NeoGraft Robotic Hair Restoration Treatments

NeoGraft, a division of the company Advanced Tissue Sciences, was founded in 2001 by Dr. Robert Bernstein and his team at ATS to develop robotic hair restoration technology for use on patients with male pattern baldness. The first product developed by this group was NeoGraft FUE, which has been used successfully since its introduction in 2003. In 2004, NeoGraft introduced their second product, NeoGraft Strip Surgery, which allows surgeons to perform strip surgery using only one incision instead of two or three as required by traditional methods. This revolutionary new technique makes it possible to remove large amounts of donor tissue from multiple areas simultaneously without having to make additional incisions. Since then, NeoGraft has continued to innovate and improve upon existing technologies while developing several other products that are currently under development. How Does It Work? The NeoGraft system consists of an automated robot arm mounted onto a mobile cart. Using computer-controlled motors, the robot can move up to four times faster than human hands and accurately place grafts into precise locations within the scalp. Once placed, the grafts remain securely attached until they have grown together over time. During the procedure, the surgeon uses a handheld device called a needle driver to create small holes through the skin where the grafts will be inserted. These tiny wounds heal quickly and do not require stitches. After placing each graft, the robot moves down to deposit them into position.
