Groundbreaking Developments for FUE Hair Transplant

This video shows Dr. Cole's new power extractor for follicular unit extraction in action. Using smaller punches, we can now safely remove more grafts in less time than ever before. This instrument allows Dr. Cole to extract over 2000 grafts an hour (minus donor site preparation time). This device is sure to revolutionize the hair transplant industry and make strip surgery, and resulting strip scars, obsolete in years to come.

Is there any chance that this new development will lower the cost of FUE in the future ?

@khalnak , Yes, it will reduce the cost by allowing more physicians to enter the field of FUE. It will increase the rate of extraction so that more grafts may be harvested. Finally, it will reduce staff costs. Initially, the costs of production will affect the cost adversely, but in time the cost is destined to decline.

We don't know yet...it depends on how many doctors will be willing to adopt the technique, you never know.

How is the rotation and the ammount of heat it produces good for a graft so small and fragile, what are the risk of drying the grafts when rotating at that speed.

These are important questions, as Dr Feller said, there is a big risk of drying them

Nice, this should reduce my next procedure time to one day. Lol not sure about the creepy music in the vid though.

supply side is still the stumbling block for transplants :(

Does this tool just make the punch or does it negotiate the hair grafts from the underlying structures as well?

@OnceUponAtimeInLeb, this price in India is very cheap...you should make a good research and price shouldn't be the reason you choose a surgeon...doctors in the US are much more expensive but they are the best. We have a lot of patient that comes for corrective work that have wished they came to us in the forst place and pay a little more to get a proper HT.
