Is Robotic FUE Faster Than Traditional FUE Hair Transplantation

November 8th, 2011

Q: Is Robotic FUE faster than traditional FUE hair transplants?

A: Yes. Although, the speed of removal per graft is about the same, the actual procedure time is shortened when using the robotic device. The ARTAS robotic FUE system has a longer set-up time, but this is more than offset by the fact that the robot doesn’t “tire” during longer procedures.
