How Does a NeoGraft Hair Transplantation Work?
In a NeoGraft hair transplantation, the goal of treatment is to remove individual hair follicles from an area on your head with fuller and permanent hair growth and then transplant the hair to balding or thinning areas. The innovative procedure uses patented technology and the experienced hands of your top surgeon to perform a series of steps that include:
Consultation A NYC doctor listens to your hair loss concerns, assesses your symptoms of baldness and reviews your medical history to identify any underlying issues that need to be treated before proceeding with a NeoGraft hair transplantation
Preparation Before the NeoGraft hair transplant, a hair transplant doctor may advise you to stop using topical hair treatments for a few weeks and instead use a specific prescription shampoo. You also must avoid smoking and drinking alcohol for days prior to the surgery. You must stop specific medications, like blood thinners
Hair extraction procedure In the first phase of the procedure, a Manhattan doctor identifies the best area to harvest hair follicles and shortens hair in the donor area if it’s too long. Then, your top Manhattan doctor uses the NeoGraft machine to harvest hair follicles. The system uses pneumatic pressure to remove donor hair, which is less painful than the manual process
Transplant procedure After the extraction, a hair surgeon separates each follicle and transplants the hair follicles on the designated recipient sites
Post-surgery After the anesthetic wears off, you may feel some slight pain or discomfort. The doctor may prescribe pain medication or recommend over-the-counter pain relievers
Every NeoGraft hair restoration procedure is unique, so your recovery process and time may vary. Some things to expect during recovery include:
- Some slight swelling and discomfort that disappear in days
- You’re instructed to avoid washing and combing your hair for the first day
- Avoid touching the transplanted area with your hands or picking at any small scabs that develop
- Avoid strenuous activities for about a week
- If your daily work isn’t strenuous, you can resume your duties the next day, but you may be advised to cover your head
- Avoid exposing the transplanted follicles to direct sunlight
A follicular unit extraction is the safest and most effective hair transplant method today. Dr. Linkov is one of the most recommended doctors for hair transplant for women and for men.
