Advanced Hair Restoration with SmartGraft®
Achieve Natural Hair Density Again
Advanced hair restoration with SmartGraft is a minimally invasive follicular unit extraction (FUE) procedure that restores thinning or lost hair by transplanting healthy hair follicles from dense areas of your scalp into areas with reduced growth.
Using automated technology that protects graft quality, SmartGraft helps support natural-looking density, consistent placement, and efficient treatment. Because the hair follicles are harvested individually rather than through strip surgery, healing is typically quicker and more comfortable. The result is fuller hair that grows naturally over time and blends with your existing hair.
Advanced Hair Restoration With SmartGraft Corrects:
- Thinning hair on the scalp
- Male and female pattern hair loss
- Receding hairlines
- Crown and vertex balding
- Patchy hair loss areas
- Hair loss from traction or tension
- Sparse or uneven beard growth
- Thinning or overplucked eyebrows
- Areas affected by minor scarring
- Uneven hair density distribution
SmartGraft FUE vs. Linear Harvesting
SmartGraft follicular unit extraction differs from linear strip harvesting in technique and tissue impact. Instead of removing a strip of scalp with a scalpel, FUE isolates individual follicular units using a micro-punch, preserving the integrity of surrounding tissue. This reduces inflammatory response, supports faster epithelial healing, and lowers tension on the donor area.
SmartGraft also maintains follicles in a controlled environment that stabilizes hydration and temperature, helping protect cellular viability. The result is consistent graft survival, shorter recovery, and natural growth patterns without the trauma associated with strip excision.

How Hair Restoration With SmartGraft Works
Hair restoration with SmartGraft uses follicular unit extraction technology to relocate viable hair follicles from donor regions of your scalp into areas affected by thinning. The system separates the follicular units using a precision punch device while maintaining a stable temperature. This protects the cellular structures within the hair follicles, including the dermal papilla and stem cell-rich bulge region responsible for initiating hair growth cycles.
Once harvested, grafts are sorted and implanted into strategically created recipient sites that match your growth angle, direction, and density pattern. Because each follicular unit contains its sebaceous gland, connective tissue, and growth matrix, it retains the biological programming of the donor area. This allows transplanted follicles to continue producing hair long-term, following the normal anagen, catagen, and telogen growth phases after healing.
Advanced Hair Restoration With SmartGraft FAQs
How long does the procedure take?
Treatment typically lasts 5 to 8 hours, depending on the number of grafts being transplanted.
When will you see hair growth?
You may notice initial growth within 3 to 4 months. Visible improvement commonly appears around 6 months, while fuller results develop gradually over 6 to 12 months.
Will transplanted hair look natural?
Yes. Each follicular unit is placed individually to match your existing hair’s angle, direction, and distribution. This helps ensure your results blend seamlessly with surrounding hair.

What is recovery like after a hair transplant?
The donor area typically heals within 7–10 days with little to no visible scarring. The transplant area needs extra care for the first two weeks, when mild scabbing or itching is normal.
