NeoGraft FUE Hair Transplant Sydney - Hair Restoration

Our New Growth Hair Institute uses innovative NeoGraft hair transplant technology. The FUE method of hair transplantation removes individual hair follicles from the scalp in their naturally occurring groupings of about 1-4 hairs and then place them in the areas of the scalp where balding has occured

Hair Transplant Sydney

The decision to address hair loss is personal and can have various effects on daily interactions and aspects of life. We understand the importance of a treatment that aligns with each patient’s unique needs and expectations. At our clinic, we’ve chosen to offer the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) method utilising the NeoGraft Automated Hair Transplantation system. This method involves removing individual hair follicles from the scalp in their naturally occurring groupings and placing them in the areas where hair loss has occurred.

What is NeoGraft FUE Hair Transplant?

NeoGraft is an automated Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) system that individually extracts hair follicles from donor areas and transplants them to thinning hair or balding areas. This FDA-cleared technology uses pneumatic pressure to gently extract follicular units, minimising trauma to the grafts.

Our surgeons use the NeoGraft system to ensure each follicular unit is carefully preserved, maximising hair growth potential in the treated areas of the scalp. This minimally invasive procedure offers natural results without the linear scarring associated with traditional techniques.

Understanding Your Hair Loss Journey

Hair loss affects millions of Australians. Whether you're experiencing a receding hairline, crown thinning, or overall hair loss, NeoGraft FUE offers a permanent solution. As one of Sydney's certified NeoGraft providers, we offer this advanced hair transplant in Sydney with proven results. Our comprehensive approach addresses various patterns of hair loss, from early-stage thinning to advanced balding.

During your consultation, our NeoGraft-trained surgeons will assess your specific hair loss pattern, discuss your goals, and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.

What potential benefits does the NeoGraft hair transplantation procedure offer?

  • Minimally Invasive: NeoGraft is considered one of the least invasive procedures for hair transplantation, but like any procedure, it still carries potential risks and complications which should be discussed with your healthcare provider.
  • Hair Styling Flexibility: Following recovery, patients may have the flexibility to choose any hair style they prefer, short or long, but the full effects of the procedure may take some time to become apparent.
  • Natural Looking Results: The goal of the NeoGraft procedure is to restore the hairline with natural looking results. However, outcomes can vary depending on individual circumstances such as the extent of hair loss and the individual's hair growth pattern.
  • Discomfort: Many patients report feeling little to no discomfort during the NeoGraft procedure, although experiences may vary and some discomfort or sensitivity may be expected post-procedure.
  • No Stitches or Staples: The procedure does not typically involve the use of stitches or staples, potentially reducing associated recovery complications.
  • Minimal Scarring: The NeoGraft procedure aims to leave no unsightly or obvious scarring, although the extent of scarring can depend on individual healing responses.
  • Recovery Time: Recovery time is typically shorter with the NeoGraft procedure compared to some other hair transplantation methods. It is commonly expected to be about 72 hours, although individual recovery times may vary.

It’s important to remember that every individual is unique and so too are their needs and desired outcomes for cosmetic surgery. If you’re considering a procedure, it’s essential to have a comprehensive consultation with one of our experienced surgeons. They can help you understand whether you’re a suitable candidate and what you can realistically expect from the surgery. The information provided here is meant to help guide you, but it’s not a replacement for professional medical advice. Always organise a consultation for personalised advice.

If you are concerned about the way you look or are thinking about cosmetic surgery for confidence reasons, there are alternatives. Talking to a counsellor or psychologist may help you overcome your concerns about your appearance.

The FUE Procedure: What to Expect

Initial Assessment & Consultation

Our NeoGraft-trained surgeons begin by mapping the balding area and identifying optimal donor sites. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we calculate the precise number of grafts needed for your desired coverage. Most patients require between 1,500 to 4,000 follicular units, depending on the extent of hair loss.

Number and type of consultation
It is a requirement under the law, that a patient seeking cosmetic surgery must have at least two pre-operative consultations. The patient’s first consultation must be with the medical practitioner who will perform the surgery or another registered health practitioner who works with the medical practitioner who will perform the surgery (not a patient advisor or an agent). At least one of the two consultations must be in person with the medical practitioner who will perform the surgery. Other consultations can be in person or by video.

When consent can be given
A patient must not be requested to sign consent forms at their first consultation and cannot consent to cosmetic surgery until they have had an in-person consultation with the medical practitioner who will perform the surgery. The decision to have the surgery (provision of informed consent) must be made at a consultation with the medical practitioner who will perform the procedure (in person or by video).

Cooling-off Period
There must be a cooling-off period of at least seven days after the patient has had two consultations and given informed consent (signed consent forms), before the surgery can be booked or a deposit paid.

The NeoGraft Extraction Process

Using the NeoGraft automated system with controlled pneumatic pressure, our surgical team carefully extracts individual hair follicles from the donor area, typically the back and sides of your scalp. The NeoGraft device uses gentle suction to remove follicular units with minimal trauma, preserving their viability. Each follicular unit contains 1-4 hairs and is collected in a sterile canister system.

Strategic Implantation

Our surgeons meticulously place each graft in the recipient areas of the scalp, following your natural hair growth patterns. This precise approach to NeoGraft FUE hair transplantations ensures results that look completely natural, with proper density and direction.

Procedure Duration

Depending on the number of grafts, NeoGraft FUE procedures typically take 4-8 hours. The automated extraction process allows for efficient graft harvesting while maintaining quality. Larger sessions may be split across two days for patient comfort.

