Why Choose Neograft Hair Restoration?

The NeoGraft system is the first and only FDA cleared follicular unit harvesting and implantation system. The NeoGraftâ system delivers automation of the FUE technique, the most advanced technique in the hair transplant industry.

This revolutionary system uses pneumatic controls to precisely extract complete individual hair follicles which can be immediately transplanted to the selected areas of the scalp. The NeoGraftâ automated hair transplantation system is the only complete harvesting system on the market and has the only ‘NO TOUCH’ implantation technology.

Hair Restoration with NeoGraft technology provides absolute exact harvesting and placement, delivering repeatable results. With NeoGraft’s technology each follicle is removed individually while the patient is comfortable. A natural looking head of hair is created with this minimally-invasive procedure.

Benefits of the Fue Hair Transplant

• FUE hair transplant is a very safe, minimally invasive, relatively minor procedure
• Minimal bleeding and fewer complications than with the “strip” method
• Procedure is performed with local anesthetic and no intravenous or intra-muscular sedation is required
• Patients experience minimal discomfort, no scalpel incision, no sutures, no linear scar and quick recovery times

And Many More!

The NeoGraft Automated FUE is also a useful procedure to fix visible linear scars from previous “strip” surgeries. FUE can be used to ‘fill in’ or camouflage those old scars by transplanting new follicles into the area.

What is the Neograft Procedure?

The NeoGraft procedure is performed using controlled pneumatic pressure to smoothly extract hair grafts. This technique allows implants to be transferred more quickly, maintaining their robustness and facilitating the best possible results.

Before beginning, the doctor administers local anesthesia into the scalp. This medication numbs nerve endings to patients do not feel discomfort, only mild pressure as grafts are harvested and transplanted.

The treatment area is rinsed and a light dressing may be applied.

Donor hair is removed from the back of the scalp using pneumatic pressure.

Follicular grafts are extracted and grouped by length and diameter. This increases follicular take rate.

The recipient site is created in the thinning area. Care is taken to create sites at the ideal orientation, right direction, and proper angle based on the patient’s hairline and goals.

Hair grafts are placed into balding or thinning areas.

New grafts are evaluated to ensure a proper position.

Is There Any Recovery Time After Neograft Hair Restoration?

Because there are no incisions or stitches involved in the NeoGraft procedure, recovery is must faster than traditional hair transplants. Initially, the grafts may feel tender and look slightly raised. These side effects typically resolve within a week. Some patients also notice mild scabbing, which should also subside within one week. Most patients can resume most normal activities within two weeks. After two weeks, strenuous activities may be resumed.

How Long Does It Take for a Hair Transplant to Grow?

After hair transplantation, grafted hair remains intact for two to three weeks. The hair then sheds as a natural part of the new growth process. After transplanted hair sheds, it takes 3 to 4 months for new hair to grow in its normal cycle. As this occurs, hair grows in looking full and natural.

How Much Does a Hair Transplant Cost?

The cost of NeoGraft hair transplantation is determined based on several factors. These include:

• The physician’s training and expertise.
• The severity of hair loss.
• The characteristics of donor hair, including thickness, texture, and hair color.
• Patient goals for hair restoration.

Does Insurance Cover Hair Transplants?

Hair transplant treatment may be covered by insurance only in limited cases involving reconstruction related to trauma of the head or scalp. In most situations, insurance companies do not cover hair restoration treatments.

What Are the Risks of Neograft?

FUE hair transplant is very unlikely to cause serious complications thanks to its minimally-invasive nature. No incisions are made and no stitches are needed to complete the NeoGraft procedure. Therefore, risks are low and easily managed if slight complications do occur. More often, patients experience mild side effects after FUE hair transplant. These include soreness, redness, swelling, temporary drainage, and scabbing. Side effects may last a few hours or a few days.
