Innovative & Non-invasive

What is a Hair Transplant?

At Core Plastic Surgery in Birmingham Hair Transplants are performed with the NeoGraft system, an advanced technology that is more precise and effective than traditional approaches. Before introducing this semi-automated hair loss solution, patients had to endure extensive, painful procedures that often produced uneven results and noticeable scarring. Stories of adverse outcomes often led many patients to avoid hair transplantation altogether, opting for less reliable, simpler solutions.

About Hair Loss

To say hair loss is common might be an understatement. After all, 85% of men and 40% of women will experience varying degrees of hair loss during their lifetime.[1] And contrary to popular belief, hair loss doesn't just affect the older generations.

Researchers speculate that 25% of the men who experience hair loss will begin thinning before the age of 21.[2] Although most will experience hair loss, it's still a taboo subject and often becomes a major insecurity. For some, hair loss signifies a loss of youth. For others, a full head of hair is a sign of masculine or feminine beauty.

So, if you've noticed your hair looks thinner or your hairline is creeping back, you are certainly not alone. If this sounds like you, then you might already know that DIY hair loss treatments don't quite live up to their promises. But now, with the NeoGraft system, you have a choice when it comes to reversing your hair loss.

The Power Of NeoGraft

Your Hair Transplant Procedure

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), the approach perfected by NeoGraft, is when healthy hair follicles are relocated from donor areas of the head to bald spots or thinning regions. Usually, donor areas are along the sides and back of the head. Previous hair transplantation methods include follicular unit transplantation (FUT).

This procedure involves removing a strip of skin from the back of the head and plucking individual follicles from it. These follicles would then be transplanted to targeted areas around the crown and top of the head. One of FUT's most notable downsides is the noticeable linear scar that is left behind on the back of the patient's head. This scar limited hairstyles and could often be seen through light-colored hair. Not only does FUE avoid a noticeable linear scar, but it also offers quicker recovery and less post-operative discomfort.[3]

Rather than extracting hair follicles from a strip of skin, NeoGraft removes groups of follicles directly from the donor areas - one grouping is known as a graft. During a NeoGraft procedure, a transplantation technician uses the handheld NeoGraft device to extract the desired amount of grafts (typically around 1,500 to 2,000). This semi-automated device carefully relocates the grafts at a uniform depth, allowing for even results. With a hair transplant Birmingham patients can look forward to seeing a restored head of hair without the worry of a distracting scar.

Hair Transplant Frequently Asked Questions

NeoGraft and ARTAS are both types of Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedures, which involve individually removing hair follicles from the donor site for transplantation. However, there are key differences between the two techniques. NeoGraft utilizes advanced technology, enabling the surgeon to perform the procedure without creating manual incisions. This minimally invasive approach results in no visible scars and allows for a more precise grafting process, ensuring better follicle establishment and growth. On the other hand, ARTAS is not a handheld device but rather an automated machine. It operates robotically to extract healthy hair follicles from donor areas and then meticulously transplants them into thinning or balding areas. The ARTAS system calibrates to the specific area of the patient's head, calculating a personalized approach for the transplantation. While both techniques are effective, ARTAS offers the advantage of being almost entirely automated, reducing the room for error and ensuring consistent results. Patients who opt for ARTAS may experience a fuller head of hair with a shorter procedure time due to its precision and efficiency.

The cost of your hair transplants will depend on which FUE system we use in your procedure. We will discuss and determine the unique cost of your care during your initial consultation.
