 NeoGraft
 Hair Replacement System
HOW DO I KNOW IF I AM A CANDIDATE?
Candidates for hair restoration surgery are those individuals
with hair loss that have sufficient donor hair on the back of
the scalp to transplant into the frontal balding areas. The
best candidates are those men and women with only frontal
or partial hair loss and with adequate donor hair. Your doctor
will assess the amount of coverage needed to give you the
appearance you desire.
HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS?
The science behind grafting is quite simple. Hair follicles are
taken from the hair at the back of the head that is genetically
programmed to continue to grow. The follicles that hold your
transplanted hair are living tissues that grow cyclically. Like
normal hair growth, transplantation is an ongoing process
that requires a commitment of time. Once the hair follicle
has been implanted into the balding area, the grafted hair will
stay in place for about two to three weeks before shedding.
After shedding, the new growth will begin in 3-4 months,
this is normal and an important part of the new hair growth
process. After that time period, the hair will continue to grow
normally, your result will look healthy and natural.
HOW IS NEOGRAFT PERFORMED?
Hair transplantation is a surgical process in which hair is
taken from the back of the head and replaced in areas
where hair loss has occurred. The NeoGraft device uses
a special technology that is able to quickly and painlessly
remove the hair follicles from the back of the head and
implant them to balding areas. NeoGraft uses a controlled
pneumatic pressure to slide out the graft smoothly, so there
is no pulling or twisting which can risk damaging the graft.
Because the NeoGraft transplant is faster than other out of
date methods, the grafts can be re-implanted sooner which
keeps them more robust, increasing the success of the
grafting process.
WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?
Unlike the old fashioned “punch grafting” technique that often
produces an altered texture or unnatural straight lines (corn
row) of hair appearance, NeoGraft has dramatically improved
the results of hair restoration surgery. Grafting sessions are
designed to replace the lost hair, refine the thinning hairline
and provide a healthy and natural appearance. Results will
vary depending upon your personal level of baldness.
HOW LONG WILL IT LAST?
Most men start to develop male pattern baldness at
approximately 40-45 years of age. For women, they
may reach the age of 55-60 before their balding pattern
manifests. Hair loss does not stop after a transplantation,
some people will need continuing maintenance and further
sessions will likely be required, particularly if your balding
patterns continue with age.
Progressive hair loss or the desire for more density may
require more transplants. An estimate of balding pattern and
the number of procedures needed will be discussed during
your consultation.
SHOULD I HAVE ANY CONCERNS?
Hair transplant surgery is considered
a minor procedure. There are rarely
any complications and those that
may occur can easily be dealt
with by your doctor.
