Well
it’s pretty simple. A robot never gets tired. Sure, hair transplant can be fun
but after harvesting a several hundred follicles the hand of a human gets a bit
tired. Robots can gather hair follicles quicker and with less pain and in most
cases less cost to the patient. This new robot plucks hair follicles from the
back and sides of the head so they can be moved to the top and front of balding
areas.
It
normally takes 5 to 6 hours to individually harvest, by hand, the 1,000
follicles needed to build a full head of hair.
Hair surgery is time consuming. Most hair surgeons remove a whole strip
of scalp and separate out the follicles under a microscope. Strip surgery is
painful and takes weeks or months to heal versus just a couple of days' healing
time and less scarring with individual follicular-unit extraction. The new
ARTAS robot decides which follicles to collect and plucks them out as the
doctor stands by to check its work. The surgeon can watch from the same room or
via a remote monitor.
Time
passes quick as the robot does its thing. "It's certainly less tedious
than doing it by hand”. According to Roger Bassin MD of Tampa Hair MD the ARTAS
robot system is a great innovation and can be used in many cases but for some
patients Neograft is a better fit. But there is one thing for sure the ‘Strip
Method ‘is gone forever. Today there is No more Scalpels and No more stitches
and No more pain and if all that is not good enough ‘the patient heals way
faster in just a couple days versus the weeks it used to take. Yes the cure for
baldness is here today.
The ARTAS robot is approved by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration. The ARTAS robotic hair transplant machine cost is
$200,000, but because it saves the doctor time the cost to the patient is
actually less than most other methods. Tampa
Hair MD also offers the Neograft system these two systems are the highest technologies
available. The Physicians and technicians at Tampa Hair MD are highly
experienced. As any procedure practice
really does make perfect.
Anyone
can buy a Neograft or ARTAS machine. But who has the
experience? Tampa Hair MD.
