Neograft
Having placed over 500,000 grafts with the device, automated FUE has proven to be a superior alternative to decreasing the morbidity associated with strip surgery. You must consider the experience of the physician using the device. It has a steep learning curve and in the right hands, much like many other procedures, offers a safe alternative to the conventional strip method.

NeoGraft hair transplant method
NeoGraft is just a device. There is no device in the world that can replace the judgement and artistry skills of the doctor doing the procedure. Due to today's aggressive marketing techniques by companies there are tendencies to make the doctor irrelevant. No machine can replace years of experience and surgical judgement.

It is the best option for hair transplantation
I have the longest experience ni the Midwest with Neograft FUE hair transplantation having started right adfter FDA approval almost 2 years ago. It is a game changer in hair transplantation universe - if not for any other reason for this one _ NO VISIBLE SCAR! I cannot imagine why would anyone want a permanent scar on the back of the head that is there forever! It also finally allows to place large amounts (up to 2500) of FUE grafts in one day , not possible with manual method.

Neograft a tool, not a substitute for experience
Neograft is a device which helps technicians remove individual follicular units from the donor area in the back of the head. It involves the use of suction to remove the grafts.

If you go to a doctor who is advertising the Neograft device, just be sure that he or she has many years' experience in hair transplantation, regardless of incoporating this device into their practice. He or she must...

Neograft is an alternative type of hair restoration surgery
Neograft is a system which uses follicular unit extraction instead of the tradtional strip method. There is generally quicker healing and less risk of complications. However, the procedure is time consuming and usually more expensive than the strip surgery.

Neograft Hair Transplant is a Folicular Unit Extraction Hair Transplant
In our practice, we have been performing FUE for a while now. FUE, which stands for Follicular Unit Extraction, is a method of removing each individual hair graft without the need of making a strip cut on the back of the scalp. We do not see any difference between using a Neograft device or using an automated punch biopsy device to remove each individual grafts. My only concern with the Neograft device is that it uses suction to pull out the hair,...

Neograft Hair Transplant, FUE by any other name?
The Neograft hair transplant is basically an FUE [follicular Unit Extraction] type hair transplant with a twist for marketing. Yes, the technology is great for the physician, not necessarily the patient--the Neograft unit allows harvest and placement of singular follicular units with decreased staff time, no suture techniques and quick healing.
So does the other FUE hair transplant techniques--no suture techniques and quick healing. Agree with Dr. Mayer, see an...

Just marketing, go to the most experienced hair restoration surgeon
The neograft is just doing a lot of marketing and PR lately, i actually feel it is better to do the grafts by hand for the best results.
