Hair loss is a common condition in both men and women and can take a negative toll on your self-esteem. If you are living with thinning hair and wish to reverse the balding process, NeoGraft can help! Read on to learn more about this amazing procedure and what it can do for you.
What is NeoGraft?
The NeoGraft procedure uses a hair transplant system to help patients achieve a fuller, thicker head of hair. It consists of 4 steps. These steps include:
- Donor Hair Removal- During this step, hair is removed from the donor area on the back of the head. This area is genetically programmed to resist testosterone.
- Follicular Unit Extraction- Next, each graft is extracted with the same consistency in diameter and length for optimal results.
- Creation of the Recipient Sites- Then, the surgeon will create recipient sites in the proper direction and orientation according to your hair transplant plan.
- Placement of the Hair Graft- Finally, the follicular units are carefully separated and transplanted into the thinning areas of the scalp.
Who is a Candidate?
Healthy men and women who are dealing with hair thinning or balding can benefit from the NeoGraft procedure. Candidates should have sufficient donor hair on the back of the scalp to transplant into balding areas. Those with more donor hair can typically expect fuller results. It is also important that candidates have realistic cosmetic goals.
