Frequently Asked Questions
AuraGraft is the name of an advanced surgical technology that assists surgeons performing minimally invasive hair restoration surgery (FUE). AuraGraft is an innovative device designed to enhance the physician’s speed and efficiency increasing graft viability while reducing transection rates. The device also counts the grafts and protects them in a sterile controlled environment until they are ready to be implanted.
The surgeon using the AuraGraft hand piece, gently extracts individual micro hair grafts from the back of your head. The grafts are immediately collected, counted, sorted and held in a sterile controlled environment. These grafts are then implanted into the balding area to regrow thick, healthy, natural hair.
There are several older technologies currently available to surgeons including automated devices, and even a robot however, they are still fundamentally slow. The AuraGraft technology was designed to provide better visualization for the physician, extract, and count the grafts automatically and eliminate a lot of the time-consuming physical manipulation of the instrumentation and the grafts themselves. This revolutionary new technology can reduce harvesting time by 1/3rd of the other existing technologies. The time savings allows the surgeon to perform larger cases in less time. The follicles can be re-implanted sooner which increases the viability of the new grafts.
Your new hair grafts will grow in the areas that are bald or thinning, according to a well thought out strategic plan, creating a fuller, natural looking head of hair. Since it’s your real hair, it looks completely natural, restoring a more youthful appearance and confidence levels.
No, a physician can harvest hair grafts using the AuraGraft by shaving small areas. If you hair is short, it will grow in quickly (7 to 14 days). If you have long hair, the donor site can be concealed.
No. It’s an in-office, minimally invasive outpatient procedure rather than an invasive surgery. The surgeon will use a local anesthetic to numb the area he/she is working. Most of the time you can watch videos or listen to music while the procedure is going on.
The procedure heals quickly and is not painful. You can return to work in a couple of days, with very few activity restrictions after the procedure.
Newly transplanted hair grows naturally in several phases. New hairs are seen in about three months after the procedure and will continue to grow. At about six months you will see a noticeable improvement with full growth at about 12 months.
No. Because the grafts are removed in individual micro grafts rather than a large strip requiring stitches, scarring is not visible. Even if you wear your hair short, there is no visible telltale linear scars associated with older traditional methods.
Yes. Because AuraGraft is a minimally invasive procedure, it is a viable option for both men and women looking to restore their own real hair.
The majority of hair loss patients are candidates for the AuraGraft procedure, particularly those who would like to wear very short haircuts, want the least amount of activity restriction after their procedure, or have had a prior strip procedure and need a scar camouflage. Consult a trained surgeon using the AuraGraft technology to find out more.
Because of the technological advancements and the increase in efficiency of the AuraGraft device, the harvesting portion of the procedure is 1/3rd less than other FUE methods. This means a physician can harvest more grafts in a single session and significantly reduce the amount of time the grafts are in a storage solution. A typical case will take about 7 hours.
