What is NeoGraft Hair Transplant?
NeoGraft is a hair transplant procedure that harvests healthy hair follicles from an area of healthy growth and transplants individual follicles to the receding hairline. The NeoGraft hair transplant surgery is considered a “touchless” method, as it is automated. This hair restoration surgery leaves the hair follicles in a more healthy and robust state, providing the hair surgeon with efficient, successful, and repeatable results. It also provides his patients with natural-looking and feeling heads of hair with no linear scar to see or feel.
What Are the Benefits of NeoGraft Hair Transplant?
There are many benefits to NeoGraft, including:
- Minimal discomfort
- No scalp incision to get infected
- No sutures or staples
- No linear scar to heal or later see or feel
- Little or no risk of complications
- Quicker recovery time
- Fewer activity and sports limitation
- A more natural-looking result
- A more natural-feeling result
The primary benefit of NeoGraft is improved confidence. Many of our patients try to hide hair loss with hats or scarves, experiencing hardship daily and wishing for a full head of hair. Hair restoration is a highly-sought-after treatment for its high patient satisfaction and ability to provide maximum value by reducing self consciousness and providing natural results.

The staff and service at Rivela Plastic Surgery were top notch for my hair restoration treatment. I typically have high anxiety for medical procedures, but the care I received during my procedure made it go very smoothly and I have been very pleased with the result.
What Methods Are Available for Hair Transplant?
There are several methods used for Houston hair transplants for new hair growth, including the “Strip Harvesting” method of hair restoration and the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method. The NeoGraft hair-restoration technique is an FUE procedure.
Modern hair transplant surgeries encompass aspects of both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. Please, choose your hair doctor or surgeon wisely, and be sure to do your homework and research. At Rivela Plastic Surgery, we know your final hairline results and your brand-new hair growth are highly dependent on the artistry and skill of your surgeon and his trained staff.
“Strip Method” Hair Restoration
From a surgical standpoint, the strip harvesting method of hair transplantation is more involved and is a much more aggressive surgical procedure with more potential medical complications, more health restrictions, and longer downtime.
This older method of hair transplantation and restoration also involves shaving a section of the scalp as a donor, but instead of automatically extracting hair grafts at random, in this method, the surgeon then uses a scalpel to cut two linear incisions above and below the donor area and then surgically removes out a long linear section of the scalp.
Next, the excised portion of the harvested shaved scalp is divided up and placed under microscopes, where technicians using sharp blades separate grafts into divided units of one to four hairs. While the hair technicians are separating the grafts, the hair surgeon closes the incision with staples or sutures. At that point, the surgeon and the team of hair technicians move to prepare the recipient site and front hairline. The grafts are then placed by hand.
What is the NeoGraft Hair Restoration Procedure Like?
With NeoGraft hair extraction and implantation procedure at Rivela Plastic Surgery in the Woodlands, TX, there is less bleeding and fewer complications than with the strip method used in most other medical hair-loss solutions. NeoGraft hair restoration for the treatment of male pattern baldness or thinning hair is a very safe, minimally invasive, relatively minor procedure. No skin is removed during the procedure, unlike most other Houston hair transplants.
The NeoGraft procedure performed in our Woodlands office uses a small amount of local anesthetic. We also offer the Pro-Nox system, which allows patients to safely administer a 50/50 mix of nitrous oxide and oxygen gas. This analgesic allows patients to ease any pain, discomfort, and anxiety themselves. It takes effect very quickly, and recovery from the gas is also very quick.
After the donor site is prepared, the NeoGraft medical device is used to skillfully extract individual hair follicles from the donor site using a tiny 1 mm punch. When enough follicles are extracted at random, the hair transplant procedure moves to the front of the head, transplanting each individual hair graft with the same individually automated system.
After our NeoGraft hair transplant, there is no visible linear scarring to make it difficult for our patients to wear their hair short. As part of the NeoGraft hair transplantation procedure, the donor site is selected on the back of the head, and then shaved. Many times with longer hair, the shaved donor site is completely hidden. With larger hair transplant cases, a larger area is shaved, but afterward, the hair grows back naturally.
