HOW IS THE NEOGRAFT HAIR TRANSPLANT PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
NeoGraft is a breakthrough hair restoration technology known for being quick, painless, and effective. It is performed on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia. NeoGraft is so comfortable for most clients that they are able to rest, relax, watch movies, or read during their NeoGraft session. Below we will explore the different phases of NeoGraft and what you can expect at each juncture.
Step 1: Extracting donor hairs
The first step of NeoGraft is to extract viable hair follicles that can be transferred to their target recipient zones. NeoGraft hair restoration utilizes a powerful pneumatic pressure wand to painlessly remove units of 1-4 donor hairs from the back of the scalp. The precise region where the donor hairs are extracted will vary from client to client, based on gender, age, and other factors. NeoGraft’s algorithms ensure that the selected grafts are uniform in size, increasing their likelihood of being successfully implanted. There are no sutures or incisions involved with NeoGraft, and no linear scarring.
Step 2: Creating recipient sites
The next step is to prepare your scalp to receive the hair grafts. This means creating recipient sites that correspond to a predesigned transplantation map customized for your unique preferences. Each recipient site is carefully groomed in order to maximize the success of your hair transplant. The incisions used are so tiny that they are not typically visible to the naked eye. Thus the result appears seamless and natural.
Step 3: Placing the hair grafts
In step 3, the follicular hair grafts are arranged by size and then transplanted individually into their new homes with meticulous care. The hairs are placed in a way that resembles the client’s natural hair growth pattern and looks authentic. NeoGraft results in the most organic-looking outcome, thanks to the painstaking process employed from start to finish.
Step 4: After your procedure
After NeoGraft, you will receive instructions for showering, sleeping, exercising, going out in the sun, and many other important aspects of your recovery. Follow your practitioner’s instructions to ensure long-lasting, successful results.
Your scalp may feel sore for the first week, as the punctured incisions at the recipient sites slowly shed their scabs. Within 10 days, the new hairs will be firmly rooted and you can resume your normal activities.
Step 5: Enjoying your results
Hair grows in cycles, so be advised that you may shed your initial transplant hairs before they grow back stronger and thicker. At about 3 months post-transplant, you will see a shift in your hair growth pattern, and by 6 months, your new locks will be luxurious and healthy. At 12 months, you will see your final hair transplantation results at their peak.
