• Robotic Hair Transplantation – Will ARTAS Grow The Field In a Safer Direction?

  In Archives, Hair Transplant / By tbtshow / 3 November 2014

  For decades surgical hair restoration has been a very specialized field. In order to perform truly state-of-the-art hair transplantation it takes a great deal of experience and an extremely well trained staff of assistants. With the advent of these so-called automated devices, industry is selling complete novices on the notion that incorporating hair transplantation into any cosmetic surgery practice is now possible with a simple turnkey solution.

  Spencer Kobren and Joe Tillman give their perspective on the future of surgical hair restoration and provide their views on the direction of the field and how it effects prospective hair transplant patients.

  Remember, even with the latest and greatest technology, the end result of any hair transplant is dependent on the skill and experience of the hair transplant surgeon and their staff. Do your homework and always check with The American Hair Loss Association or the IAHRS before considering consulting with any hair transplant clinic.

• Safer and Better Hair Transplants? Removing Some Human Variables Might Make All The Difference

  In Archives, Hair Transplant / By tbtshow / 31 August 2014

  Spencer Kobren speaks with IAHRS accepted member Dr. Glenn Charles about the future of surgical hair restoration, and if robotic devices like The ARTAS hair transplant system might someday make hair transplantation a more universally accepted treatment for common androgenic alopecia. Will removing some of the human variables that exist today produce more consistent and reproducible results? Only time will tell, but there is no doubt that if a device can be manufactured that reduces the chance of human error, while helping to produce truly refined cosmetic results, this will be a true game changer.

  Vic from DC calls the show to discuss how Spencer’s advice not to rush into surgery gave him the opportunity to reflect on whether or not having a hair transplant was the right decision for him. He credits the show for helping him become the person he is today, and thanked Kobren for his candid and empowering perspective during a time when Vic believed he was at his most vulnerable.