Your 12-Month Hair Growth Timeline After NeoGraft

Understanding the hair growth journey helps set realistic expectations. Here's what you can expect over 12 months following your NeoGraft FUE transplant in Sydney:

Days 1 - 14: Initial Recovery

  • Mild swelling and redness in treated areas
  • Tiny scabs form around transplanted follicles
  • Most patients return to work within 3-5 days

Weeks 2 - 6: Shedding Phase

  • Transplanted hairs naturally shed (this is normal and expected)
  • Hair follicles remain healthy beneath the surface
  • Donor area fully heals with minimal visible signs

Months 3 - 4: Early Growth

  • Fine new hairs begin emerging
  • Approximately 20-30% of final density visible
  • Hair texture may initially appear different

Months 6 - 9: Significant Progress

  • 50-70% of transplanted hairs are growing
  • Hair thickness and texture normalise
  • Coverage becomes noticeably improved

Month 12: Final Results

  • 90-95% of transplanted follicular units producing hair
  • Full density achieved in most areas of the scalp
  • Natural appearance fully established
Note: Crown areas may require up to 18 months for complete results.

Areas We Treat with NeoGraft

Our NeoGraft FUE hair transplantations effectively address hair loss in multiple areas of the scalp:

Hairline Restoration

Recreate a natural, age-appropriate hairline that frames your face. Our surgeons specialise in designing hairlines that complement your facial features, taking into account your natural hair growth patterns and facial structure for optimal results.

Temple Reconstruction

Fill in receded temples to restore balanced hair distribution across your scalp. Temple reconstruction requires precise angle placement and density calculations to ensure transplanted hair follows the natural direction and creates symmetrical results.

Crown Coverage

Address thinning or balding at the crown with strategic graft placement. This challenging area requires experienced surgeons who understand the unique growth patterns of crown hair, ensuring natural-looking coverage that blends seamlessly with existing hair.

Diffuse Thinning

For overall thinning hair, we distribute grafts strategically throughout affected areas of the scalp. This technique increases density while maintaining natural appearance, carefully placing follicular units between existing hairs to enhance overall coverage.

Considerations Before Cosmetic Surgery

While we aim to provide accurate information about the different surgical procedures available, it’s important to understand that the content provided here serves as a general guide only. The specifics of each surgery, including the procedure detailed above, can and will vary significantly from person to person, depending on their unique circumstances and physical characteristics.

Undergoing cosmetic surgery is a serious decision that requires ample thought, careful consideration, and meticulous planning. It should never be taken lightly or treated trivially, as it can have profound impacts on one’s lifestyle and wellbeing.

Recovery from cosmetic surgery, too, requires time, support, and proper aftercare. We strive to present realistic and transparent information about the recovery process, but individual experiences may vary. It is typical for recovery to involve certain services or requirements, such as the use of compression garments or receiving therapeutic massages. It also often necessitates significant lifestyle changes, which may include a period of absence from employment and temporary restrictions on certain activities.

In light of these considerations, we strongly encourage potential patients to engage in comprehensive discussions with their GP and our surgeons. The goal is to fully understand the implications, requirements, and likely outcomes of any chosen procedure, and to make informed decisions about their health and aesthetics.

General risks and complications

  • Substantial Hemorrhage: This involves severe blood loss from the area that underwent surgery, which may necessitate additional medical interventions.
  • Susceptibility to Infection: Post-surgery, the risk of infection can rise, potentially requiring either antibiotic treatment or subsequent surgical interventions.
  • Allergic Responses: Patients may exhibit allergic reactions to medical materials such as sutures, dressings, or antiseptic solutions used during and after the procedure.
  • Hematoma Formation: This involves the development of a sizable clot of blood beneath the incision site, which may necessitate medical drainage.
  • Post-Surgical Discomfort: Patients may experience pain, bruising, and swelling in the area surrounding the surgical site.
  • Scar Development: There's a risk of developing keloids or hypertrophic scars, which are elevated, red, and thickened scars over the healed incisions. Though they can be bothersome and aesthetically displeasing, they don't pose a direct health threat.
  • Delayed Healing Process: Healing can be sluggish, especially in patients with pre-existing conditions like diabetes or those who smoke.
  • Anaesthesia Risks: Patients may experience short-term nausea following general anaesthesia, along with other potential risks associated with anaesthesia.

Hair Transplant risks and complications

  • Follicle Survival Uncertainty: Not all transplanted follicles may survive the transfer process, which can affect the overall outcome and potentially require additional treatments.
  • Infection at Donor or Transplant Site: While this risk is generally low, it's possible for the donor site or the transplant site to develop an infection which would require treatment.
  • Scarring: Although Neograft aims to minimize scarring, some patients may still develop small scars in the donor area or the transplant site.
  • Hair Shading Variance: There may be slight differences in shading or texture between your original hair and the newly transplanted hair.
  • Unnatural Appearance: The transplanted hair may not look as natural as expected, especially if the transplant site is not prepared properly or the procedure is not conducted appropriately.
  • Folliculitis: This refers to the inflammation or infection of the hair follicles, which can cause discomfort and may require treatment.
  • Shock Loss: This is a temporary loss of transplanted as well as some of the healthy hair around the transplant area, caused by trauma from the surgical procedure. It's usually temporary, with hair growth resuming in a few weeks or months.
  • Structural Instability: The support structure of the nose may weaken, leading to a flattened appearance of the nose. This could also result in complications with any implanted materials, possibly causing them to protrude into the nose or through the skin, and potential narrowing of major airways that may result in difficulty breathing.
