Neograft vs. FUE
If you’re considering hair restoration, deciding which treatment is best for your needs and goals can be challenging. The best type of hair transplant is what will produce the best results for YOU. Some have early signs of thinning, while others have a receding hairline or balding areas. A consultation will Dr. Heil can help you choose the best method.
The two most popular are the FUE and NeoGraft™ techniques. FUE (follicular unit extraction) refers to a process in which healthy, producing hair follicles are harvested from the back or sides of the head and transplanted into thinning areas. NeoGraft is one of our advanced FUE hair transplant systems that uses a specially automated tool to harvest single healthy follicles from the donor site at the back of your head rather than from a strip.
Neograft and FUE are both hair transplantation techniques
Hair transplantations are surgeries that take hair follicles from one part of your scalp, usually from the back or sides, and implant them into balding areas.
FUE hair transplants take individual hair follicles from your scalp and implant them into other body sites. Doing so makes the hair in the new area appear thicker while avoiding the “hair plug” look. Additionally, FUE does not leave a large scar as older hair transplant methods do.
Neograft is one of the most modern implantation techniques and is a semi-automated version of FUE. It is considered more effective than other FUE techniques because it removes some human error associated with the surgery.
How Neograft and FUE are different
Both FUE and Neograft involve similar techniques. With FUE, the surgeon removes individual follicles one by one, carefully transplanting them to the desired area of the head. With Neograft, the surgeon is assisted with a specialized hair transplant device. This makes the hair transplantation process safer, faster, and more effective. Additionally, Neograft reduces the risk of user error by offering technology-assisted hair follicle removal.
Choosing your hair loss treatment
Suppose you have been experiencing hair loss and male pattern baldness and need to restore healthy hair follicles to balding areas. In that case, FUE methods such as ARTAS or NeoGraft can significantly improve.
A private consultation with Dr. Heil is the only way to know what is best for you. During your initial consultation, Dr. Heil will listen to your goals, discuss the best hair restoration options for you, and address any concerns. Together, you will draft a game plan to achieve your results.
