion. The clinic recommends 3 days of relaxing. Staying very active in the first 36 hours raises the chance of forehead and facial swelling, so keep the drive home low-stress.
Most patients return to work within a week, and a hat covers the treated area. Gentle scalp showering resumes on day 7; swimming and sports wait 10 to 14 days.
Houston's long, humid summers make the first two weeks after a transplant a little different than in a dry climate. These habits keep the grafts protected and the routine simple.
A loose cap covers the treated area for FUT and all but the lower shaved donor area for FUE. Pick a breathable one that does not press on the grafts.
No hair washing for the first 3 days, then gentle showering of the scalp from day 7. Muggy days do not change the timeline.
Swimming, Galveston beach days, and all sports wait 10 to 14 days. Walking and light activity can resume within a day if comfortable.
Ask your physician before returning to workouts or yard work that leave you drenched, and keep the scalp covered outdoors.
All procedures take place at the San Antonio clinic. Prices below come from Limmer Hair Transplant Center's published price list; your final cost depends on the number of grafts placed.
| Option | What it involves | Common reason to choose it | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| FUT (strip) | One thin donor strip, microscopically divided into follicular units. | Maximum grafts per session; longer hair hides the line. | $6,000 to $9,900 |
| FUE | Units removed individually, leaving tiny dot-shaped scars. | Short haircuts; the donor area is shaved. | $7,500 to $12,600 |
| Beard and mustache | Grafts placed in one to three facial areas. | Patchy growth or scars in facial hair. | $6,000 to $10,500 |
| Eyebrows | Grafts restore brow shape and fullness. | Overplucked, thin, or scarred brows. | $5,000 to $7,000 |
| Scalp micropigmentation | Medical pigment mimics the look of follicles. | Non-surgical density or a shaved look. | Quoted at consult |
Also treated: hair loss in women, African-American hair transplants, scar repair, and non-surgical hair growth treatments. A $150 pre-op lab fee applies to surgery, and CareCredit financing is available. Full details are on the price list.
Both physicians earned their medical degrees at the University of Texas medical school in Houston, now McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston, before training in dermatology.
Patients travel to Limmer Hair Transplant Center from across the Houston metro and the upper Gulf Coast. Communities on the west side, like Katy, are already on I-10 and shave time off the drive.
What Houston-area patients ask before planning the trip. For general topics, see the full hair transplant FAQ and recovery guide.
No. Every procedure is performed at the clinic at 6810 West Ave, Suite A, San Antonio, TX 78213. Houston-area patients start with a virtual consult and a video consult from home, then travel to San Antonio for surgery.
About 197 miles, or roughly 3 hours west on I-10 depending on traffic. Southwest Airlines also flies nonstop from Houston Hobby (HOU) to San Antonio (SAT) in about 1 hour, and Houston and San Antonio share the same time zone.
The clinic's guidance is that you may drive yourself after the procedure as long as no sedating medication was taken. Because the drive is about 3 hours and the clinic recommends 3 days of rest, consider bringing someone to drive you home or flying. The clinic is less than 10 minutes from San Antonio International Airport, and evening flights to Hobby mean you can be home the same night.
Not necessarily. Start with a virtual consult: send photos online so our team can review your case and schedule the right visit. Then meet Dr. Krejci by video, or in person if you prefer. Video and in-person consults are $200 to $350, depending on the visit, and the fee is applied toward your hair transplant if you are a candidate and book within a week.
Pre-op labs are run through Clinical Pathology Laboratories (CPL), the clinic's contracted lab, which has patient service centers in the Houston area, including Cypress. Labs are due no later than three weeks before surgery, and the lab fee is $150.
Houston patients pay the same published prices as local patients: FUT (strip) runs $6,000 to $9,900 and FUE runs $7,500 to $12,600, depending on graft count, plus a $150 pre-op lab fee. Prices include take-home medication, a wound care packet, and 18 months of post-op care. Financing is available through CareCredit and PatientFi.
Patients weigh three things: a board-certified dermatologist evaluates every case and diagnoses the cause of the hair loss, pricing is published before you ever call, and the practice has worked in follicular unit transplantation since 1988.
Keep the grafts covered with a loose, breathable hat outdoors, skip pools, the beach, and sports for 10 to 14 days, and follow the wash schedule: no hair washing for 3 days and gentle showering of the scalp from day 7. Ask your physician before returning to workouts or yard work that leave you heavily sweating.
Start with a virtual consult from home, then meet a dermatologist by video before you ever get on I-10.
