The Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique is one of the most innovative and popular methods of hair transplantation available. With the ability to move individual hair follicles as opposed to larger strips of hair, the results of FUE are often incredibly natural. FUE is a technique that is often performed in conjunction with many advanced hair transplant technologies that may include the use of infrared cameras, calculations for the ideal number and density of transferred follicular units, and software to help determine the precise angle and depth of each transplanted follicular unit to produce the most natural-looking results. The ARTAS® Robotic System is one of these integral technologies, and it allows Dr. Ross to optimize the outcome of FUE. With the combination of the ARTAS® Robotic System, the FUE technique, and Dr. Ross’s extensive skills and experience with hair transplantation, the harvesting of individual hair follicles can be facilitated in a manner that greatly minimizes scarring at the donor site. Consequently, patients who undergo a hair transplant procedure with the ARTAS®Robotic System and FUE can typically maintain very short hairstyles with virtually no noticeable scarring or evidence of surgery.
Benefits of Hair Loss Treatment with the ARTAS® Robotic System
With the state-of-the-art ARTAS® Robotic System, Dr. Ross can give both men and women an effective solution for hair loss that ultimately allows patients to cut and style their own natural hair in any way they please. Many of our patients who undergo the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure with the ARTAS® Robotic System report a boost in confidence thanks to a fuller, thicker head of hair. Additionally, the placement of the individual follicular units using this treatment method is often so precise and natural-looking that others never need to know that you have had a hair loss treatment performed.
Further benefits of the ARTAS® Robotic System with FUE can include:
- Scalpel-free procedure
- Zero sutures or staples
- Scarring that is nearly invisible regardless of hairstyle
- Fast recovery
- Permanent results
Finally, compared to manual FUE, the ARTAS® Robotic System can significantly improve the yield of hair grafts transplanted while simultaneously reducing the time it takes Dr. Ross to complete the procedure.
