NeoGraft® Hair Transplant

If you’re seeking a minimally invasive, natural-looking hair loss solution, a NeoGraft hair transplant may be the answer. Dr. Wayne Yamahata offers this advanced procedure in Sacramento and Granite Bay, California, combining state-of-the-art technology with his expertise to deliver fuller, natural-looking hair and a renewed sense of confidence.

What Is the NeoGraft Hair Transplant Procedure?

NeoGraft is an advanced hair restoration procedure for men and women using Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technology. Unlike traditional hair transplant surgery, NeoGraft is automated, precise, and does not leave a linear scar. This innovative procedure involves harvesting individual hair follicles from a donor area and implanting them into thinning or balding areas for natural-looking results.

This hair restoration procedure is ideal for patients who want an effective solution with minimal downtime, natural results, and lasting outcomes.

What Are the Benefits of NeoGraft?

NeoGraft offers unique advantages over traditional hair loss surgery, making it an appealing choice for many patients:

• No visible scarring: The FUE technology ensures no linear scar, allowing you to wear your hair short without worry.
• Natural-looking results: Transplanted follicles grow naturally in the new area, blending seamlessly with your existing hair.
• Minimally invasive: The procedure is a much gentler alternative to traditional hair transplant surgery, reducing discomfort and recovery time.
• Automated precision: The NeoGraft device enhances accuracy and consistency, improving results.
• Customizable: Suitable for both small and large areas of hair loss.

With these benefits, NeoGraft allows you to achieve fuller hair permanently without the drawbacks of more invasive hair restoration methods.

How Is the Procedure Performed?

NeoGraft is a straightforward process designed for your comfort and convenience. At your consultation, Dr. Yamahata will assess your hair loss, discuss your goals, and create a personalized treatment plan.

Here’s what to expect during the procedure:

• Follicle Harvesting: Using the NeoGraft device, individual hair follicles are gently extracted from the donor area (typically the back of your head).
• Implantation: The harvested follicles are implanted into thinning or balding areas, following the natural growth pattern of your hair.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to minimize discomfort. Depending on the size of the treatment area, the procedure typically takes between 4 to 6 hours.

How Long Is Recovery?

NeoGraft’s minimally invasive nature means recovery is quicker than traditional hair restoration methods. Most patients experience mild swelling or redness, which subsides within a few days. Scabs will begin to form as healing begins and fall off within 2 weeks. Many patients return to work after 2 to 3 days and resume strenuous activities after about 2 weeks.

In the weeks following the procedure, it’s normal for the transplanted hair to shed as the follicles prepare for their new growth cycle—a sign that the process is progressing as expected. New hair growth begins a few months after the procedure, with full results becoming apparent after 9 to 12 months. Once the transplanted hair grows in, it is permanent, blending seamlessly with your natural hair for a fuller, more youthful look.

Are You a Good Candidate?

NeoGraft is suitable for a variety of patients. Ideal candidates include:

• Patients with thinning hair or bald spots caused by male or female pattern baldness
• Those seeking natural-looking results without visible scarring
• Men and women looking for a minimally invasive hair restoration solution
• People in good overall health with sufficient donor hair available for transplantation

A consultation with Dr. Yamahata is the best way to determine if NeoGraft is right for you. He will evaluate your hair loss and help you understand your options.
