How Is ARTAS iX Robotic Hair Restoration Better Than Older Transplant Methods?

The ARTAS iX Robotic System is the next generation of world-class technology that elevates the hair restoration process to a new level. The Edge For Men is one of the first hair restoration centers in the world and the only center in the Midwest to offer the ARTAS iX Robotic System.

Male pattern alopecia, hair loss, affects 85% of men by the age of 50. Hair transplantation is a procedure that yields permanent results. Studies report that men who undergo a hair transplant have a 96% approval rating for this procedure. This helps to boost their confidence and self-esteem.

Hair transplants have evolved over the past 3 decades. Phases that have been seen are the plug transplants of the early 1990s, followed by the strip or FUT procedure that left a long linear scar on the back of the scalp and a long recovery with significant discomfort.

Over the past decade, FUE, or follicular unit extraction, has become very popular as individual hair grafts are harvested using a punch tool or device from the back of the scalp and then manually placed. This is a very long, tedious process that can be fraught with human fatigue and error.

FUE procedures have the advantage of a rapid recovery with minimal discomfort while avoiding the long linear scar of the FUT procedure.

As the most advanced FUE procedure for hair restoration, the ARTAS iX Robotic System uses advanced vision systems and artificial intelligence to achieve a result that requires precision and is free from human fatigue and error. Since there is no excision of skin like in the FUT strip procedure, the recovery is rapid with minimal discomfort.

During this procedure, the ARTAS advanced vision system and artificial intelligence precisely harvest premium grafts, which contain multiple hair follicles. These follicles are then precisely placed by the ARTAS system to restore a natural, aesthetic appearance.

A team of hair restoration specialists led by Richard Moore, M.D. will perform this office-based procedure. Our commitment is to get you the optimal result to restore your confidence and self-esteem.
