I think Robots and computerization brings price down drastically as it may require minimum supervision . I feel it should hve been cheaper than fut. Unless insurance is driving up prices. Will prices for hair transplants using robots come down in future.

Answer: Robotic Hair Transplant Pricing While we often think of machines and robots being 'smarter' or more 'accurate' than humans, this is not the case when it comes to hair transplantation. The use of robotic tools during hair transplant surgery actually increases the patient's risk of excessive scarring, damage to the graft, and low graft survival rate. The robotic technology has not advanced enough to match the quality that is capable from a skilled and experienced hair restoration surgeon's hand. Some things to look out for with robotic transplantation is an oversized punch tool, an over quotation of grafts, and little surgeon involvement. Due to the lack of preciseness, the oversized punch which increases scarring, and the damage caused to follicles from inexperienced staff typically results in poor results, I do not use any of the robotic tools such as Artas or Neograft. From my experience, these machines are not only extremely expensive (resulting in the higher cost you see) but yield poor results. The surgeon most likely chooses a robotic option when they are not confident in their skills or abilities to perform hair transplantation by hand.

Answer: Cost of cosmetic surgery is highly variable depending on the doctor and the type of procedure. Robotic surgery is usually Cost of cosmetic surgery is highly variable depending on the doctor and the type of procedure. Robotic surgery may cost more because the robot itself costs over $250,000 and requires constant maintenance and upgrades.
