What is ARTAS Robotic Hair Transplant?

The ARTAS iX system uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and robotic precision to perform FUE hair transplantation. The robot identifies optimal donor grafts, calculates extraction patterns to maintain donor density, and harvests follicular units with consistent precision.

How ARTAS Robotic Hair Transplant Works

1

The ARTAS system uses multiple cameras and AI to create a 3D model of your scalp.

2

Algorithms identify optimal follicular units for extraction based on hair angle, direction, and density.

3

The robotic arm extracts follicular units with consistent punch depth and angle.

4

Harvested grafts are stored in a chilled solution.

5

The surgeon creates recipient sites (manually or robot-assisted) and places grafts.

6

AI-guided extraction patterns preserve donor area uniformity.

Advantages

  • Consistent, precise extraction
  • AI-optimized donor harvesting
  • Less operator fatigue in long sessions
  • Detailed 3D scalp mapping
  • FDA-cleared technology

Limitations

  • Highest cost option
  • Limited to straight/wavy hair (not ideal for curly/afro hair)
  • Fewer clinics offer ARTAS
  • Robotic extraction may be slightly slower
  • Still requires skilled surgeon for recipient work

Who Is ARTAS Robotic Hair Transplant Best For?

Patients who want cutting-edge technology, those with straight or wavy hair, and patients who value consistency in large-session extractions.

Alternatives to ARTAS Robotic Hair Transplant

Manual FUE

Manual FUE is more versatile (works on all hair types), costs less, and in skilled hands matches robotic precision.

DHI offers superior precision for implantation, which ARTAS does not automate. Consider DHI for hairline-focused work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ARTAS better than manual FUE?

ARTAS offers more consistent extraction in large sessions and reduces operator fatigue. However, experienced manual FUE surgeons can match or exceed robotic results. ARTAS is not suitable for curly or afro-textured hair.

How much does ARTAS cost?

ARTAS procedures range from $7,000–$25,000 in the US. The premium reflects the technology cost. Fewer clinics offer ARTAS internationally, limiting price competition.

Does the robot do the entire transplant?

No. ARTAS assists with extraction only. The surgeon handles recipient site creation and graft placement — the most artistically critical steps.
