What Can the Robot Not Replace in Hair Restoration
Published on March 14, 2013 byRobots are meant to perform repeated, technically precise work that a human hand cannot perform reliably. In this case the ARTAS Robotic FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) technology does an incredible job at harvesting hairs with utmost precision in a distribution pattern that affords maximal camouflage in an individual who wants to keep his hair short.

Who is a Candidate for the ARTAS Robot and Who Is Not
Published on January 30, 2013 byI hope that by reading my last few blogs that you do not believe that the Robot is ideal for all individuals interested in undergoing a hair transplant.

ARTAS Robotic FUE System
Published on November 4, 2012 byThe ARTAS system is the latest in the development of the FUE (follicular unit excision) method, also referred to as FUE Hair Transplant. Traditionally, a linear strip is taken from the back of the head and if done well (which I do), the incision should not be detectable unless the hair is shorn very close […]
