How Does the NeoGraft® Hair Transplantation System Work for Receding Hairlines?

Do you have a receding hairline? Are you tired of wearing hats or feeling self-conscious about your appearance?

In this guide, board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Vu Ho reviews NeoGraft and how it works to help restore your hairline. Learn about your hair restoration options in Plano, TX.

What does a receding hairline look like?

Receding hairlines are mainly caused by genetics, but hormone changes, stress, and even certain medical conditions all contribute to this form of hair loss. The problem typically starts with thinning hair at the forehead and temples, gradually moving backward toward the crown of the head. This can result in a pronounced forehead or even a "widow's peak."

When prescription drugs and over-the-counter remedies fail to produce results, people with receding hairlines often turn to hair transplant surgery. However, traditional methods of hair transplantation involve removing a strip of skin from the back of the head and grafting it onto areas with thinning or no hair. This can leave behind a linear scar and require significant downtime for healing. NeoGraft is a less invasive alternative that is gentler on both the scalp and the donor area.

How does NeoGraft work?

NeoGraft is an automated follicular unit extraction (FUE) system that harvests individual hair follicles from the back of the head. These follicles are then carefully moved to the areas of hair loss, such as the temples and crown. Dr. Ho uses specialized techniques to carefully place the follicles and create a realistic new hairline.

What are the benefits of NeoGraft?

There are several advantages of choosing the NeoGraft Hair Transplantation System for your hair restoration needs. First and foremost, NeoGraft does not leave behind a linear scar. This means you can wear your hair short without worrying about visible scarring in McKinney or Frisco, TX. And since follicles are extracted and transplanted one at a time, the results look seamless. Patients at Beyond Beautiful often report that their friends and family cannot tell they had a hair transplant.

What happens during a NeoGraft appointment?

During a consultation with Dr. Ho in Plano, TX, we will carefully examine your receding hairline and scalp to determine if NeoGraft is the right way to move forward. We also discuss your medical history and any current medications or supplements. Once we ensure your candidacy, we can provide detailed pre- and post-operative instructions to ensure the best possible outcomes.

On the day of your appointment, Dr. Ho will begin by using a local anesthetic to numb the donor area. This ensures that you are comfortable throughout the extraction process. Once enough hair follicles have been harvested, they are sorted into groups based on their size and shape. The transplant can take several hours, depending on how many follicles need to be moved.
