Hair loss is a familiar problem for both men and women today. According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), around 50 million men and 30 million women in the U.S. are suffering from thinning hair. While the issue is not typically a significant medical concern, the psychological impact of hair loss can be substantial, affecting an individual’s personal and professional lives. Today, there is a procedure that offers natural and permanent hair restoration with precision not achieved with other hair transplant techniques. NeoGraft is now available at Cheng Plastic Surgery, giving our patients another option for creating a fuller, more youthful head of hair.
Advantages of NeoGraft
We have different reasons for choosing NeoGraft for hair transplants in San Jose at Cheng Plastic Surgery:
- FUE using NeoGraft is less invasive than other methods of hair transplantation
- The procedure involves little or no discomfort for the patient
- Less bleeding than with other hair transplantation procedures
- Recovery time is brief, with most patients returning to activities the next day
- Because there is no incision used, no staples or sutures are required
- No linear scarring is left behind after the procedure
- Patients have flexibility in hairstyles, with the ability to wear hair long or short
- Results look and feel natural
Our plastic surgeons will assess your specific needs and desired results to determine whether NeoGraft is the right fit for you. Some patients may achieve the best outcome with a procedure known as hair rejuvenation with PRP. This process does not involve transplantation of hair but instead infuses the thinning area of the scalp with platelet-rich plasma and growth factors that stimulate current follicles to produce hair once again. We might also recommend a combination of FUE and PRP to provide you with the fullest head of hair possible.
